No. We care about curiosity, consistency, and communication more than prior experience. Newcomers are equally welcome — just show us what you want to build and complete the beginner-friendly Week 1 challenge.

The challenge is unpaid. The value is real: portfolio work, verifiable role titles, community membership, references at 55%+ progress, and a shot at the internship. The internship itself (Oct–Jan) is also unpaid but comes with a real team, real projects, and priority for future paid roles at antcpu.

~5 hours per week. Fully remote. Flexible schedule. The challenge is designed to fit around your existing commitments — not replace them.

Yes. antcpu is a global program. No location requirements. All you need is an internet connection and the drive to show up.

Communicate. Disappearing without a word is the only real disqualifier. Life happens — just tell us and we'll work with you.

You're welcomed into the antcpu Builders Network — Discord access, learning tracks, beta testing opportunities, and priority consideration for future cohorts. Every role you earned stays on your CV. The journey doesn't end on Sep 30.
