As it stands now, that involves mandatory weekly testing for individuals who are unvaccinated. Additionally, our current mask policy is that everyone wears masks when they are on-site regardless of status. If you are comfortable complying with either weekly testing or showing proof of vaccination, please submit your application for consideration. For roles that are remote and require no on-site work (including infrequent office visits), proof of vaccination or weekly testing is not required.
