Does applying guarantee work?

No. Application is an expression of interest. It does not establish admission, availability, a public profile or a paid assignment.

Do I need to be an HCI Talks member?

Advisory participation is a separate choice. Community membership and editorial participation do not automatically qualify anyone as an adviser.

Can I participate while employed?

Only where your employment terms, professional duties and other obligations permit it. Permissions and conflicts must be checked for each engagement.

Will my profile be published?

No public profile is created by this application. Sharing a biography for matching or publishing it requires separate permission.

Is this a recruitment application?

No. Advisory, community membership and recruitment are separate choices. Any recruitment process needs fresh consent and a separate mandate.
