dbAchieve Summer 2019 Application

I am a rising sophomore at a semi/nontarget. I'm really interested in the dbAchieve program. Any insights on the recruitment process for this program from past participants? What is db looking for? Advice on what to write/mention in the essay? "If you are interested, submit your resume and a short 500 word essay telling us how your commitment to diversity, in all its forms, makes you the ideal candidate for dbAchieve." I have some idea on what i would like to write, But would appreciate any other perspectives! thanks

Hey, I went through the process last year, I'm doing dbAchieve this upcoming summer. Basically, the process was send in you resume and essay, skype interview, then superday. This all happened within a week, and offers were out same day. PM me if you have more questions.
