Individual contributor, closest to the work
Your knowledge of the work is the intelligence everyone else is missing.
No system log captures the workaround you built, the exception you handle every Friday, or the reason the process actually works the way it does. VARA is built to have that conversation with you directly — on your schedule, in your words — and treat what you know as real intelligence, not just an idea in a suggestion box.
What IntakeOS does for you.
- 1Your input is verified, structured, and attributed — it becomes part of the permanent record, not a forgotten ticket
- 2You see what happens next: the opportunity you described gets scored, ranked, and tracked
- 3A guided conversation, not a blank form — VARA asks the questions that actually matter
- 4About 45 minutes, on your own schedule, in the tool you already use — Slack, Teams, email, or chat
“Government modernization usually fails because it ignores the workforce. IntakeOS succeeded because the workforce designed it.”
Commissioner, U.S. Public Sector

Short answers to the questions Individual contributor, closest to the work teams raise before taking IntakeOS further.
What is an IntakeOS interview actually like?
It is a chat, not a form. VARA asks about how the work really runs - the steps, the exceptions, the workarounds - and follows up on the answers. It takes about 45 minutes, on your own schedule, in the browser or in Slack, Teams, or email.
Do I need to know anything about automation to take part?
No. You describe the work you do in your own words; the platform handles pattern selection, scoring, and documentation. Knowing where the process breaks is the expertise being asked for.
What happens to what I describe?
It becomes a structured, attributed record: your process is scored, ranked against other candidates, and tracked - and you can see what happened to it. It does not vanish into a suggestion box.
Is this evaluating me or the process?
The process. Scoring measures volumes, complexity, exception rates, and value - properties of the work itself. Nothing in the intake grades individual performance.
