UX audit of our https://codeforphilly.org/volunteer page #94
Description
Currently, many parts of codeforphilly.org direct people to our volunteer page (https://codeforphilly.org/volunteer). Since this page is so central to getting started, making it easier to follow may go a long way toward helping people get started.
I am a UX barbarian, so if you are a content writer, or interested in UX / a UX practitioneer, please reach out on the Code for Philly #cfp-homepage-redesign channel!
Big questions:
- What do people want to do when they reach this page? (assuming they want to join a project, or connect with the CfP community e.g. via slack)
- How long does it take them to get through the page?
- Are there any tricky points? (e.g. I tried to click the steps at the top of the page, but they are not links, but I might not be very representative)
- How could we make this easier / feel better?

Talking to Kat at hacknight. Currently, the page encourages people to do this workflow:
We should change step (1) to be looking at the projects on the homepage, so they don't risk looking around a lot of old, inactive projects.
Potential changes
One other Micahel thought: hackforla has a great first step (attend an onboarding session). Is our onboarding right now happening when someone joins slack? I wonder if that should be our first step?

Related to #95, since we should update the onboarding page as when we/right after updating the project cards on the homepage.
