If you are currently employed as a software developer, we invite you to participate by taking a survey measuring your personality and burnout to help us gain a better understanding of the subject. The survey should take no more than 5-10 minutes to complete. A link to the survey may be found below.</span></div><br class=""><div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" class=""><a href="https://goo.gl/forms/cOmsqJlAmVUaW3zq1" style="text-decoration: none;" class=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(17, 85, 204); font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; text-decoration: underline; -webkit-text-decoration-skip: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;" class="">https://goo.gl/forms/cOmsqJlAmVUaW3zq1</span></a></div><br class=""><div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;" class=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;" class="">Your survey response will be anonymous and strictly confidential, and all data collected will be reported only in aggregate.
