+## Process
+After submission of the signed CLA, a manual process must be run to add the github handle into the
+[contributors](https://github.com/trinodb/cla/blob/master/contributors) file.  
+Once that is done, the `cla-bot` will pass the checks on any pull requests submitted from that github handle.
+If the bot does not automatically check, you may manually trigger a check with commenting `cla-bot check` on the PR.
