Application Procedures for the Atlas Corps Fellowship (How to Apply):
Atlas Corps accepts applications continuously throughout the year, but they occasionally conduct targeted recruitment campaigns that prioritize candidates with specific high-demand backgrounds. To stay updated on deadlines and opportunities, applicants should visit apply.atlascorps.org.
Due to the high volume of applications received monthly, the overall vetting process may take 1 to 3 months to complete. To ensure timely consideration, applicants are encouraged to apply by a priority deadline if mentioned on the website for a particular opportunity.
The application process entails:
- A copy of the applicant’s undergraduate transcript or diploma, which is not mandatory to submit the initial application but required for the final stages of the selection process.
- Two references: Applicants need to provide contact details for two references, who will receive an email with instructions to fill out the reference form. These forms do not need to be completed during the initial application, but they are necessary for advancing to the final stages of selection. Strong applicants typically choose supervisors or managers who can provide detailed insights into their professional abilities.
- Samples of the applicant’s work: In some cases, applicants may be asked to provide work samples as evidence of their professional skills. Specific instructions can be found in the Skills section (Part 8) of the application.
- While attaching a resume/CV is highly recommended, it is not obligatory. Additionally, test scores or certificates from past training are not required at this stage. Moreover, having a valid passport is necessary, but there is no need to attach it to the initial application.
Application Deadline: July 30, 2023
