黄色视频 application tips

The 黄色视频 application process

Submitting an application of any kind can be a stressful process. Here at 黄色视频, we want to make our application process as smooth as possible. Here’s a checklist of application tips to use as a guide for bringing your best self through.

Don’t hesitate to contact us

Use your recruiter as a resource and contact us with any questions or concerns you may have. We’re here for you!

Proofread

This cannot be stressed enough. Proofread, proofread, and then proofread some more! Review each section of your application multiple times for spelling, word choice, grammar and content. When you’re done, have a trusted friend or family member read through your application again with a fresh set of eyes. Remember, the application does not spell check your answers for you.

Utilize your short answer responses

Your short answer responses paint a more in-depth and personal picture of who you are. Your responses will allow our admissions team to learn more about you, so make sure to write not only about what you’ve accomplished, but also what you’ve learned along the way. When answering these questions, take it as an opportunity to display your strong writing skills and your ability to help students reach their full potential.

Remember to choose quality over quantity as each short answer response has a recommended sentence limit. Plus, you will have a chance to further elaborate during your interview. Last but not least, honesty is of the utmost importance! If you plagiarize in any way, you will automatically be rejected.

List all work and volunteer experiences

In the “Work and Volunteer Experience” section, make sure to list all volunteer and work experiences. These experiences illustrate your commitment over time. Make sure to include any leadership or tutoring positions you’ve held as well. Lastly, make sure to include any and all AmeriCorps services in which you’ve participated. Mark yes, even if you have only served one term or a part-time term.

Must have a professional reference

Although we’re sure your friends and family are amazing and that they love you, they unfortunately cannot serve as your reference. A possible reference can be, but is not limited to, a current or previous employer, volunteer supervisor, teacher, professor, coach, counselor or advisor. The reference section asks you to provide contact information for one reference.

Once you add and save a reference’s contact information to your application, your reference will automatically receive an email containing a link to the reference form. Be sure to give your reference a heads up before saving information to your application so your reference is aware of the reference request and can look out for the email.

Interviewing

Connect virtually with your Recruiter to talk about your experiences, skills, and interests to prepare for your interview.

Check your email often

We will send you application updates and announcements via email throughout the application process. It is critical that you have a working email address and that you check it frequently.

Resumes

While submitting your resume is not required, it is strongly encouraged. Resumes can be uploaded directly to your application.
