All other regions and international: May 9, 2008 

Candidates are strongly encouraged to apply earlier if possible.

3. First Interview: Based on the application and essay, candidates will be invited to conduct a 1st round interview (either in-person or over the phone) with a Green Corps representative. We will contact you to schedule this interview. We respond to every application, so check your junk-mail filter if you do not receive an email from us.

Supporting Materials (Optional)
Please attach to an e-mail any supporting materials that you would like us to consider, and put your name and "Supporting Materials" in the subject of the email. We need to receive optional supporting materials within two weeks of the 2nd Round Interview that works best for you, but not at the time of your application. These may include short writing samples, news clips of your activities, written references, and materials you have produced. Please e-mail your supporting materials as an attachment to jobs@greencorps.org.
