IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT APPLICATION SUBMISSIONS

Please read and follow the directions as they are stated. Here are some key updates for the application process and general reminders:

  • The application must be postmarked on or before the due date.
  • The resume must be formatted as per the instructions noted.
  • Work experience forms must be complete. You should review them before putting them in the package to ensure your current/previous employer completed them as per the instructions.
  • You must include your official transcripts in the package. We will not accept transcripts sent separately. They do not need to be "sealed" as long as they are official.
  • We retain records for five years. If you are unsure when your last application submission occurred please call us to verify your records are still on file.
  • We do not confirm receipt of applications over the telephone. Please read the application instructions and choose a method that will allow for delivery verification.  We do not sign for packages or letters.

It is very important that you don't wait until the last minute to submit your materials.  Plan and prepare ahead.  The handling of any application is always the first impression of a process when applying for any college, training plan, internship or job.  FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS!

 

 

Your completed application, including all required college transcripts and/or Work Experience Equivalency Forms, must be postmarked on or before the deadline date.  See the application for more detailed information. NOTE TO PREVIOUS APPLICANTS: CHANGES HAVE CAN BE MADE EACH YEAR TO THE APPLICATION AND DEADLINES DIFFER FROM PAST YEARS.  READ CAREFULLY!  All documents for this application must be included in the package mailed.  TRANSCRIPTS AND OTHER PARTS MAY NOT BE SENT SEPARATELY. 

 

Application

Your completed Application, including all required College Transcripts and/or Work Experience Equivalency Forms, must be postmarked on or before the deadline date.  We do not accept faxed, emailed, or hand delivered application materials.  You may send the application materials “Track & Confirm” via USPS and track your delivery status online.  You may use any alternative delivery service that will allow for you to track the package online or via a customer service phone number. WE WILL NOT ACCEPT PACKAGES REQUIRING SIGNATURES!  You may also include a self-addressed, stamped envelope or postcard and upon receipt of your materials, we will mail it back to you.  This will only confirm receipt, not completeness or acceptance.  We will not acknowledge receipt of applications via telephone.  Please do not attach documents together with staples or any other binding. 

 

Evaluation Period

All complete applications postmarked by the deadline will be reviewed by our Selection Committee from November through February.  Please do not send additional materials during this period. 

 

Notifications

Each applicant will be notified by mail in mid February whether or not they will proceed to the next step in the selection process. 

 

Group Assessment

Selected Candidates will be invited to a one-day Assessment Center to be held in Los Angeles during April or May.  Candidates must travel at their own expense if they are not already residents of Los Angeles. 

 

Individual Interviews

A select group of Candidate Finalists who have successfully completed the Assessment Center will be invited to be interviewed by a Committee of the Board of Trustees during the week following the Assessment Center (April or May).
