Application Advice

Looking to join ESW? Here are some tips to help you put together a strong application and show us what you can bring to the organization.

We encourage applicants to highlight their interests, experiences, and enthusiasm for sustainability. Whether you have extensive technical experience or are just getting started, we value curiosity, commitment, and a willingness to learn.

Know the team you're applying to

Take some time to look through our projects and understand what each team works on. Attend information sessions and sign up for coffee chats! A thoughtful application shows that you have considered where your interests and skills align with ESW's work.

Connect your experience to ESW

Think about how your background and skills could contribute to ESW. Whether you have experience with CAD, Python, outreach, research, design, or something completely different, reflect how you could apply those skills to the team.

Be genuine.

There is no "perfect" ESW applicant. We want to get to know you-including your interests, experiences, and reasons for wanting to make an impact through sustainability.
