<aside> ❓ I am not sure if I am qualified to write Credit Analysis Memos, should I still apply??

<aside> ❓ Once I have applied, what are the next steps?

Very important: The only email address that will be used to contact participants is [email protected]. Announcement of shortlisted candidates will be made on this dedicated Discord channel. BEWARE OF SCAMMERS!

After you submit an application form, you will be contacted for an interview if you are shortlisted. The interview will focus on discussing your abilities and previous work experience. Based on the interview, you may be selected to receive a grant as a Credit Analyst. If so, you will be given access to all needed information about the borrower pool you will be analyzing and you will be invited to start writing your Credit Analysis Memo. Once completed, your Credit Analysis Memo will be reviewed by the Credit Analysis Grant Committee who will provide feedback before you finalize the document. After your final Credit Analysis Memo is handed over, you will receive payment.

<aside> ❓ I have not heard back on my application yet, can I get an update?

After you submit the application form, if you land on a confirmation page saying "Thank you for your interest. Someone will be contacting you shortly.“ then your application has been received. If you have not heard back after three weeks then you can request an update through the dedicated Discord channel.
