First of all, we at the Work First Foundation hope that everyone reading this is staying safe during the current global health crisis. We recognize that many applicants to the Work First Fellowship are current graduating seniors at universities and colleges across the country, many of whom are facing some hard and difficult situations right now. We wish you all luck and safety as you manage emergency move-outs, transitions to online classes, and the cancellations of important senior year moments and experiences. For those currently in the recruitment process for the Work First Fellowship, we encourage you to reach out with any questions or concerns and will try our best to accommodate your needs. No matter what, we encourage everyone regardless of where you are to follow the recommendations of the CDC, local and state governments, and social distancing best practices in order to help us all overcome the pandemic as quickly and safely as possible.

The Work First Recruitment Team has made the decision to extend the deadline for the Work First Fellowship application until further notice. This means that we will continue accepting and reviewing applications on a rolling, first-come basis.

As always, if you have any questions, we encourage you to email recruitment@theworkfirst.org and we look forward to continuing to receive your applications through our online application.
