The application form consists broadly of three components: eligibility questions, role-specific questions, and additional candidate information. The role-specific questions are applicants’ chance to explain their interest in the position to which they’ve chosen to apply. To develop thoughtful responses to these questions, we recommend applicants draft answers in a separate document and then paste them into the form. 

To complete the form, applicants will be required to sign into their Google Account — Google systems require sign-in when uploading documents to a form. 

After the application window closes on July 23rd, the Braver Angels Debate Team will contact candidates with first interview requests, which will take place between July 28th and August 1st. 

Applicants with any questions about the application or process may email debates@braverangels.org.
