You&#8217;ll be required to supply all the information required of you on the Application Form before proceeding to submit it.

After all the applicants have submitted their applications, the next stage is the selection process. During the selection process, an independent talent management company reviews all the submitted applications of applicants to produce a long list of candidates after which they would be required to go through a series of aptitude tests and assessments. You are a successful candidate if the programme communicates with you afterwards. So, if you don&#8217;t get the feedback you know you weren&#8217;t selected to be a Fellow of the programme. The successful Fellows will then be matched to host organizations in their chosen fields. In some cases, Fellows may be placed in host organizations outside their field of discipline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><strong>How to Apply for Nigeria Jubilee Fellows Programme as a Host Organization\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since the Nigeria Jubilee Fellows Programme seeks to connect young talents with local job opportunities, private and public sector organizations across various industries can apply to provide Fellows with a meaningful fully paid 12-month placement opportunity.
