TheLaunch looks for curious and passionate students eager about their creative ideas. As such, we expect that great potential candidates demonstrate this drive in their applications and throughout the whole recruiting process via coffee chats and individual interviews.

In the initial application, we encourage the following tips to be followed for the resume:

• List any relevant internships and leadership extracurriculars you held while at school
• Include volunteer/community activities
• Include your GPA if it demonstrates good academic standing
• Limit your resume to one page
• Leave out your high school information (if you are not a new first-year student)
• You should not include any photos in your resume, including your headshot
• Pay extra attention to formatting. In our application, simple is best.
• Use bullets instead of paragraphs, and a nice clean font.
• Quantify your accomplishments in your experiences and demonstrate how your qualifications can be applicable towards the initiative position(s) you applied for.

TheLaunch seeks applicants who are motivated, driven, and share a passion for startups and VC. Be ready to talk about who you are, why you are interested in TheLaunch, and what makes you a qualified candidate. And most importantly, just be yourself!

Submitting this application is the first step for a candidate to start their recruiting process at TheLaunch. The application consists of basic personal information, a resume, and a short written prompt.

From there, our recruitment team will invite certain candidates to group interviews and final interviews.
