Peace Corps Application Deadline for November Interview Dates

Peace Corps Regional Recruiter Ken Surdin will be coming to the IU Bloomington Career Development Center to interview candidates for Volunteer positions on Thursday, November 15th, 2007. Additional interview times will be reserved for Friday, November 16th. In order to schedule an interview for one of these dates, a completed application must be submitted by Thursday, November 1st, 2007.

The Peace Corps is looking for Volunteers from a variety of backgrounds to fill positions in education, agriculture, the environment, business, health, IT, and community services. After receiving intensive language, cross-cultural, and technical training, Volunteers serve overseas in a developing country for 2 years. Living expenses are covered, and at the end of their service, Volunteers receive a readjustment allowance and access to a number of great career and educational opportunities. If you would like to be considered for Peace Corps Volunteer positions leaving during the summer or early fall 2008, we strongly recommend that you submit your application by the November 1st deadline.

To start your application, simply go to www.peacecorps.gov and click on the "Apply Now" tab. If you are interested in applying, but you may not be able to meet the deadline, please contact IU Peace Corps Campus Representative Brett Kuhnert via e-mail at peace@indiana.edu, or phone at 812-856-1864. Otherwise, if you would like more information about becoming a Peace Corps Volunteer, our next General Information Meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 14th from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. on the IU Bloomington Campus in Jordan Hall, Room A106.
