    The Application Process
    CLASP has engaged Equitable Hiring Group to support this hiring process. To apply, please complete the short form to the right.

    Individuals who apply by Tuesday, March 26th, will be given priority; therefore, we encourage you to submit yours soon

    When you apply, we kindly ask you to remove your schools from your resume. There is no need to reformat your resume and leave your degree as is; simplify it to "B.A. Economics," for example. Just remember to remove any undergraduate and graduate school name references where possible. This "bias-reduced" process is aimed at opening this opportunity to more candidates, reviewing applicants on performance assessments instead of resume proxies (e.g., where you went to school).

    This evaluation process will follow practices shown to reduce bias in decision-making and may be different from other application processes you have experienced.

    The overall evaluation process will look to follow this anticipated timeline:
    • Late March: Selected candidates asked to complete short answer questions
    • Early April: Video interview with CLASP Staff
    • Mid-April: Finalist candidates will be asked to complete a timed trial assignment
    • Late April: Finalists will participate in a multi-team member panel interview
      • Candidate references will also be checked at this step
    • Late April: Offer extended
    If you have any questions about the opportunity, please feel free to email [email protected].
