[AI] Invitation to Apply for I-Stem Fellowship 2023 for Students and young professionals with Disabilities
Dear all, I hope you all are doing well. I am writing to introduce you to an exciting opportunity for students with disabilities: the I-Stem Fellowship Program 2023. The I-Stem Fellowship Program aims to empower individuals with disabilities by providing them with the necessary resources, support, and opportunities to excel in the corporate world. It strives to change the discourse around disability and highlight the abilities of these remarkable individuals. The program welcomes students and young professionals with visible or invisible disabilities from various backgrounds and fields of study. Key Features of the I-Stem Fellowship Program: 1. Personalized Career Coaching and Consulting: Each fellow receives one-on-one mentoring from an I-Stem core team member who works closely with them for a year, helping to develop a tailored plan to achieve their career goals. Additionally, fellows are paired with industry mentors who provide further guidance and support. 2. Paid Internship Opportunities with I-Stem: A highlight of the fellowship program is a two-month practical internship with I-Stem. This experiential opportunity allows fellows to engage with mentors from our corporate partners and work on real-life projects, gaining invaluable industry experience aligned with their specific areas of interest. 3. Training and Certification: Based on the fellow's goals, they may be recommended for specialized training and certification programs. In some cases, financial support is provided to help them complete these programs successfully. 4. Community Mentorship: Fellows join the vibrant I-Stem community, which consists of over 4,000 members, including successful professionals from various industries. This community offers networking opportunities and a platform for fellows to connect, learn, and collaborate. Moreover, fellows join the exclusive I-Stem Fellows community, which grants access to special events and unique opportunities. 5. Interview Preparation: I-Stem provides comprehensive interview preparation materials and conducts mock interviews to equip fellows with the skills and confidence needed to excel in technical interviews. 6. Invitation to I-Stem Partners' Event: The selected fellow will be granted a fully paid trip to our partners' event in Bangalore, held in December. This event offers invaluable learning and networking opportunities with corporate partners, successful professionals with and without disabilities, and much more. 7. Connections with Corporate Partners: I-Stem has established close relationships with numerous corporate partners. While placement cannot be guaranteed upon completion of the fellowship, I-Stem works diligently with each fellow to help them find suitable job opportunities and facilitates connections as needed. Corporate mentors also advocate for fellows within their organizations, where applicable. Eligibility Criteria: Any student or young professional with a visible or invisible disability, residing in India, is eligible to apply. Work experience should be less than four years. Selection Process: The selection process consists of two stages: - Step 1: Completion of the online fellowship application form (June 1st - June 30th). - Step 2: Thirty finalists will be invited for interviews, commencing from July 15th onwards. From these interviews, twenty exceptional fellows will be chosen based on their application and interview performance. I kindly request you all to support in promoting the I-Stem Fellowship Program 2023 within your network. Encourage students and young professionals with disabilities to explore this remarkable opportunity to enhance their skills, receive personalized mentorship, and connect with industry professionals. By highlighting the abilities and talents of individuals with disabilities, we can work together to create a more inclusive society.
