How to Apply to an Organization or an Opportunity
Overview
Being approved for an opportunity allows you to:
-
Reserve shifts and track hours related to your involvement.
-
Access the dedicated opportunity chatroom (found under the Chat icon > See all > top-right of your portal).
There are two ways to become approved for an opportunity:
-
Submit an application form and wait for the organization to approve it.
-
Be assigned by an administrator at the organization directly (bypassing the need for an application).
Step 1: Find the Organization
If you’re already approved for at least one opportunity or you’ve accepted an invitation to join an organization’s portal:
-
The organization’s name will appear on your homepage (top-right).
-
Click View portal.
-
-
If you are not yet approved:
-
From the left-hand navigation, click Find an organization.
-
Enter at least 3 letters of the organization’s name, plus an address (specific or general).
-
Select a suggestion from the dropdown and adjust the search radius if needed.
-
You can also use the Looking for an organization? section on your homepage.
-
Step 2: Browse Opportunities
-
Once on the organization’s profile, browse through available opportunities.
Click an opportunity that interests you.
-
Example 1: Apply directly to a specific opportunity.
-
Example 2: If the organization has a Get Involved button, you can skip the next step and submit a general inquiry form.
-
After submitting, wait for further instructions. You may receive a Vome notification if you’re assigned to an onboarding sequence, specific opportunities, and/or shifts.
-
Step 3: Submit the Application Form
-
Complete and submit the application form.
-
Be sure to include all required information requested by the organization.
