When you find the perfect opportunity, the trick now is to not miss that deadline (if there is one). If the open call is on Rivet, sign up to get automated email alerts. If not, set up a calendar reminder a week before it’s due, and another one the day before. Don’t forget that time zones matter!
“If you have to miss the deadline, or know you have a habit of missing the deadline, find out if it’s an online portal that will automatically close at the time, or if the staff culture is lenient about deadlines.
If you do send it in late, you don’t have to make up a fake excuse. Just apologize and say you were late. The excuse won’t make them more likely to accept it, and could look slimy.” — David Xu Borgonjon
