First track day of the season

 

Overview:

FRUCD has transitioned to an application-based model which includes a written application but no interviews. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, with decisions provided one week after the applicant meets all requirements. 

Application Process:
  1. Apply to one or more subteams that align with your interests.
    • This application includes basic personal information, any previous relevant experience, and your preferred subteam(s).
    • Check out our DiscordInstagram, and recruitment email list to learn more about each subteam and its projects!
  2. Team leads will reach out via Google Calendar to invite you to the next subteam meeting.
    • New recruits must attend at least one subteam meeting and one general meeting for their application to be considered.
  3. Within one week of meeting all requirements, you’ll be sent an email with the lead’s decision.
    • Acceptance letter: This will include further onboarding instructions.
    • Rejection letter: This will include feedback and potential recommendations for other subteams.
    • Extension letter: If a team lead needs more time to make a decision, the applicant will be notified of an extended decision date.
After Acceptance:

Upon acceptance, you’ll be required to complete the following steps:

  • Pay $65 annual member dues. 
  • Collect your team water bottle and sticker!
  • Join the team’s Google Drive.
  • Join Microsoft Planner.
  • Join the subteam’s GitHub (if applicable).
Rejection and Reapplication:

If you are rejected from a subteam, don’t sweat it! We encourage applicants to apply to multiple subteams and reapply during the next recruitment cycle.

Returning Members:

Members are required to reapply each year regardless of team status. This ensures fairness and consistency for all students in the recruitment process.
