Application Process

All mentioned forms are available for download further down this page. Once filled out, all forms must be submitted to us in PDF format.

  • The Candidate form must be completed in as much details as possible.
  • The candidate must supply a CV / resume as well.
  • The candidate must fill in the Consent form for the processing of their personal data, and submit it together with the other documents.
  • As part of the application process, each application must obtain support from 3 current ISI Elected Members as sponsors. Each sponsor must use the Sponsors supporting comments form, one per sponsor.
  • If you do not have all 3 Sponsor supporting comments forms available when you submit your application, you can submit them at a later date.

File type and naming conventions

PDF Conversion

You are responsible for converting your application documents from whichever format – such as .doc, .docx or .jpg – into PDF files.

File naming

In order to ensure quick and efficient processing of your application, you are required to name all documents according to these conventions:

  • lastname(s)_documenttype.pdf   (all lowercase)

Replace any spaces in the lastnames with dashes (-).

Examples:

The candidate is named “John Smith” and one of the sponsors is named “James Hyde Jones”. So the files need to be named:

  • smith_candidateform.pdf
  • smith_cv.pdf
  • smith_consentform.pdf
  • smith_hyde-jones_supportingcomments.pdf
