- question: What should I include in my application email?
answer: Don't worry too much about the content of the email. We're only looking at what's in your attached resumé. Please use the subject line "2024 Emerging Technology Fellowship Application" in your email and email your application to [email protected].

- question: How should I format my resumé?
answer: Give us an honest read on what makes you a great candidate! Don't undersell yourself and try to use descriptive language about each of your listed roles (i.e. What did you do? What skills/programming languages did you use there? Did you manage a team? etc.). And, be sure to demonstrate **leadership in technology projects**, especially projects that have leveraged any of the topics listed in the "How will my resumé be evaluated?" question below in the FAQs. While we do not require a specific format, your resumé will be reviewed by federal HR specialists. So if you'd like to get a sense of how typical federal resumés are formatted, we encourage you to visit [USAJobs](https://www.usajobs.gov/help/faq/application/documents/resume/what-to-include/) to take a look.

Specialized Experience: For the GS-15, you must have one year of experience at a level of difficulty and responsibility equivalent to the GS-14 in the Federal Service. Qualified candidates demonstrate experience exercising a high degree of creativity and seasoned judgment and apply agile, lean, open-source, and human-centered design principles to develop new concepts, products, and services in response to challenges faced by the Census Bureau and other Federal agency partners; writing code in programming languages such as Python, SQL, R, Java, JavaScript, Go, Scala, C, C++, Julia, or MatLab; drafting policy for emerging technologies and processes such as data science, privacy-enchancing technologies, and AI/machine learning; authoring publications and presenting at conferences; and managing technical projects as a project manager, technical lead, product manager, or team lead.
- question: What are your recruitment cycles?
answer: We typically accept applications for the Fellowship once a year in Fall.
answer: Recruitment for the fellowship depends on funding and current project needs.

content="Being an Emerging Technology Fellow with xD at the Census Bureau has been such an honor. I get to work with the best and brightest in America. I'm challenged to think outside of the box and discover creative solutions to drive improvement. The best part about being an xD Fellow would be the camaraderie amongst the cohort of fellows. Each fellow has helped broaden my perspective on how to solve such complex issues while being a safe space to ask questions when I don't know what to do next."
