# Applying to Jobs

Folio has exciting job opportunities that might not be available anywhere else! In order to apply to them, you'll need to make sure your profile is complete, and it's best practice to include a profile photo, a project, and complete skills assessments.

When you're ready to apply, head to the Discover page to see available opportunities. You can search for areas of interest or a specific company name. After you hit the Apply button, the employer will be notified and will review your application on their own time.

### Checking Application Status

To check your application status, from the left sidebar click on Jobs > Applications. You’ll be able to see the status of each job application, access the company details, and review the job description, goals, and skills required.

When you apply to a job, there are three main stages:

**Applied:** Your application has been successfully submitted and is in review by the company / hiring manager.

**Interviewing:** You've been invited to interview with the company.

**Hired:** You've been hired by the company for the role and a contract has been created for you to review deliverables, onboarding materials, and log your tasks.

**Rejected:** Unfortunately, the company did not think you were a good fit for the role.

### What happens after I apply?

Keep an eye out for an email with status updates! Make sure emails from <projects@folio.works> aren't being blocked by spam filters. If you think they might be, we recommend logging in at least twice a week to check your status.

These jobs move quickly, and you should, too! If you're serious about your application, you should respond to emails from Folio or from the employer as quickly as possible.
