Once a company has been vetted by Scope of Work and provides job descriptions, White’s team provides them with a candidate list, complete with their portfolios and resumes. Scope of Work makes the official introduction and supports the company and candidate throughout the process. The companies get a discounted fee if fellows are hired after the fellowship concludes, because “the goal of the fellowship program is to matriculate fellows into full-time positions,” said White.
“The opportunity forced me to figure out how my skills and thought process could be valuable in the position in a way that no one else could offer,” said Gipson who learned from Scope of Work about how to turn art into a business — skills that weren’t taught in school. “Having a community of people was really reassuring, and it was nice to know that other people were feeling similar to how I was at times … I also learned that the path to success as a creative isn’t always in a straight line.
