When do applications open?

What is the application process?
If your initial application is successful, we will invite you to complete a video interview (self-recorded).
The video interview is administered via Hireflix. This is an opportunity for our internal team to get to know you. It is completed alone in front of a webcam and recorded for review. Please treat this like a classic interview, even though the format is unusual. You will get 3 attempts to record each question video response, and there will be a 1-minute time limit per question.
If you have technical issues whilst completing your Hireflix interview, please contact ambassadors@codefirstgirls.com.
What can you expect: You might be asked to elaborate more on why you want to be a CFG Ambassador and any direct/transferable experiences you have that you would like to bring to the role. This is also your chance to ask questions to learn more about CFG / the Ambassador programme!
If you are succesful following your video interview, we will then offer you a formal invite to become a 2027 ambassador!
Can I apply if I am outside the UK or Ireland?
Absolutely! We’re excited to accept applications from all over the world.
The scope will be slightly lighter than our UK scheme, but you’ll still have plenty of meaningful ways to get involved and make an impact, including:
- Creating or sharing social posts that champion Code First Girls
- Contributing content for CFG campaigns
- Writing blog posts or recording videos for our platforms
- Taking part in regional or country-based case studies
- Referring new candidates to CFG programmes
- Introducing new companies to our opportunities
- Supporting your local community with advice, encouragement and connections
- Hosting or helping to deliver a regional community event or workshop
How can I prepare for Ambassador interviews?
Here are some general tips for interview prep!
Our previous CFG Ambassadors also provided some tips below.
- Let your personality and vibrancy shine: don’t be afraid to stand out with what makes you unique. Some of the most memorable answers will be more impactful than the polished ones.
- About ChatGPT: It is obvious to us when AI models like ChatGPT have been used. Echoing our previous tip, we much rather have a natural conversation with you!
- Virtual best: whether in person or online, make sure you are engaging directly with the webcam/interviewer, and avoid reading answers from a sheet (having some notes with prompts to the side can help – but keep it subtle). Ensure your background and interview space is distraction-free and your video and audio are working well.
- Mix it up: We would love to hear different examples from the ones you gave on your application form so that we can form a better understanding of your strengths and skills.
- Have questions prepped and practised: research what questions you may be asked and have some answers prepped! This includes things like ‘strengths and weaknesses, ‘what would your friends say about you’, and ‘top three qualities’ as some of the most common questions asked.
- Keep it concise: for your initial and face-to-face video interview, it is important to keep your answers impactful yet concise.
- Know about the Ambassador role and CFG: as an Ambassador, you will have to speak about CFG, so get to know us via our website, impact reports, blogs, etc. It’s also good to get familiar with the expected tasks of being a CFG Ambassador, and showing passion/interest in these.
Lastly, the STAR method will always help: STAR is “Situation, Task, Action and Result” – this will help you to keep your answers succinct and on point, with situational/behaviour questions you may be asked. For more information on this technique please click here.
Here is some advice from our previous Ambassadors:
“Be your authentic self and have a reason why you would like to be an Ambassador 💖”
“Be confident in what you have to offer. You don’t have to have thousands of Insta/TikTok followers to make an impact! 💪🏼 “
“Put yourself into a mindset of ‘they need me because of XYZ’ – and then you can really start drilling into what you have to offer!”
“Let your passion shine through in why you would like to join and help! 🫶🏼”
Is this a paid role?
No, this role is primarily a freelance volunteer role.
However, there may be ad hoc paid opportunities available.
A paid opportunity would be a CFG-hosted event where you would be on a panel or have a speaking opportunity. For these opportunities, we pay £30 per hour.
What is the commitment?
We would expect you to commit to the Ambassador programme for 12 months, over this period, and excluding the paid opportunities, we anticipate that this would be a commitment of around ~40 hours for all roundtables, events, L&D training and activities outlined above (with complete flexibility around in-person attendance, prior commitments, work and so forth).
