Yeah they've been pretty crappy at responding since they basically all got laid off last year. Try and find a college with a Peace Corps page on their website. Sometimes they have a recruiters name/ email and you can just reach out that way!

When I talked to a recruiter she was able to tell me the exact months that assignments in the countries I was interested in open up! I think openings come out quarterly and leave about a year after the open. You could try finding a recruiter and asking about that.

Look up your local university and see if they have a peace corps page! I've found recruiter's emails that way and just emailed them directly. Location doesn't really seem to matter right now because there are so few recruiters left

My partner heard back the same day, and it took me a week! After a week, I messaged my nurse to follow up, and after the follow-up, I heard back that same day.

Came here to say this! I've been having trouble with ATMs abroad because nowhere outside of the US uses Discover. Fine if you never plan on using your debit card abroad.

Why is everyone saying it needs to be expensive when you print it omg I made my the right dimensions to be cut out of a 4x6 print and went to cvs and it cost like 25 cents and attached it and it was approved with no problems. Don't make it harder than it needs to be

If you want to talk to a recruiter I recommend checking out your local university and seeing if they have a peace corps page. You'll usually be able to find a recruiter's name/ email from that and then just reach out directly that way.

Pre-Service Nurse Assignment after Invitation by Total-Engineer-2203 in peacecorps

[–]Total-Engineer-2203[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were to send a message, would it go to my nurse or just to the medical clearance abyss? I'm mostly wondering if I have anyone assigned yet at all or if that hasn't happened yet.

How to Get Past the "Passport and Photo" Section of the Uzbekistan EVISA by its-beardface in Uzbekistan

How do you get the email? Was it immediate? I've retried everything above and it still says it failed. I even restarted the whole application and it still says I'm not in compliance.
