General Tips
New applications are submitted every day to the DSGHQ, but some are overlooked due to bad organization, appearance, or grammar. Here are some tips to follow closely when applying for a rank.
Be sure your format is professional and easy to navigate. Sometimes too many decorative inclusions or too much colored text can give off a childish vibe and make administrators assume you aren't mature enough to properly moderate or represent the community.
Long applications are usually good when composed of the right information, but keep in mind that (much like an essay) the beginning and end of your application are the memorable pieces. Keep this in mind when organizing your application so you can make a big impact on readers with these two parts.
Sometimes summarizing things is better than explaining in detail. Let's be honest, most people don't take the time to read through a 4,000 word application, regardless of how great it is. Unless you're extraordinarily skilled in terms of keeping your readers interested, I recommend cutting it to the chase.
No matter how persistent you are, don't mail your application to a staff member or beg them to read it. This decreases your chances of being hired by at least 20%.
Information
If you can't think of the right information to include in your application, here are some things to definitely include, or definitely avoid.
Definitely include your timezone, age, experience, and special qualifications. These are the core components of an application.
Avoid explaining that you have good grammar. If your grammar is good, staff members will notice this while reading your application. Including your opinion on your own grammar just seems like a filler to make your application appear to have more information.
As great as it is to already know the moderation commands, they aren't exactly something you need to include in your application. Remember that an application is telling administrators about you, not the rank you want.
It's not required, but it's always nice to learn a bit about someone who's interested in a DSGHQ rank. Try including some of your favorite hobbies. It helps if you show leadership, patience, and/or responsibility through your favorite activities, though you should never fill your application with hobbies, because it's still an application, not a biography.
Application Format
If you still need help creating an application, here's a form you can fill out in a separate discussion that will give us all the necessary information about you. Just copy and paste to fill it out. Try answering in complete sentences (or even paragraphs) to increase your chances.
