This checklist: https://qualifyafrica.com/o/ictp-senior-associates-2027
Built only from what the listing states. Lines marked (our advice) are ours.
The application takes real work, by our reading.

1. CHECK YOURSELF AGAINST WHAT THEY ASK
[ ] main affiliation in a scientific institute in a developing country (all African countries are developing countries)
[ ] a PhD
[ ] aged between 46 and 65 at the time of application

2. WHAT TO GET READY
The listing does not say what it needs. When you open their page, write down everything it asks for before you start.

3. DATES
- Closes 31 January 2027, in 101 days.
- Aim to send it by 28 January 2027. Websites slow down near a deadline, and data runs out. (our advice)

A job never asks you to pay to apply. A listing that charges shows the fee above, and it is paid only to the organisation. If anyone asks for money any other way, stop, and tell us: hello@qualifyafrica.com
