Before beginning your MyJobCorps application, make sure you’re prepared by completing the following steps:

• Set up a valid email address (if you don't have one).
  You’ll need it to create your Portal account, submit your application, and receive important updates about your application status.

• Talk it over with a parent or guardian (if you’re under 18).
  It’s a big decision, and it helps to have support and guidance as you explore your options.

• Start gathering important documents.
  You don’t need them to submit an application, but having items like your birth certificate or Social Security card handy can make the next steps smoother.

• Learn about Job Corps:
