How to get in at AFL
Applying early is a distinct advantage at AFL, as recruiters often review candidates before the applicant pool grows too large. Intern Insider sends an instant alert the moment a role matching your target is published, helping you get your materials in among the first. This timing often separates the candidates who get a screen from those who disappear into the queue. You can also reach out to recruiters directly to ask about a role or a potential referral, which often improves your response rate. Intern Insider surfaces the specific recruiters behind company roles so you can make that connection. Taking this step shows you have done your homework and are genuinely interested in the work AFL does.
