Welcome to ProsperONE, the 2026-2027 Prosper Foundation
Unified Executive Team Application.

  

To better facilitate our applicants throughout the process, Prosper Foundation has streamlined the hiring process for all British Columbia-based conferences in our portfolio — Prosper, STRIVE, Ascend, Elevate, and the Prosper Ivey Invitational Competition — into one application.

 

Important Information:

• Your ProsperONE application will automatically be considered for all of Prosper Foundation's conferences in British Columbia.
• All conferences will have a unified interview process as well, eliminating the need for you to attend multiple interviews.
• You will have the opportunity to rank your conference preferences, but we cannot guarantee your final position placement.
• Although the use of ChatGPT or any other artificial intelligence software to answer application questions is not prohibited, answers that are predominantly generated by AI will be penalized.
• If you have never attended a Prosper Foundation event before, we recommend attending at least one (1) Prosper Foundation event before applying for a position on the executive team. Having exposure to all different Prosper Foundation conference formats will be considered in the final decision process.
• The application deadline for ProsperONE is June 13, 2026, at 11:59 PM PT.
• The Prosper Ivey Invitational Competition will be organized collectively across a selected group of executives, and there will be no dedicated executive team for the PIIC.
