The minimum age requirement to participate in Project Rockstar is 18. However, there is no maximum age and applicants will not be disadvantaged by virtue of their age.
People from all countries are welcome to apply but note the below details on accommodation and cost of travel.
In last year’s Project Rockstar, we had several people from overseas and one rockstar in his forties. We encourage people from all walks of life and places around the world to apply.
Criteria for Selection
We are looking for men and women who have and can illustrate amazing drive and passion to accomplish their hopes and dreams. We want participants that are willing to give 110% and have demonstrable evidence of this (in other areas of life) in their application.
To ensure you achieve the absolute best results and make the program worthwhile for participating instructors, our coaches want to work with people with amazing drive and passion. Dating success is NOT a prerequisite. Passion, desire, commitment and enthusiasm are.
As a bonus, the ability and desire to make the program successful and widespread is looked upon favorably. Actionable steps of what you could do during the program to make it more interesting and accessible to readers and followers (e.g. suggestions such as video blog, in-field footage etc) will also be looked upon favorably.
What To Do If You Are Interested
If you are interested in becoming one of the best in dating science and lifestyle on the planet, if you are willing to take your life to levels deliriously above where you are right now and only if you are willing to work with absolute passion to accomplish that, then you need to fill in the application forum below.
Before you do that, it is recommended that you spend time composing your answers in a word document first. That way, you can have a think about how you want to present yourself to us, you have your application saved in case your browser crashes, and you can send your application to your friends and people you trust to see how strong they think it is before you submit it.
When you are ready to submit it (and have proofed it all for spelling and grammatical errors – believe me, there is nothing in a swathe of applications that turns you off more than spelling errors every second word), copy and paste your answers into the form below and hit submit.
Do not be deterred by the small input boxes – you will need well thought out and comprehensive responses to differentiate yourself from the hundreds of applications. Consequently, try to make your application as descriptive as possible to satisfy the criteria.
For the Photo URL box, please upload a photo of yourself to a site such as www.photobucket.com and paste the link in this box.
Please keep your total application to 1000 words or less. If you have any problems with submission, email Jeremy Soul at soul@lovesystems.com.
Please keep in mind that what we want from the answers you give is to have a holistic understanding of the person you are. Questions such as educational background, work history etc are there for us simply to fill in the overall understanding of you are a person.
Jeremy Soul and the Rockstar selection panel will personally review each application that is submitted on a rolling basis. We will contact you by email if you are selected for interview to arrange a suitable date and time (the interview will most likely take place over the phone, so it doesn’t matter where in the world you are).
The earlier you apply, you better you can prepare for the six-week summer program and make appropriate arrangements if indeed, you are selected. So it is in your interests to apply sooner rather than later.
Applications will be reviewed up until May 13 2010. If you submit an application after this date and believe you are an exceptional candidate for rockstar, you may contact soul@lovesystems.com directly with your application. Chances are we will have filled all the places by then, but it’s worth a try in the rare case that we haven’t.
The Selection Process
Applications. Applications will be accepted from February 10 2010 until May 13 2010. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. The earlier you get your application in and the stronger you make it, the more likely we are to select you for interview.
Interviews. You will be contacted within this timeframe if you are selected for interview to speak with one or more of the Rockstar selection panel over the phone.
Test & Exercise. If you do well at interview stage, it is likely you will be a given an exercise to complete, which will assess your various capabilities as a potential Rockstar.
Contact. Due to the sheer volume of applications we get every year, we regret that we cannot confirm receipt of your application or inform you if you were unsuccessful in your application. If for some reason you believe there are extenuating circumstances surrounding your application, you can make these clear in your application form. If you are unsure if your application was successfully submitted via the web form, you can contact me with a short email to soul@lovesystems.com so I can check and confirm receipt of your application.
Program Commencement. Project Rockstar will begin on 13 June 2010 (in London) and end on 25 July 2010 (in Stockholm).
FAQs for Applicants
Q: How much is this going to cost me? How much should I budget for if I’m applying?
A: Although none of the coaches and instructors are charging for their time, you will most likely have to take time off work to participate in the six-week project (see below). That means you have to be able to support yourself for the duration of that time.
The amount you need to budget for this will vary widely depending on where you are coming from, how comfortable you want to be during the project, and whether you are able to still do some work (or manage your work remotely) during the project.
Previous Rockstars have typically budgeted anything from two to fifteen thousand dollars to allow for their costs. At the lower end, you can find cheap, shared accommodation for three weeks in London and three weeks in Stockholm, buy grocery food on most days and book cheap flights well in advance. If you have more income or money saved up, you might want to invest in being more comfortable.
Rockstar instructors, coaches and other participants will give you guidance on securing accommodation and everything else you need to prepare for the project if you are successfully selected.
Ultimately, where there is a will, there is a way. If you are strong-minded and want to participate, you could always think of ways to raise the money so you can. Project Rockstar is not just a six-week holiday, but an investment for the rest of your life – and don’t people normally spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on short-lived holidays, anyway?
Q: I’m old, ugly, short, fat and bald. Is it worth me applying?
A: If that’s all you think you are, probably not. If you know you are capable of more than life is currently offering you, particularly in the romance and sex department, and you can demonstrate achievement in other areas of your life in your application form, then yes, it’s completely worth applying.
Q: Is this all just about having sex with as many women as possible?
A: The lifestyle change we teach focuses on dating (meaning in this case, meeting and attracting the opposite sex) in the first instance. But mastery over your dating life is just the beginning.
With the tools we teach you, we hope to give you the social tools to master all relationships in your life, including those with your friends, family, career and business. In short, it’s a psychological and social overhaul of your life.
In addition to social coaching, there will also be specific techniques taught for entrepreneurship, productivity, and physical well-being.
If you are solely interested in sleeping with a lot of women, this is not for you…
Q: Do I have to give up work for six weeks to participate?
Project Rockstar is a very intense program. To get the most out of it, it is recommended that you do not work or otherwise minimize working commitments for the duration of the project.
For high caliber applicants who make a strong case to participate in their application but absolutely cannot take the time off work, exceptions may be made. Be sure to clearly state how you think you will be able to manage your energy and commitment levels if you believe you will have to continue to work during the project.
If you want to be involved with Project Rockstar but cannot commit for six weeks, look at other ways you can get involved.
Q: How much competition is there going to be for places on Project Rockstar?
A: A lot. Last year we had over 300 applications. Make sure that you spend time thinking about how to make your application as strong as possible.
Many of the successful applicants from last year spent weeks composing their application and sending it to people they trusted to them to read and proof it for them.
If it’s clear that you haven’t put a lot of thought into your application (and accordingly, there are a lot of spelling or grammatical errors), then don’t expect to hear back from us. We are looking for high caliber individuals. Write your application to show us that you are one.
Q: Will I be photographed and public facing if I am chosen to participate?
A: Yes. Project Rockstar will be heavily publicized, so your face and name might appear in mainstream online, press, radio and TV media.
Media attention ultimately benefits you. It might feel strange and uncomfortable at first, but getting involved in media can open up avenues to you that are important. Besides that, learning how to present yourself publicly is an important part of becoming a Social Master.
Q: How do I add a photo of myself into the application form?
A: For the Photo URL box, please upload a photo of yourself to a site such as www.photobucket.com and paste the link in this box.
