<p> Fellowships add immense value to your resume in the following ways: </p>

<li> Projects with the government expose you to a wide range of stakeholders, which helps you see problems and challenges from many different perspectives. The ability to understand diverse perspectives will differentiate you from your peers. </li>
<li> You lead the project you work on, and will be able to further develop your leadership skills. </li>
<li> You build systems and solutions which conform to global standards and best practices, which makes you competitive in the industry. </li>
<li> You’re <a href="/mentors" style="text-decoration: underline;color: blue;"> mentored by industry giants </a> and can gain valuable insights on how to further accelerate and shape your career. </li>
<li> You become a great all-rounder: whether it is offering your professional recommendation on technology, presenting to the heads of organizations, or recruiting, you gain valuable all-round experience. </li>
<li> You build your network through interactions with volunteers and experts in the course of project work, or at LSF events. </li>

<p> As a nonprofit, we’re committed to building technology for the public good, not profits. That means we can help governments of all sizes tackle their most pressing problems at a fraction of the cost of other vendors. At the end of projects, we don’t walk away. We build capacity in government technical teams so they can continue to evolve systems and succeed long after we’re gone. </p>
