Apply Today


1. Completion of our online submission form which includes:

  • Name, title, and company/organization.
  • Birthplace & city where you currently work & reside.
  • Social media URLs (links).
  • URLs to any applicable video(s) you would like posted.
  • Your biography written in the 3rd person – 500 words maximum. (Bios may be edited for consistency and length.)

NOTE: Your inclusion on Who’s Who in Black Canada.com is completely based on the strength of your bio, so this is no time to be shy. Make sure to include: what you’ve done, what makes you different, your career/community highlights, and any accolades & awards you’ve received for your dedication and hard work.

2. Answers to the following questions to help give our readers a better sense of who you are as a person, rather than just what it is you do:

  • Favourite book and why?
  • Favourite quote?
  • Given the chance, what would you love to do that you haven’t done yet?
  • Who or what inspires you?
  • Why do you do what you do?

3. A high resolution photo of yourself. Send to:

team@whoswhoinblackcanada.com

All photos must be large & high resolution (minimum 500MBs or 1000 x 1000 pixels). Files can be sent in .jpg, .tiff, .png, .psd or .eps format. Pictures taken by a professional photographer work best. If you do not have a professional headshot, please make sure there is nothing distracting in the background of the photograph. Photos can be sent in colour or black & white. Ideally, a headshot should include your head and shoulders. If you wear glasses, make sure there is no glare.
