I checked out the link ibnibrahim dropped. One thing I gathered from it is that people for the scholarships must be already employed. In a related field to what they want to study.
I for one I have the required years of experience but not in the required field.

Commonwealth shared scholarship doesn't require any form of work experience. Just good essays. Although work or volunteer experience might be an advantage when applying.
