Talk about a chance of a lifetime. We have been blown out of the water by recruitment agency Adecco with their latest job opportunity; 80 different jobs experiences, in 80 different locations all over the world throughout the Summer.
With the ‘lost generation’ struggling to find employment; Adecco wants to share their vision, that there are endless possibilities with a dream job out there for everyone. This opportunity will give those eight lucky winners a chance of a lifetime to experience all types of disciplines; from a welder in New Orleans to a lion caretaker in South Africa.
There are already thousands of youngsters applying for this opportunity and the application process is as much as a journey as the opportunity. Starting off in Paris; you need to fill in your Passport to start your journey. The second stage includes an English test in the back of a cab in Singapore, and dependent on your results, you earn 'miles' before progressing to the next destination. Make sure you try your best and put in the effort as those miles act as your points and the more you earn the better chances you have of beating the competition. The Great Barrier Reef is next with the test of memory; followed by a communications test in Brazil, where putting your social skills on the line with the most retweets earning you top marks. The next is an orienteering task in New York City with the aid of Google maps, followed by your dream job right here in the UK.
Adecco have selected these core tasks as they need to ensure the calibre of entrants will meet both the challenging job demands and stamina levels for the journey. These tasks complete stage one of the application process and those with the highest 'miles' will be announced on May 21st before going to the second stage of selling yourself in a video entry expressing your skills, creativity and passion. The winners of this round will be announced on June 25th with the eight lucky winners finally jumping on board and trying out these various experiences between July 1st and August 31st.
This is a great competition to be part of, especially if you too feel like you are part of a job market where opportunities are limited and you are struggling to find the right career for you; feel part of the 'loved generation' and put yourself forward. All of the team here at apt would love to try our luck and secure this experience of a lifetime; but if we all succeeded, the office would be very quiet. We will keep watch for those tweets and see if we can help you earn some extra miles to take you one step further on this journey.
