The assessment process

The assessment day includes a variety of group activities and an individual interview. These elements enable us to look for the qualities you’ll need to meet the challenge of living and working overseas:

• self-assurance

• flexibility and adaptability

• flair for solving problems

• ability to work in a team

• sensitivity to the needs of others

• desire to learn and help others learn

• positive and realistic commitment to volunteering.

We’ll ask you to give examples of times and situations where you’ve used these qualities. Over 70% of candidates are successful.
