Frequently Asked Questions

How will my working day look like?

It all depends on where you will be a volunteer. Places in schools are much more rigid than our office. All the volunteers work the max of 38 hrs per week.

Should I apply if my education is different than the project`s subject?

It’s not only that you can – you should! It could be a great chance to gain new knowledge and develop skills. You will have a chance to try something new and we will help with that. You can use your personal skills and talents anywhere — it is all about the happy attitude and creative approach.

How the trip to Romania should be arranged? How much does it costs?

Do not fear! There are few ways of how it can be done. First of all, you already know that the city of your project is Craiova, Romania. One of the point of volunteering is that you have the opportunity to manage more aspects of your life. You can start arranging the trip by yourself. If you face difficulties, we are here for you! You can send us a message and we will do our best to find the best travel option.

Also, do not forget about your Sending Organization. Who knows,maybe they know a cheap transport company that goes directly from your home city? The cost depends on the available possibilities and your own choice. The maximum amount of money for the travel it is specified in the Activity Agreement that you will sign before being an ESC volunteer.

Will I have any holiday during my ESC volunteering?

Sure – you cannot work all the time. Being on ESC also means a chance of visiting many places or travelling around. Each month there are 2 days for you to use as days off. You can use them when you want, but you have to have our approval – you need to know that if you do not use them, they will not be cumulated.

For a longer break you can use the holiday time that you receive for the whole project.Planning your days off or holiday goes hand in hand with the working schedule of the activities.

What will I get from the ESC volunteering?

Besides the chance of meeting new people, living in a new place, doing some new things inyour life – everything you need to become a team player and be more self-confident.

ESC is not only about the voluntary tasks, it is alsoabout spending some time abroad to get to know yourself better.

What should I take with me if I am selected for the project?

First of all, take all kinds of positive emotions! Your new journey will start soon! There are few material things that you will need, though. Bring: all the personal hygiene essentials, towels, bedsheets (there are in the accommodation, but maybe you want your own), your personal documents (ID, passport), clothes and shoes that will fit every season that you will be in Romania, comfortable clothes for outdoor activities. Also we recommend you to bring your phone, camera & laptop (if you have) as they might be helpful in your activities.
