ARE YOU READY FOR YL?
This is about high quality online volunteer team work. Before you contact us, make sure to read with full attention THIS FILE: NEW-APPLICANTS-WRITERS-AND-TRANSLATORS-ARE-U-READY?
.
We hope you say, Sure! Let’s rock. So, then, friend ..
THIS IS HOW TO CONTACT US…
You can meet us online at www.youth-leader.org through our menu’s About/Team/…, so let’s get even.
.
1) Say Hi to us. Imagine you see us hanging out in a groovy lounge space and walk up to us in person;
= send us an informal! presentation letter… introducing yourself to us, incl. a friendly photo + telling about motivation, background, perspectives for the near future, a link to your facebook profile, blog … (if available). We want to enjoy our work, so don’t be stiff and boring. And do not leave anything out!
If that’s all included, and we know who we are talking to, we can proceed to the next step…
.
2) A writing task / translation task (depending on the team you are applying to), with 3 days delivery time.
If the result fits the YL style, your article will go straight up in YL along with your name and picture! So we have our first reason to party!
Are you nervous?
Get to know YL by reading YL’s About’s „Youth Leadership“, „Mega Solutions“ and „Positive News Media Culture“. It will tune you to the spirit we represent and wish to convey. Helpful ‚Article Writing / Translation Guidelines’ will be delivered with the article task. And yes – you can ask us questions, too.
If all went wrong or there are tons of things to optimise, we can go through a second task.
.
3) Once this has been passed, everyone is happy and you decide that’s this is exactly what you want to keep doing for a while, we’ll
(a) put together the formalities (team profile, picture etc.) and in a next step
(b) you’ll get your technical set up (youthleader mail, dropbox, skype, wordpress infos) – that’s all good, free, world standard stuff used for professional online teamwork – along with becoming visible part of YL on the respective team page(s)
.
4) We can issue certificates and so on after some completed tasks. We honour our changemaker family’s spirit, your contribution and wish to do everything we can to give air under (y)our wings, tune your involvement with YL with your personal and professional development. There are many extraordinary activities and opportunities within the YL network, and you can join more than one – so stay alert, think, and let us know of your ideas and interests.
.
Sounds and feels good?
Well ~ come on over and let us meet that wonderful person that’s YOU!
