Working Traveller is about booking up work with hosts needing your skills at the time you will be visiting their country.
Travellers – learn to earn your way around the world
Working Traveller specialises in helping you gain work references in your chosen skills as you travel the world. If you are a seasoned pro or just starting out and you want to learn new skills – have a look at the Skills section and see how many travellers are listed for your skills. Sign up today – we are free now but shortly will be charging $10.00 a year to contact hosts. Start saving money post corona by getting work booked up and not staying in hostels by becoming a Working Traveller.
Build references through work placements
You have heard it many times. Employers want to hire people with experience. All those years getting your degree seem to suddenly count for nothing. How do you get the work experience if no one will give you a job? References from your Working Traveller hosts that you stay with fix this. They show how you use your skills, that you are punctual, that you have a good work ethic and that you can make decisions. And if you take a picture with your host doing the WT sign with your hands, it 100% proves you were there and the reference is real. To find a host that is right for you, check the work search section.
Be smarter than the pack – plan ahead
I hear you say ” I have no idea where I will be going next – so how can I book work 3 months in advance?” That’s fine, you can apply for last-minute cleaning and harvest work and often hosts will still need even skilled people at short notice. If getting references on your profile for your chosen skills is more important than getting that selfy at Machu Picchu – then it pays to be organised and have your availability literally mapped out on your profile. Hosts then search the WT database to see when the skills they need are coming to their country and book them up ( that means you) well in advance. Be organises, be a Working Traveller and make your trip a meaningful experience.
Hosts – looking for motivated volunteers and professionals?
Need experienced hospitality professionals for the up and coming high season? Help with your social media, solar power or surfing school? Thought of having a mural painted on that ugly wall? Working Traveller is not about finding you just people to help with the harvest or cleaning. Look at the 100s of skills travellers have added to their profiles that you can invite to come and work for you once you have set up your profile
. Working Traveller is not like other volunteer sites that offer only one package that fits all. 5 hours a day or work for 3 meals and a bed. A skilled carpenter working 10 hours a day will not work for the same as some who does a few hours of apple collecting a day. With every work placement you arrange on the Working Traveller site, you agree what ever you want with each traveller, so they all sit around your table for dinner in the evening, all with their own agreement made with you.
The skills you need – when you need them
Working Traveller matches the skills you need with the travellers who have a passion for them and are on their way to your country when you need them. It’s 100% free to post your work needs and always will be if you are a host. All we ask is you leave a reference for every traveller that comes to you from our site to give back for using the service for free. To find out more see the hosts section. Start posting your work needs today and within 24 hours they will be seen by potentiality 100,000+ travellers. It’s free to advertise and to build up your references. Sign up now and start to fill your skilled volunteer and paid needs today.
