LOOKING FOR A JOB

SOLIDARITY WITH TEACHERS AND YOUNG PEOPLE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR A JOB

Dear participants of the RIDEF

A group of young teachers that are unemployed or that will be unemployed very soon because of the financial cuts in education, would like to ask you for help finding a job in your country. Now is our time to emigrate…

Obviously we would like to work in something connected with schooling, but also with education, NGOs, environment, gender equality, human rights, social services, volunteering, international cooperation, citizen participation, research, social and cultural animation… and all these areas which let us change the world. That’s our first purpose.

We want to develop a space in the FIMEM web page where everybody can put job offers or information about places where people can find these offers (Freinet schools, cooperative schools, volunteering offices, teaching assistant agencies, citizen associations, public job services, etc.) to help us with our search abroad. When it’s active we will give you the link so you could inform us about possible job offers or places of your countries where to write to. But until that moment, we would like to thank you for a short information about how to start to look for a job in your country, independently if it is easy or not. Please write to the following e-mail address ayla.vr@gmail.com and mariatorrespalau@gmail.com

·     Telephone numbers, emails, direction, web sites, etc. of official services, NGOs, volunteering offices, cooperation, orientation offices and job offices.

·     Which are the jobs and the profiles mostly needed.

·     If languages are necessary or not and what kind of certificates are needed.

·     If it is necessary to have a special certificate to work in some areas (social job, etc.) and where and how you can get it.

·     What type of curriculum vitae is the most usual in your country.

·     Which projects are being developed in these areas. Are they asking for a specialized profile?

·     Special job offer for foreign people (like teaching assistants, school practices or school exchanges, for example).

·     Official aids for unemployed people (if it is possible).

·     The name of a people who are willing to welcome and help foreign people who arrive to the country to look for a job (only to give them some information about accommodation, cheap way of travelling and so on).

There are many countries in the FIMEM and even though you give us only a short information, your help will open us lots of doors and encourage us in this difficult times we are living in. At this moment, many young people think that they haven’t got any future.

Thanks a lot.
