This year is my AU YVC year no doubt! I applied last year, I wasn't selected but was given a feedback from them of how my application was 90% okay except the little omission which made my application not to be selected, this is one area Nigerian recruiters need to upgrade to, giving recruitment feedback. It would help candidates a lot. Now with the feedback I got last year, my application this year is 100% on point by Gods grace. For those who applied last year, you'd agree that the application process is a little different, but easier and if you'd find it quite of a free low kind of thing when you import last years' application insights. AU YVC program is a very transparent process, and I commend them a lot for their professionalism over the years I have followed them. I can't wait for August 15th 2017 for that congratulatory success mail. Let the count down begin! 24 days to go!!! 2 Likes |

What was the omission cloud9usher: |
Re: Apply For African Union Youth Volunteer Corps (AU-YVC) 2018 by cloud9usher: 6:18pm On Jul 21, 2017 |
Rappen: A well written and detailed recommendation explaining why I'm being recommended for the AU-YUC. I got it from the company were I used to work, they do rural campaign awareness for their youth empowerment programs and training, its not an NGO though, it a company but they source for youths to train. There are plenty other ways you can get a recommendation letter, even from a church. I can go on and on. Also, its not just getting a recommendation letter, let the recommendation sell you off well to the Africa Union. Then also, make sure your cover letter is top notch, make sure you take this section very very seriously if you want to be shortlisted. AU-YVC is an experience to have I must say, I can remember those I met last year and 2 years ago who had the experience and its something to look forward to, and best of all is that this "job" opens doors to other bigger opportunities, most of them I know who came back are out of the country for bigger opportunities which AU-YVC platform made them take advantage of, places like Europe, America. All the best to you all. |

Oluwainnie: Last year's application, we were given sections by section to give details of how best we are suited for the job role, my "motivation section" was literally empty and that's what got me denied for selection, I got this info from the feedback they sent to me. 1 Like |

cloud9usher: Ah! Sir, I was among the first peeps that applied this year. Faster than my shadow I must say. I made lots of error from this feedback. I used my NYSC discharge certificate as the recommendation letter and my peace corps deployment letter as my second recommendation letter. Please is it advisable to reapply? Or should I just hand it over to God? My motivation letter by the grace of God is OK. God bless you. |

ApostleEbuka: I'm not an authority here but I don't think double applications go well with a recruitment process. A recommendation letter is just like a "praise singing" letter from a present or past employer, or an institution with which you have had dealings with related to volunteering or developmental work. The letter explains why you are best suited for the position you are applying for, I'm sorry to say but stuff like NYSC certificate or Peace Corps deployment letter are NOT recommendation letters are they don't serve such a purpose. The NYSC and Peace Corp documents can be shown to prove you have had some related volunteering work experience but they don't do much in selling you as the best candidate for the job. You mentioned God, nothing is impossible with him, although your document submissions are clearly not appropriate, God can still change things to your favour, dependent on your faith though. 1 Like |

ApostleEbuka:Yeah, you should hand it over. I wouldn't advise you re-apply. It's not a Nigerian system; we should expect it to be solid, and not as leaky as most Nigerian systems. I have a question, though.... Are the two recommendation letters you uploaded a part of the mistakes you've realised and are trying to correct? |

No matter what is written on your recommendation letter, the best recommendation for selection is the one you can give to yourself. All recommendations are subject to be positively exaggerated. You keep reading that you can get it from anywhere easily and you can as well influence it. I think the most important parts are your motivation letter and your CV. The two parts will definitely convey to an experienced recruiter what you have in bulk to offer the community you will be deployed. If you don't have anything to offer, if you don't understand problem you are likely to solve and if you don't convey the values you are bringing in, then do I care about the recommendation letter? Although I believe the recommendation letter will play a slightly role when competing between two or more applicants of the same weight. 1 Like |

How It Works - Aspiring volunteers who fulfill all requirements should fill out the online application form and upload their CV. - Organizations wishing to deploy youth volunteers are required to fill out the online request form . Alternatively, organizations can send their request to youth@africa-union.org - Screening: Volunteer Applications and Volunteer Requests would now be screened for completeness through a vigorous and transparent process. Candidates whose application was not convincing, would be eliminated and notified. Volunteers are permitted to reapply a second time. - Matching: Applications of nominated volunteer candidates are matched with available vacancies according to the criteria specified by the requesting organization. - Selection: The AU-YVC would send multiple CVs (4- of matched volunteers to requesting organization to make final selection. - Volunteer Training: Prior to their deployment volunteers would be trained for a period of 2 to 3 weeks by the AU-YVC unit to enhance volunteers professional, interpersonal and life skills. The training aims to prepare volunteers for their country of deployment and/or enhance their capacity. - Deployment: selected volunteers would now sign a tri-partite agreement with their host organization and the AUC which shall guide the terms of deployment. - Progress Assessment: volunteers are expected to provide regular reports on their activities and address challenges to the AU-YVC unit. 1 Like |
