Expert Application Advice

When applying to NGO, show how your daily tasks already meet les compétences demandées dans l'annonce. Even as a junior, small logistics wins—like reducing wait times or tracking accuracy—prove your readiness. Keep it concrete and humble.

International NGO — NGO recruiters read your cover letter to assess your understanding of the humanitarian mission, not just technical skills. Show you know the country field context and the specific challenges of this sector.

Field and ERP — Specify your experience with local customs procedures and the ERPs you genuinely master. Recruiters often test stock-out management in emergencies — prepare a concrete example.

  • Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
