Expert Application Advice
Je vois que votre profil correspond à 3 ans d'expérience, un atout clé pour Inconnu. Mettez en avant votre expérience terrain en WASH pour montrer votre compréhension des défis locaux. Adaptez votre CV avec des réalisations chiffrées sur l'accès à l'eau et l'hygiène. N'oubliez pas de souligner votre capacité à former des communautés. Bonne chance !
Positionnement — Votre lettre de motivation doit répondre à une seule question : pourquoi VOUS pour CE poste précis à CE moment ? Évitez les lettres génériques — une phrase sur ce que vous apportez spécifiquement vaut mieux que trois paragraphes généraux.
Portfolio terrain — Listez les points d'eau construits/réhabilités, les formations hygiène animées, les outils de monitoring utilisés (KOBO, ODK). Un résumé d'une page de votre dernier projet WASH joint à votre dossier fait systématiquement la différence.

- •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.
