What will you be doing?

All YourBestLife Scholarships are built under the three pillars of life.

You will travel the world while developing multiple competencies based on your own growth as well as the Program’s three main pillars:

Belonging | Social Impact | Life Career

Here are some examples of activities that you will be doing:

Subject to change. The 2nd edition will be planned as the 1st one, but there can be changes.

Who are we looking for?

Seven people (18 or older) from all over the world who dream of traveling the world, and to see how their journey can transform them.

The seven of you will live new adventures, seeing with your own eyes the beautiful places that are plastered all over the internet. Of course, you’ll create endless memories of your journey, but in addition, each one of you will have a unique goal to develop a specific part of your life. We’ll prepare activities and challenges especially designed to making sure you reach your goal.

For this second edition of the 6-month Scholarship, we will be looking for people who have different drives to travel and to apply to the Scholarship.

What drives you to travel?
Which one do you relate the most with?

Selecting the 7 participants

Until end of Oct 20

APPLICATIONS

Personality Test

The first test is focused on your personality, so there are no right or wrong answers—only you and your answers! Composed of multiple-choice statements, this test will provide a comprehensive and detailed assessment of your personality, and once completed, you will receive a report passing along what we’ve learned about you from your answers.
But what exactly do we mean by “personality”? Basically, your personality is the unique way you act, think, feel, and interact with the world. This test doesn’t measure your skills or interests, but your habits and tendencies that influence the way you work and interact with others.

Profile Match

Together with Randstad Services in Portugal, we will review all the personality tests, cross-check our criteria with your answers, and choose the candidates who will pass to the second phase based on the seven profiles we are looking for.

Nov-Dec 20’

SELECTION PROCESS

in collaboration with
Randstad Services in Portugal

Persona technical
questionnaire

Based on the results of the first test, the next phase will be composed of questions to evaluate specific characteristics we are looking for in each different profile. Remember, we are looking for 7 people: Experience, Break, Never Travelled, Contribute, Grow, Connect.
There are 6 slots, since the slot Connect is for two people who will apply together.

Motivational open
questions

If you are among the most suitable candidates, you will be asked to answer up to three open-answer questions. You’ll also need to upload your CV and a portfolio of your relevant work.

Video interviews

After going through the open-answer questions, if you look like one of the unique individuals we’re looking for, we’ll set up a video interview to learn more about you. Background questions, problem-solving challenges, and role-playing scenarios will be part of these interviews. Bring your best casual self to the camera. After these interviews, we will select the final seven candidates who will participate in the YBL 6-month Scholarship.

  • How do you select the 7 candidates?

    Along with Randstad Services in Portugal we designed a rigorous selection process for the Life-Changing Program 19/20. We are looking for seven specific profiles, so the selection won't be random; we will be assessing your personality, skills, and profile throughout the four phases of this selection process:

    Until November 2020

    Phase 1 | Personality test

    November-December 2020

    Phase 2 | Persona technical questionnaire

    Phase 3 | Motivational open questions

    Phase 4 | Video interviews

    After these interviews, together with Randstad Services in Portugal we will select the final seven candidates who will participate in the Life-Changing Program. The candidates' announcement will happen at the end of December 2020.

    During the entire journey, you must be the most authentic version of yourself ;)

  • What will I be doing during the trip?

    You will be travelling for six months around the world, exploring different cultures, developing meaningful and genuine relationships with the locals and contributing to the host communities through volunteer work. There will be some activities that will be done in a group, though there will always be time for you to explore by yourself or enjoy some alone time.

    The countries for this first Life-Changing Program are: Costa Rica, Peru, South Africa, Reunion Island, India, Bhutan, Myanmar, Indonesia, Ireland and Portugal.

    The Program will run from February-July 2021. The trip starts on February 2021, and the date will be chosen according to the preferences of the 7 Humanizers, in order to be suitable to all them! Our priority is that you all feel comfortable with leaving for this adventure. The end date will be exactly 6 months after the beginning of the trip.
