A Different Drummer


Anybody want to come to Egypt?

I guess if you are a regular reader of my blog, you would know my opinion that Egypt is one of the most amazing countries in the world to spend some time in. An intense cultural experience, with lots of really amazing places to travel to, wonderful food, cheapness galore, brilliant people and an opportunity to learn more than you would ever imagine.

Well, right now here in Egypt we have a whole bucketload of management and technical traineeships available - and we're struggling to match them! We're having all the usual problems, slow response times, IS breakdowns, disinterested people etc. Anyhow, I've decided to use the nomadlife target audience - clued in, well connected, interesting AIESEC'ers to see if we can find some people wanting to come here.

We have lots of really cool jobs in marketing, IT and web development, customer service and market research. They all pay solid salaries which will let you have a good lifestyle in Egypt. They all offer cool working experience. And most importantly, they all give you a chance to come to what I believe is one of the worlds "must-see" countries. And if you speak Dutch, Portugese, Italian or Greek, we even have one company here who will cover 50% of your travel costs, give you free Arabic classes at work and drive you to and from work for free.

Don't just take my word for it - look at the blogs of any number of current or former trainees or visitors to Egypt. They all, uniformly, had or are having an absolute blast. It is impossible not to.

So, if you would like to have an unforgettable Egyptian experience, or think you have friends, contact, LC members etc who would like one, get in touch with me, tom.gara@aiesec.net, or drop a note in comments. I can't talk up these opportunities enough, this is just a country you really have to experience at one point in your life. Spread the word!
