Good Practice: Reference for volunteers

Would you know how to write a professional reference letter for an employee? Probably only very few people can wholeheartedly answer such a question positively… Which special features you should additionally pay attention to when writing a reference for one of your volunteers and, above all, how to attract the attention of a potential future employer with a reference, is another matter altogether.

Fortunately, you don’t have to be an HR professional to do this – although it would certainly help… A joint project of eight European NGOs has taken up this challenge and summarised the most important questions (and answers).

You want to know more about the Reference for Volunteers project? Nothing could be easier. Information in English, German, Maltese, Romanian and Slovenian is available on the project website.
