This Job Will Pay You To Travel Europe And Make Friends: How To Apply, Canada Reviews

Might you be described as a ‘yapper’? Do you possess what the kids refer to as ‘rizz’? Well, if the answer is yes, listen up – a rather dreamy job prospect has just opened up, and the main requirement is essentially being a bit of an extrovert. 

How does it work, you ask? Well, RiseGuide is a self-improvement app, and it is looking for someone to become their ‘Global Charisma Scout’ – a role which encompasses spending eight weeks travelling around Europe having chats with strangers. 

Yes, you did in fact read that right. The job listing outlines tasks which include starting conversations with strangers in cafes, bars, queues and other public spaces, documenting these interactions based on the ‘ease of connection’, all to aid in the production of a ranking of the continent’s most talkative cities.

How to apply

The requirements outlined are an outgoing personality and strong communication skills, as well as adaptability. You’ll also need to be able to travel easily around the EU and be okay living out of a suitcase for two months, and fluency in either Spanish, French, German or Italian is not essential, but preferable. 

But hey, with Rome, Barcelona, Lisbon, Paris, Dublin, Athens, Amsterdam and Berlin on the itinerary, as well as a monthly pay check of around €2,630 and all your flights, hotels and experiences covered, this opportunity is a no-brainer. 

To apply, you’ll need to send a 3-4 minute video explaining why you’d make a top-tier Global Charisma Scout and which city you’d be most excited to visit, and to share links to (ideally) at least two of your different social media profiles. 

There’s no closing date disclosed on the application form, so we suggest you get on it as soon as possible. Best of luck!
