How To Apply

Interested in becoming a volunteer with the Lyell McEwin Regional Volunteers?

It's as easy as 1-2-3!

Step One - Attend an Information Session

The first thing you'll need to do is attend one of our regular volunteer information sessions.

Our Information Sessions take around an hour and a half and are designed to give you the opportunity to learn more about our organisation and specifically the role of volunteers in our 30 different program areas.

Step Two - Complete a Preliminary Application Form

At the conclusion of the Information Session, we will give to you a 'Preliminary Application Form', which asks you to indicate the three volunteer jobs you would most like to undertake.

Preliminary application forms can either be completed on the day, or posted to us at a later time.

Step Three - Interviews

Once we have received your application form we will arrange a time for you to meet with a member of our Recruitment Team.

Our interviewer will:

•  Endeavour to learn more about you and the reasons you are wanting to become a volunteer

•  Help you complete an Application Form
•  Ask you for the names of two referees
•  Ask your permission to undertake a Police Record Check of you

Following the interview with our Recruitment Team we will arrange a time for you to meet with the Manager of the area in which you have chosen to volunteer

What happens next?

Following you attendance at an Interview, our Recruitment Team will carefully weight up your experiences and desires with the vacancies we have available - and notify you of whether or not we have been able to find a suitable volunteer role for you

If you are successful, you will then be required to attend a full day's basic training designed to meet the needs of all new volunteers.
