Peace Corps Brazil Work Values

Daily Duties at Peace Corps Brazil:

I was actually stationed in Guaçuí, Espírito Santo, Brazil, where I worked in community development (I was dropped off in a small town, told "have at it," and (with no supervision) I had to determine what "it" was. I taught ESL, helped initiate a poultry farm, collaborated on the contruction of two new school buildings, and served as a "catalyst" in the start-up of city trash collection.

What they like about Peace Corps Brazil:

Working for a company with an emphasis on social values and helping society is a clear and important priority for you - a critical factor in who you choose to work for. In contrast to other factors, you place an organization's reputation for fairness and concern for the community above most other aspects of the company. As you search for a new job opportunity, it is usually possible to find out if the company is involved in the community and/or if it is addressing problems and issues in society. Pay special attention to non-profit organizations and those specifically involved in social action. Moreover, speaking with current and former employees should enlighten you to perceptions of the fairness of the company's leaders and the treatment of employees.
