There’s no denying it’s a hectic time in the life of a student. With massive amounts of competition out there, gap travel experts Real Gap Experience and i to i Volunteering understand that it is a difficult time for young people either trying to secure a place at university or to stand out in the job market.

In light of that, they have combined forces to launch a global search for two lucky candidates to win a once in a lifetime money-can’t-buy opportunity with the Ultimate Year Out. Not only will they win some amazing travel experiences and travel the world, they’ll also have guaranteed work placements in the travel industry in Real Gap and i to i Volunteering’s global offices. With research showing that most employers (45%)* look for work experience when recruiting graduates, the Ultimate Year Out will give two candidates the perfect starting point.

What does the Ultimate Gap Year Out include?

The two lucky winners will travel and discover Thailand, South Africa, Australia and the USA. Whilst visiting some of the world’s most stunning destinations and every gap year’s hot spots, they’ll be provided with the tools to report back via blogs and video. By documenting their fantastic experiences abroad, the winners will not only be armed with an arsenal of material to drive their Facebook friends wild with jealousy, they’re also creating a potential portfolio to impress future employers. With guaranteed work experience in Boston, Melbourne and the UK as part of the Ultimate Year Out, this lucky pair will be bolstering their CV whilst they globetrot, setting themselves up for a headstart on the fierce competition once they arrive back home.
