Program Details
The program consists of helping five days a week, with shifts of 6 hours per day and 2 days off. The shifts are rotating, so they may vary between morning, afternoon, or night according to the needs of the hostel and the organization of the team.
During the shift, you will mainly collaborate in reception and at the bar, helping to welcome and assist our guests, respond to inquiries, prepare and serve drinks, and keep the work areas clean and organized.
We aim for the exchange to be a pleasant experience for everyone: you will have clear responsibilities, you will work alongside our team, and you will have your days off to rest, get to know Huacachina, explore the dunes, and enjoy your trip.
We highly value responsibility, punctuality, a good attitude, and willingness to work as a team. 🏜️🌵🍹
