Work & Travel USA program gives you the opportunity to spend up to 5 months working and traveling in the USA during your summer vacation.
While working at a great American company, you'll earn money to cover your expenses, meet new friends, improve your English skills, and gain valuable international work experience. After your job is complete (up to 4 months of work allowed), you can spend the last month of the program traveling throughout the US, discovering all the beauty and excitement this vast country has to offer.
Hello World can offer you two ways to participate in the Work & Travel USA program. You may choose a spring/summer job from a list at our office (Full-Placement), or you can find your own job, and have us confirm it for you (Self-Placement).
