# 2. Post a Project

*You can post a project on your Organisation Dashboard or click* [*here*](https://timeauction.org/charities/projects/new) 

## **Tips to finding high-quality volunteers** 

### 1) Describe the project in one sentence

**Be as concise and provide as much information as you could**, so the volunteers know what is expected from them as a first impression. \
\
For example, specify the coding language if you're recruiting a Web Developer, or describe the video content and duration if you're looking for a Video Editor. 

| **DOs**                                                                                                                                                                | **DON'Ts**                                                                              |
| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p><strong>Video Editor</strong>: <br>Help us create and edit a 3-5 minutes video about gender equality </p>                                                           | <p><strong>Video Editor</strong>: <br>Help us make a video </p>                         |
| <p><strong>Content Creator:</strong> <br>Help us create 10 Instagram posts to promote our new program on providing further education for underprivileged children </p> | <p><strong>Content Creator:</strong> <br>Help us write some cool posts </p>             |
| <p><strong>Web Developer:</strong> <br>Help us add a donation function on our WordPress website with Javascript  </p>                                                  | <p><strong>Web Developer:</strong> <br>Help us code some functions on our website  </p> |

### 2) Specific Tasks

Be specific with the tasks you're asking the volunteers to do, and feel free to add your preference/requirements. You can add up to 5 tasks.&#x20;

Here's an example for a Legal Consultant:&#x20;

* Join an 1-hour briefing call with our team to understand our nonprofit structure&#x20;
* Advise us on a suitable legal structure we should adopt based on our objectives&#x20;
* We are looking for a volunteer who is a practicing lawyer with at least 3 years of experience within the industry&#x20;

### 3) Time Commitment

***Please note the maximum time commitment will be an estimation of 40 hours in total.***&#x20;

You have the option to put the time commitment **in total**, **per week** or **per month**.&#x20;

If you estimate that the volunteer project will take 30 hours per month, we recommend you to breakdown the time commitment and list the project as 8 - 10 hours per week. This may be a more realistic picture of the time commitment and may seem less intimidating for the volunteers.&#x20;
