Interview stage came to a successful end

The interview period of the 2018 UEFA Super Cup Volunteer Program has ended. In 2 to 3 weeks the Volunteer Team will make the final decision and choose 140 volunteers.

Altogether 289 people submitted applications and over the course of two weeks, 251 candidates were interviewed either via Skype or in the Estonian Football Association press conference centre at the Lilleküla Stadium. Eventually, 140 volunteers will have the chance to be a part of organising the 2018 UEFA Super Cup in Tallinn.

Over the next 2 to 3 weeks, all the applicants will be notified by email. Please be noted, that the need of the volunteers vary by areas: some areas will involve 2 to 4 volunteers and in others 20 to 30 volunteers is needed. That means, not all the volunteers will be able to receive assignments in the areas they marked in their application forms. In that case, the Volunteer Team might offer spots in different areas.

The 2018 UEFA Super Cup Volunteer Team would like to thank all the applicants for participating in the interviews!
I was enjoyable experience for us!

Tallinn, Estonia

Tallinn is the capital and largest city of Estonia. It is situated on the northern coast of the country, on the shore of the Gulf of Finland. The population of Tallinn is 449 604 (01.03.2018).

Tallinn, first mentioned in 1219, received city rights in 1248, but the earliest human settlements date back 5,000 years. The initial claim over the land was laid by the Danes in 1219 after a successful raid of Lyndanisse led by Valdemar II of Denmark, followed by a period of alternating Scandinavian and German rule. Due to its strategic location, the city became a major trade hub, especially from the 14th to the 16th century, when it grew in importance as part of the Hanseatic League.

Tallinn is named Lonely Planet’s Best Value Destination of 2018, is an amazing blend of old and new.

The world-famous Old Town was largely constructed between the 13th and 16th centuries and is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The city was a European Capital of Culture for 2011, along with Turku in Finland.
