Application & selection procedure

To better coordinate internships and to be able to assess in a transparent way all requests, the EFRJ Secretariat evaluates 2 times a year all applications received. This means that a general call for interns is always open, and short-listed applicants can expect a response within one month after the deadline:

•  Call for the autumn internship (deadline to apply: 15 April) for internship periods running from ~ September to February (autumn semester);
• Call for the spring internship (deadline to apply: 15 October) for internship periods running from ~ February to August (spring semester). 

The exact period of the internship may be discussed with the shortlisted candidates during the selection process. 

Before each deadline, the EFRJ Secretariat discusses the needs and capacities for hosting an intern and makes a decision about the profile searched (e.g. policy intern, communication intern, research intern, administrative intern). The EFRJ Secretariat makes the selection, with the involvement of Board members if necessary. 

Please note that, within one month after the deadline, only short-listed applicants will be contacted and invited for an interview. Because of the large number of applications, the EFRJ Secretariat may not be able to give feedback to all applicants.

The EFRJ may host a maximum of 2 interns at a time.

For the general conditions and the desired profiles and skills of the interns, deadlines for application and selection procedure, see above.
