Erasmus + Placement Programme
PubAffairs offers Erasmus+ traineeship opportunities for students who are about to graduate and recent graduates aims at providing hands-on experience in EU public policy monitoring, communication, partnership outreach as well as on other EU-related fields, such as legal research and policy analysis. The placement should last for a minimum of 6 months and a maximum of 12 months.
Calls for applications are published on both our website and ErasmusCareers.org and may also be advertised through your university’s or educational institution’s website. In any case, applications are subject to our selection process and are conditional to the approval of the placement by the institution from which you are graduating or have graduated. For this reason, we strongly encourage you to contact the competent office and/or the responsible person at your educational institution in advance to confirm that you are eligible for the placement.
Most of the Erasmus+ placements are assigned through a call for application. However, we also accept spontaneous candidacies, which are reviewed on a rolling basis.
Calls for applications reviewed upon publication :
Erasmus+ Placement – Comms & Policy
Erasmus+ Placement – Legal or equivalent
Junior Professional Fellowships (JPF) Programme
PubAffairs offers fellowship opportunities aimed at giving young professionals, with a strong EU policy and legal background, the opportunity to gain advanced hands-on experience in various EU-related fields (such as public policy monitoring, legal research, gathering policy insights and communication outreach and/or public relations), through a one-year fellowship. Fellowships are meant to lead to a permanent contract at the end of their 12th months period.
Given the increased level of opportunities available, PubAffairs has changed the selection procedure and will accept applications for both the Communication & Policy and Legal or equivalent position throughout the year and evaluate them on a rolling basis. Please note that this is not a simple spontaneous candidacy, but you should be prepared to commit for one year, namely the duration of the entire programme, when you submit your application.
Special calls for applications may be posted and advertised, if necessary.
