Round 1 – Documents

The first round consists of sending the following documents:

  • External applicants (those that have not participated in the Delegation) are also very welcome to apply. From them, we also kindly ask to provide the contact details of 2 references (think here of mentors, team-mates or professors from previous engagements)

You will be informed whether you have been accepted for an interview within two weeks after the deadline has been closed.
