For employment at the Council of the EU's General Secretariat in Brussels, Belgium, please consult the website of the European Personnel Selection Office, which offers examples of jobs available at the Council and explains the application process. The website includes information on the planning of present and future employment competitions and other useful information on working with the European Institutions.


INTERNSHIPS

The Council's Liaison Office in New York offers two internship sessions per year, from 1 September to mid-February and from mid-February to 31 July (4 interns for each session).

The program, which is highly selective, offers interns the opportunity to follow the activities of the Council's Liaison Office and the EU Member States in UN bodies such as the Security Council, the General Assembly and its various committees.

The internships are in principle unpaid, however interns are provided with a small allowance for the entire duration of the internship (currently around € 1350,-). Interns will be required to work full-time (35-40 hours per week) during their internship period.

Prospective interns must
• hold a valid passport from one of the 27 EU Member States

• have completed minimum three years of university-level courses preferably in political science, economics, development studies, environment studies, human rights/humanitarian law

• be fluent in English, the main working language of the Delegation; a working knowledge of French is an asset

• provide proof of comprehensive medical and accident insurance that is valid in the USA and Canada (covering hospitalization, surgery, and repatriation, if necessary)

• not have already benefited from previous in-service training or employment (paid or unpaid) with any of the EU institutions or bodies for more than eight weeks.
