European Union Office Internship

The European Union Office in Kosovo offers unpaid internships to young university graduates with a diploma and with less than one year of professional experience, as well as to students in the last year of university where the traineeship is a complement to their academic training. This program offers interns the opportunity to follow the daily work of the EU Office while learning about the representation of EU interests and values outside of the EU and at the same time offers the possibility of discovering directly the working environment of an international organization such as the EU.

Eligibility: To be considered for this program, applicants must:

• Hold a valid passport from one of the 28 EU Member States
• Have completed a minimum of three years of university-level courses, preferably in political science, law, economics, development studies, environment studies, human rights/humanitarian law or communications.
• Be fluent in English; knowledge of other EU languages would be an advantage; knowledge of the workings of the European Union would also be advantages.
• Be computer literate.
• If selected, provide proof of comprehensive medical and accident insurance valid in Kosovo for the duration of the internship (covering hospitalization, surgery, and repatriation, if necessary).
• Have not already benefited from previous in-service training or employment (paid or unpaid) with any of the EU institutions or bodies, including a "Blue Book" traineeship (NB: a "Blue Book" candidate who has not actually performed that traineeship is however eligible to apply for an internship with the Delegation).
