I lobbied several units from DG MARKT, and from two of them I received an email letting me know they won't have a trainee in the next round.

Hello everyone and good luck everyone..

Have you ever heard about any traineeship suspension case??

What is Kenneth Bell's email address? Or whoever is in charge of the Mexico unit in EEAS. Many, many thanks! The firstname.surname@eeas.europa.eu didn't work nor with "ec" instead of "eeas". Any help much appreciated!

Same here. The units I am interested in are Unit A1 – Policy and coherence, Unit A2 – Aid and Development Effectiveness and Financing and Unit B2 – Governance, Democracy, Gender, Human Rights.
(in this order)

I read a post on this forum from 2012 and it was stated that DEVCO usually selects its trainees without contacting them. I wonder if this is true...

Pan-African Affairs Unit, EEAS, neither.

Hi guys!

I have a werid question. Today, I received an email informing me that my lobby e-mail has been forwarded to our Human Resources Unit - does it mean that I'm one of the three nominated? Firstly, I thought it means nothing but later I received a call from another unit informing me that I'am one of the three and due to this they were going to forward my data to the HR Unit.

Has anybody heard from the Eurostat?

Hello guys! What kind of emails are you writing for lobbying? What should be included in it? I sent an email to my dream DG and it had a grammatical mistake which I found out later. Now I am really worried!

Hello guys,
does anyone have an email of Legal service expect the one in the preselection message?

Thank you

Marketo you have to go to http://ec.europa.eu/contact/members_en.htm Commission directory, find names of the people you want to contact from Legal service and write email in the form of firstname.lastname@ec.europa.eu These are like the only unoffocial addresses that you can find.

Thank you very much, actually I was wondering how everybody is contacting all units.

I have gotten replies indicating that the following units do not take trainees for next session:

External Relations, Neighbourhood Policy, Enlargement, IPA (EMPLA.A.4)

Asylum and Migration Fund (HOME.B.3)

I suppose also DG JUST is not accepting trainees since it was not in our list of contacts within the pre-selection messagge. Anyway, I had email also from:
DG EMPL, Unit A.4.
DG SANCO, Unit A.1
that they won't have trainee this round.

Any news from DG Trade? Thank you.

EEAS III B.4 Central Asia not hosting trainees

Hi all,

Has anyone heard from DG COMM or other Communication units?

Thanks and good luck!

Hey,

Has anyone heard from DG Enlargement?

Good luck everyone!

Thanks for sharing, that was one of the units I wanted.

The wait is killing me, it's discouraging that I have yet to hear anything but I guess that is the way things are.

Congrats to those who already had interviews and/or good news , and thanks to everyone who has been sharing information so far  

Regional Policy E4 is also not hosting trainees.

Me too! I think EEAS generally take very few trainees(as I heard from last year), but it's always good to try!

DG Trade Services and Investment, Intellectual Property and Public Procurement will not have trainees either.
