The SRB is part of the EC Bluebook Traineeship Programme and is open to university graduates from all over the world. Trainees are given the same type of tasks as newly-recruited graduates. In practice, this includes organising working groups and meetings, compiling information and documentation, preparing reports and answering questions, as well as participating in unit meetings and other events.

EU citizenship is not obligatory (a small number of places are reserved for non-EU citizens), but knowledge of two EU languages is required. Work experience and postgraduate education is a plus, but not an eligibility criterion.

Duration: 5 months

Paid: Yes. €1,220.78 and travel allowance - The Bluebook Traineeship is organized twice a year.
