The Commission offers every year a limited number of unpaid internships. Interns usually work on projects such as limited research or studies. Opportunities for internships are available subject to the current needs and resources of the individual Divisions within the Secretariat.

Internships should not be shorter than three months and not longer than six months on a full-time basis. As the Commission cannot provide financial support for interns, all successful applicants are expected to make their own arrangements for travel, lodging, living expenses and insurance during the internship period.

Interested candidates who are under 30 years of age and who are advanced in their studies towards a university degree or have already received a degree should complete a Personal History Form and send us a letter of interest. Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. However, please bear in mind that there is no guarantee of placement. We receive many more applications from qualified candidates than we can place. Placement is subject to the availability of meaningful assignments.
