Twice a year, the Commission offers five-month paid, administrative or translation internships. For each period, the Commission’s Traineeships Office determines the exact number of trainees to be attributed to each Directorate General, Service and Agency, depending on the budget availability and the existing conditions (size, absorption capacity, results of the evaluations carried out, etc.).

A traineeship in DGT means literally a full-time job in translation. If you don't know if translation suits you, you will find out here. Anyway, there comes a moment in this "unrepeatable experience" when you find out what you want to do further, what defines you the most. This traineeship invites you and makes you leave your comfort zone. Même pour ça, ça vaut le...
