GMOS-Train is looking for a broad international representation of early stage researchers. The network clearly acknowledges its responsibility for the recruitment of the researchers, their working and living conditions, as stated in the document “The European Charter for Researchers – Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers”. Gender equality and minority rights will also be promoted in the selection process. There is no age limit.
- MOBILITY
The positions are open to all nationalities. However, your application has to comply with the European Commission’s Mobility Rules, meaning that at the time of recruitment you must not have resided or carried out your main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of the host organisation for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately before the reference date (indicative start of the employment contract, Month Date 2020). Compulsory national service and/or short stays such as holidays are not taken into account (European Commission’s Guide for Applicants).
- EARLY-STAGE RESEARCHER (ESR)
In case you have already gained prior work experience in academia, you shall be in the first four years (full-time equivalent research experience) of your research career at the time of recruitment by the host organisation and have not been awarded a doctoral degree. Full-time equivalent research experience is measured from the date when you obtained the degree entitling you to embark on a doctorate, even if a doctorate was never started or envisaged. Part-time research experience will be counted pro-rata (European Commission’s Guide for Applicants).
