LAST MINUTE ANNOUNCEMENT FOR A TRAINEE
A last-minute traineeship announcement for an Erasmus or Leonardo - funded trainee from June to August or September 2014, for at least 3 months. Due to important peaks in our working year, it is important that the student is able to be in Macerata in June 2014, the traineeship cannot start in July.
Please note that we don’t need to stipulate or amend any Erasmus Bilateral Agreement that might be or have been in force between our two institutions, as the LLP Training Agreement document will do for the purpose.
The student for an Erasmus Placement training at our International office (University of Macerata, central Italy) should have fluent English as 2language and should be able to work with computers (basic admin software); knowledge of Italian language would be an asset.
The trainee will enjoy a great intercultural experience in an international students community, and at the same time will experience real Italian weather and lifestyle, strolling around in a historic, typically Italian medieval city centre w/bars, design clothing shops, traditional groceries etc...
We may well provide him/her accommodation (private single room with private bathroom) in one of the University residences (prices are about the same as a private flat) so that the student would not bother in looking for a room in the private market , with the risk of not finding one if s/he asks for 3 months only, and would live with other foreign and Italian students.
Please find herewith what I hope will be enough information to get an idea of the tasks & duties we will assign.
Our ideal candidate should:
- Have a scholarship by their home institution, within the Erasmus Placement or Leonardo programmes
- Have very good knowledge of English and Italian Language (the knowledge of any other European Language will be a plus)
