I applied online. I interviewed at European Institute for Gender Equality (Vilnius) in Apr 2025
Interview
My first interview took place in spring and then, they never update me about the process, 4 months later when i sent them an email they said that they already found someone and he/she already started. The process was not transparent and I already let them know that I was waiting for a reply.

Interview
The interview was well-structured. Recruiters were 4 and asked 3 questions that you were supposed to answer within a time limit. One of the questions, for instance, was "According to you, what does it mean gender mainstreaming?". Finally, they asked your availability and left some space for you questions, if any.

Interview
Writing test, oral presentation and interview. The written test took one hour, consisting on drafting a press release on a given report, proposing infographics and drafting a Facebook and Twitter update. One hour means having to work really fast. Those notes you took in the writing test were later used for the presentation of the report in front of the committee. The presentation lasted 5 minutes.
Workers in the institute were incredibly warm and welcoming. The committee was a trusting one and tried to bring a relaxed atmosphere. It was a great experience that shows that good professionals work in EIGE.
