Ongoing competitions
If you have already applied for a competition, and wish to find out further scheduling information after the closing date, please consult for regular updates.
How to Apply
To apply for an open competition you must use the on-line application system. On this page, you can consult the vacancy notices and then click on the “Apply” button next to the one that interests you. You will then have to fill an on-line application and submit it before the deadline of the competition (midnight French time).
All applications must be made on-line using this system, apart from in exceptional and justified circumstances (in this case, please contact us before the deadline by sending an email to recruitment@coe.int). The Council of Europe will not accept applications sent by post, fax or e-mail.
Before beginning the application process, you will need to have an e-mail address in order to set up a user account. Once you have registered you will receive a confirmation by e-mail of your user account details and can then proceed with the application.
All applications must be completed in either English or French. Applications completed in other languages will not be taken into consideration.
You do not need to enter all information in one session. You can save your details at any point and return to complete the application at a later time by logging on your user account and clicking on “Submit my application” before the deadline (midnight French time).
