IR Career Starters - July 2022
Alexander Borum
Consultant @ European Union Institute for Security Studies | European Union Security & Defence Policy | Non-Traditional Security | International Affairs
Preamble
It can be a challenge to find the right path towards a dream career, especially when it is international relations; a domain where incredibly high levels of expectations and competition are hallmark challenges to overcome.
To help face these challenges, I have in the past produced a number guide articles to help students, graduates and young professionals in their efforts, and I have tried to outline the amazing opportunities offered by the young professionals programmes. However, guidance and tips can only take you so far, and finding the right opportunities can in itself be a significant challenge. Over the last year, I have shared several thousand internships, traineeships, fellowships and entry-level positions across the furthest reaches of the international affairs in monthly compilations, and this newsletter is the natural successor to these old posts, making it easier to track and avoiding third-party sites in facilitating the updates to those interested.
Enjoy!
