GUIDELINES FOR JOB/INTERSHIP EVALUATIONS

Evaluations should be of short to medium length (max. 3000 words) and should be in a form of a serious account rather than a personal story. Apart from the author's opinion it should include such things as official and unofficial requirements for the job, advice on job-hunting, details on day-to-day activities, mobility and flexibility in the job, career perspectives and other aspects of the job that could be of help for newcomers.

The following questions should guide your job/internship evaluation. They are guidelines what means that not all of them must be answered.
