" After the preliminary interview, we will compare your application with others' and a short list of the best candidates will be forwarded to the hosting company.
" The hosting company- Hotel will probably want to interview you as well
" The final decision will be made after the interview and you will be informed about the results and get full details about the Company together with your PLACEMENT CONTRACT.
What is a placement agreement?
You will be required to provide us and the hosting business with a placement agreement (convention de stage, Praktikumsvereinbarung, accordo di tirocinio, acuerdo de pr?cticas) before starting your placement. A placement agreement defines your status as a trainee undertaking a placement as part of studies and states the job description and dates of the placement. It is signed by you, your university and the hosting business. Ask your placement officer for a form, most academic institutions have one. Contact us if they do not have a placement agreement form.
For internships in GREECE, we will provide you with the placement agreement you would sign and give to your responsible placement teacher to sign as well.
