The applications for the “Estagiar U,” a traineeship programme for young university students at a Bachelor’s and Master’s level living in the Azores, are taking place during the month of May.
“Estagiar U” aims to encourage a more efficient integration of young graduates in the business world, through the promotion of human capital and the business spirit as a corner stone of an efficient employment policy.
The traineeships will take place from July 15 to September 30, lasting one month and being promoted by public and private companies.
Furthermore, the traineeship will be accomplished in a daytime timetable based on 35-hour week, providing students a financial compensation which is fully assured by the Government, the amount corresponding to the minimum wage stipulated for the apprentice category (378 Euros).
Applications will be analysed by the Regional Directorate for Labour, Vocational Training and Consumer Defence.
Those who are interested may obtain more information at the Programme Section for Labour from the Regional Directorate in Ponta Delgada and the Agencies for Qualification, Employment and Labour in Angra do Heroísmo and Horta.
