General guidelines for prospective applicants
Early Stage Researchers (ESR):
Early-stage researchers are defined as those in the first four years (full-time equivalent) of their research careers, starting at the date of obtaining the degree which would formally entitle them to embark on a doctorate, either in the country in which the degree was obtained or in the country in which the research training is provided, irrespective of whether or not a doctorate is envisaged.
Experienced Researchers (ER):
An ER must, at the time of recruitment either be in possession of a doctoral degree, irrespective of the time taken to acquire it, or have at least four years of full-time equivalent research experience, this is measured from the date when they obtained the degree which formally allowed them to embark on the doctorate in the country in which the degree was obtained or in the host country (irrespective of whether or not a degree was envisaged). The research experience of an ER recruited may not exceed 5 years at the time of appointment.
Conditions of nationality and mobility of researchers
Researchers are normally required to undertake trans-national mobility (i.e. move from one country to another) when taking up their appointment. Two general rules apply to the appointment of researchers in a network:
- Researchers can be nationals of any country other than the country of the premises of the host organisation where they will carry out their project; however nationals of countries outside the EU and Associated States can only be recruited by hosts that are located in Member States or Associated States.
- Researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity in the country of the host for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to their recruitment.
