ERICA Recruitment Update
Notes:
• In general, it has been easier to recruit to the experimental projects rather than the numerical modelling projects.
• In general, we have found candidates are wary of applying to / accepting posts in the UK. We put this down to uncertainty surrounding BREXIT.
• Since all PhDs in Italy can start only on 1st November, the PhD registration and employment start date of ESR 2 hosted at UNIBO is out of synchronisation. Notwithstanding, all arrangements are in place to ensure that ESR2 can complete his PhD.
• Any others for the EC report?
