This week’s spotlight

This week's article reveals a game-changing strategy for EU job applicants: saving your application texts before submitting.

A word from our team

🏠️ Housing costs in the EU are climbing rapidly, with home prices up about 5.5 % year-on-year and rents rising 3.1 %, continuing a decade-long trend of faster price growth than wage increases. Over the past decade, house prices have jumped roughly 64 % and rents over 21 % across the EU, with especially steep increases in countries like Hungary, Portugal, and Lithuania. For anyone considering work and life in the EU civil service, this means affordability pressures are real in many places, influencing which agency you might choose to work for.
