Job Overview:
The position is part of the EZ-Trainee program, which is a youth development program initiated by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) for German and multilateral development cooperation. The GIZ conducts this program on behalf of the BMZ, training young professionals and leaders in development cooperation through three distinct phases. In the first phase, trainees spend eight months working on a GIZ project in a partner country.

The third phase consists of a five-month assignment at the BMZ in Bonn or Berlin. This internship will provide insights into the management and implementation of the trainee program, as well as the reporting processes to the BMZ and the GIZ's youth development initiatives.

Duties and Responsibilities:
The intern will support the Expost survey for the 2023 trainee cohort, which includes evaluating survey results and gaining insights into the management and implementation of the trainee program. The intern will also be involved in reporting to the BMZ and will gain exposure to the GIZ's youth development strategies. This role is crucial for understanding the impact of the trainee program and contributing to its continuous improvement.

Educational Background:

It is essential that the candidate is currently enrolled in their studies or is in a training program that requires the completion of an internship as an integral part of their education. Additionally, candidates who have graduated within the last six months are also eligible to apply.

Experience:
Candidates should have prior experience with qualitative and quantitative research methodologies, particularly in the context of surveys. This experience can be gained through academic projects, internships, or relevant work experience in research or human resources.

Languages:
Fluency in German at the C1 level is mandatory for this position. While not explicitly stated, proficiency in English or other languages may be considered an asset, particularly in an international organization like GIZ.
