Apply without prejudice
The Viadrina is actively committed to diversity and equality for all employees in its Human Resources policy. People affected by racism, people with a family history of migration or flight, trans* inter* and non-binary people and people with disabilities are explicitly encouraged to apply. People with a severe disability or equivalent will be given priority if they have the same aptitude and qualifications. It is advisable to indicate any (severe) disability in the application. If you have any questions regarding the job advertisement or equal opportunities and inclusion measures, please contact the Equal Opportunities Officer, the Representative for severely disabled persons or the Equal Opportunities Department. All enquiries will be treated confidentially.
For the procedure without prejudice, we use an online application portal for the non-academic positions, which allows an anonymised pre-selection. We are currently in the process of switching from email applications to online applications and the first selection procedures are now possible via this portal. If you are interested in a position and open the PDF of the job advertisement, you will be redirected to the Valucon application portal. You must register to take part in the application process. If you have any questions, please contact us.
Until the complete changeover is terminated, the application by email to bewerbung@europa-uni.de still applies for some recruitment procedures. Of course we pay attention to equal opportunities. We select the best candidates and organise the selection process in a non-discriminatory manner.
