In short

European Commission board of research jobs. Filter First Stage Researcher (R1) for doctoral-candidate posts. Each ad is owned by the employer; apply on that employer’s process, not through Opporiva or EURAXESS as recruiter.

Who can apply

Education
Official R1 profile: research under supervision up to the point of a PhD. Individual ads usually ask for a master’s or equivalent; that is on the vacancy, not on the board overview.
Career stage
Use Researcher Profile First Stage Researcher (R1) and/or Academic Level PhD Positions. R1 is the filter EURAXESS’s own how-to names for PhD search. It is not a guarantee every result is a doctoral contract.
