Many students and graduates aspire to an internship or career in the context of the European Union or international careers. However, it is not always easy to find one’s way around and find the right path to one’s goal.
In order to find out more about how to work in these areas and what the opportunities are for students, graduates and young professionals, our series of monthly online meetings dedicated to different professional profiles continues with a new guest:

Delphine Piraprez, Interpreter Support and Training Unit, Directorate-General for Logistics and Interpretation for Conferences, European Parliament.

"French-speaking Belgian born in the 70's, I joined the European Parliament in 2016 as a translator, after 20 years happily spent in the academic and teaching world.
As a linguist, I could only see myself working with languages at first, but I quickly realized that the more organisational and even political aspects of working for the Parliament's administration were also of great interest to me so I changed position to become an advisor to the Director-General for translation. In the spring of 2020, I joined DG LINC, the interpretation services of the European Parliament, where I am now in charge of organising training events for interpreters, thus combining my interests for languages and training again.
Multilingualism is at the core of European democracy, and contributing to making the Parliament work in 24 languages is an extremely motivating commitment and a genuine source of pride for me."
