Are you a displaced person in the EU fleeing the war in Ukraine and are you allowed to work in the EU as benefitting from temporary protection pursuant to the Temporary Protection Directive?
As of 1 April 2025, the EURES portal will undergo some technical changes to enhance our services and the jobseekers’ experience.
The EURES EU Talent Pool Pilot jobseeker accounts and related services will be centralised on Europass, a platform offering powerful digital tools to support skills transparency, lifelong learning, and labour mobility.
Please note that at the moment of the submission of your CV you will have to declare whether you are:
- a Ukrainian national who was residing in Ukraine at the time of the start of the war benefitting from temporary protection in the EU
- a third country national or stateless person benefitting from temporary protection as you were legally residing in Ukraine at the time of the start of the war with refugee status or with equivalent national protection
- benefitting from temporary protection as family member of one of the two abovementioned categories
- a third country national or stateless person benefitting from temporary protection as legally residing in Ukraine on the basis of a valid permanent residence permit, and unable to return to the country or origin.
Temporary protection refers to the protection status granted in accordance to the Temporary Protection Directive and established by Council Implementing Decision 2022/382 to support those fleeing the war in Ukraine.
You can also always access support from public employment services (PES) in your country of residence, to help you find job opportunities in the EU countries.
