Selection Report Preliminary Rounds of EYP the Netherlands 2013 – 2014
Dear alumni of EYP the Netherlands, It is with great pleasure that we hereby announce the officials teams of the upcoming Preliminary Rounds. Already with a wonderful team of head-organisers and presidents, we now have all the teams complete which can be found below. The board convened for the selection on the 18th of October. Each applicant was discussed individually. The board also decided to take a certain freedom to select people for positions they did not apply for (for example, someone applies as a chairperson, and is selected as a journalist). The board felt they had a good idea of who would fit in which role and as such decided to take the preferred role as a second factor. Moreover, the board set some guidelines for itself before the selection took place: the board was to aim at balanced teams by means of experience, role preference, and mostly gender. Though the board also felt that these guidelines should not stand in the way of a good selection and therefore a perfect gender balance was not always reached. Lastly, the board found it very important to select as many people as possible. Therefore, no one was selected twice, expect for one jury member. All applicants were notified of the outcome individually. We very much encourage the unsuccessful applicants to ask for feedback as to improve their applications for the future. In case you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch through applications@eyp.nl. We very much look forward to the upcoming Preliminary Rounds! Kind regards, Barteld, Christien, Khalid, Tom & Zahra The board of EYP the Netherlands
