DAAD Development-Related Postgraduate Courses 2016 Entry

[crookedfootstep]

Hello,

 

I was wondering whether anyone has applied to the DAAD-EPOS Scholarship? I'm applying for the Development Management in Ruhr-University Bochum and have begun to collect my Letter of Recommendations and all other necessary documents.

 

As for those who have successfully passed DAAD in previous years, any advice on how to get into the program?

 

I'm rather concerned about the "employment" situation.  I recently graduated from a Master program in my country but I feel I need a more internationally-recognized degree.  Being a recent graduate, I do not presently have any employer that I could indicate in the applications.  However, prior to this, I have more than four years of working experience in the development field.  Do you think that being unemployed (although with previous extensive experience), would make less qualified from being granted a scholarship?
