This form collects the information required to organise your ERC mock interview. Your answers will help us assign suitable panelists, schedule the session according to your availability and time zone, manage observers, and prepare a mock interview that reproduces real ERC conditions as closely as possible.
Panel composition and selection
Two experts (ERC grantees or former ERC panel members with thematic affinity) will conduct the mock. All panelists sign confidentiality and conflict-of-interest agreements with FECYT. If you have someone in mind who you think would be an excellent panelist, we would greatly appreciate your suggestion (name, affiliation and email).
Conflicts of interest
If you have any conflict of interest with potential panelists (persons or institutions), please indicate it. We will ensure that no conflicting panelist is invited.
Observers and participation in other mocks
You may authorise candidates from other domains to observe your mock. If you wish to observe other mocks, note that you cannot attend those from your own domain. Also, observing others implies agreeing to allow observers in your own mock when applicable.
Dates and availability
Mock interviews are planned to take place mainly in September. Please indicate the days in September when you are unavailable.
If you might also be available in July or August (optional), feel free to indicate this as well.
You may specify your availability in as much detail as possible (e.g. not available from 1–5 September in the mornings (CET)).
If you do not live in the CET time zone, please indicate your time zone to facilitate coordination.
Documentation for preparation
To allow panelists to prepare, please upload either the “Proposal-SEP-number” document or a single file containing: page 1 (General Information), Section C (Resources), Section 5 (Other Questions), B1 and B2.
This information is essential for us to start identifying and inviting suitable panelists.
Maximum size: 10 MB.
Confidentiality and data use
The information you provide will be used exclusively to organize and manage the mocks (panelist selection, scheduling, notifications). FECYT will process the data for organizational and contact purposes; by submitting the form, you consent to this use. If you need us to delete your data after the mock, please indicate it (we will proceed according to current regulations).
