REPOSTING THE UPDATE for Magic Link: NCP replied to my question regarding the phase on the magic link. Note that the institution has a long history in MSCA (approx. 5 IF/PF per year). The proposals that go through the Evaluation and the Quality Check (there are 3 like quality managers who need to a...

Guys, again, ranking means score above 70%, I am sure.. Last year, only early rankers got funding. There is also possible to see the time when was the last funded ranking and the first ranking on the reserve list. I subscribe to this, although I'm not sure about the second part (early ranking = fun...

I applied for a backup postdoc because my current one is ending, but they are asking me to sign this week... I will try to make things go slowly, but I hope MSCA won't send the results on March 31st Oh, I see. That's a tough decision to make because if you first sign and then resign you might lose ...

I really hope so, because if it's too late this week, I might have to renounce to my MSCA fellowship :cry: Why? Why will you have to renounce the MSCA? I applied for a backup postdoc because my current one is ending, but they are asking me to sign this week... I will try to make things go slowly, b...

A students' association from Greece asked directly the REA for the results. Have a look at the comments/replies here: https://twitter.com/REA_research/status/1503325408917442561 Can't open it. Could you please make a screenshot? Thank you Thanks for the link. I can only read 2 complaints, no answer...

My NCP said "during this week". She said the results won't be published today, but in Tuesday-Wednesday. I think I'm not trusting in NCPs criteria hahaha Uhm... so perhaps starting from midnight tonight? I still have a last spark of hope, which however could be extinguished very easily if the EC ke...

This is hilarious

Indeed. Like when you read page 3 of 2 in pdf

If the results are being postponed, you would have thought that the EC knew about this before today or the weekend, so how difficult would it have been for them to change the inform date in the portal? Just like last year, it's the poor communication from them that is getting on the nerves of every...

That's a good question, and I don't know. Perhaps someone at the host institution or the NCPs might know about that. In my ancient times it was 12 months of the GA signature. EDIT: In fact, in the GA you need to indicate the actual start date and justify why you can't start as of the date of GA fin...
