Verification notes
Verified on ESO's current recruitment portal, advert 2025_0081. ESO states the role is rolling even though the portal header displays 31 December 2026. ESO provides accommodation, a monthly allowance and return travel but does not state the allowance amount. ESO explicitly states it does not sponsor visas for this internship. Official source rechecked on 31 August 2026; because ESO explicitly states there is no application deadline, this V2 leaves both structured deadline fields null rather than storing portal display text in the date-time field.
