salary policy for PhD candidate in Spain/Barcelona
A

Hi all,
I am wondering if someones can share his/her experience with PhD salary in Spain. I got shortlisted and interviewed for a PhD position in material science in Barcelona. I asked about salary, but the interviewer only told me about the monthly salary (1100 euro). I also forgot to ask for more detail, so this is my mistake. I am still wondering about more detail, like does it increase over time, do I get settlement fee, how about insurance, etc.I am pretty sure that it will cover some basic needs, and even some luxury, despite seems lower than standard salary in French (Paris) and Sweden. I will not complain for some increases though (if I get accepted of course :) ).
I hope someones here can share his knowledge for the matter. It will be very appreciated.

cheers,

Hi Dunham, Thanks for the reply. It is a relief and another stress at the same time.

PhD application in during June-July

Hi all,
I am wondering about the process of PhD admission during a holiday season (June-July). I got interviewed for a PhD position in Sweden last month. I felt great about the interview, but still have not heard any response about it. The interviewer said that the response will be late since administration people are not around. The prospective supervisor himself goes for a holiday in July.
Since I am already stressed out about the decision, can anyone share any relevant experiences if a PhD application process is slow on these months

cheers,
AA
