eSkills for Jobs 2015 is currently running its European video competition. This competition is an opportunity to highlight and reward persons with a high level of digital skills at a European level.

The competition focuses on identifying concrete successful initiatives made possible by the use of ICT and through a mastery of eSkills. The aim is to reach out to motivated and talented young people (aged 16 and over), business leaders, policymakers, ICT practitioners, NGOs, educators, job seekers, and entrepreneurs.

The eSkills video competition is open to all European citizens. Videos could be submitted in the following three categories:

·        Digital Citizenship (target: business leaders, ICT practitioners, NGOs)

·        Digital Entrepreneurship (target: entrepreneurs)

·        Most inspirational career campaigner (target: job seekers and career changers)

·        Young digital talent competition (target: young people aged 16 – 30 years old)

eSkills for Jobs 2015 has also recently launched the Young digital talent competition with the idea to reach out talented young people from across Europe who want to test their skills at coding. The competition is looking for original animation created by using the specially designed CODA application. No prior coding experience is required to participate in the competition – all you need to do is show enthusiasm for coding challenge and creativity! The competition is a unique chance to get young people’s talents recognised!
