28. How to search and
apply for a GCDP/ GIP

29. Matching
The concept of matching itself is very simple. You browse the
available TNs on the system and email them for the TN you
like.
If they find you suitable then they will start correspondence
with you, which can be in the form of emails, skype interviews
etc.
If both of you are satisfied with the TN then you will be
exchanging an official document called the Acceptance Note
(AN) which will make the match official. (The AN would be
provided to you)
Once the ANs have been exchanged you are officially be
matched with that Traineeship.
Once you are matched the visa process can be started go!

30. Matching
i) Email the TN Manager from your AIESEC mail
ii) adding them on skype, g-talk, linkedin or facebook. The more
personalized the method the more the chance of a reply.
iii) Don’t get bogged down if they don’t respond to you, remember
there are 113 countries out there waiting for you.
iv) You will be assigned EP managers, who are outgoing exchange
members, and would help you out in the whole process. They would
be sending you opportunities that they think are right for you as
well.
v) When your form is raised and you start searching for an internship,
you continuously have to fill out the EP tracker, where you
administer all of the TNs you have sent e-mails, and all of the steps
which were taken. This is a simple excel sheet you can make for
yourself to track the TNs you have already approached and the
progress on them. You would be required to share this tracker with
your EP manager on a weekly basis.

35. Alternate methods of Matching
Join all the AIESEC related groups and pages on facebook and
linkedin, and follow them regularly.
Various Local Committees (LCs) have personal facebook accounts
with the LC names (AIESEC XYZ) for fast and easy matching, so do
add them.
Type ‘AIESEC’ in the skype name on skype add contacts tool, and you
would see a list of skype names with AIESEC in them. Some examples
include, AIESEC.genova, AIESEC.jordan, AIESEC.puerto.rico – Do add
them, and keep in touch with them.
By using the above social media tools you will be able to see the
activities arranged by different countries in the world. One of the
most important one is the Matching Mania. Join matching manias on
skype, and get matched quickly as they bring together many LC’s to a
single place, all presenting the opportunities they have for you.

You CANNOT break your match
once AN’s have been exchanged.
