2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)

The UK NCP does not want to share the results. They have been vague in the email saying that they still don’t know when the results wil be communicated. So I assume no one would be able to get it through them.

Hey Smart People,
I would appreciate if you advise me on one issue.
I got my PhD two years ago, since then I haven't had any academic employment, since then I'm freelancing in the non-academic sector to make ends meet. Moreover, I haven't had employment during my PhD studies as well. I'm frequently applying for various positions and up to now it was a failure. And by the time my hope that I will get some position, even a temporary one is diminishing. And I feel that MSCA-IF-2018 is my last chance to get onto the board.
If I fail this one too, what are the chances that I will get some even temporary research position in EU or elsewhere?

Answer received from EU funding office at my host university in Germany. Ask around, results are probably distributed to another international offices too. And DAMN they have results since Wednesday.
~10k applications and ~14% acceptance rate is almost a magic to win. This is a massive FRUSTRATION ! I will try something else with the same proposal.
Best of luck!

Keep in mind that even if the evaluation<70/ranking>70 hypothesis is true, it only increases the chances from ~14% to ~20% for those who are in ranking. So still ~80% probability of rejection...
Re: 2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)
True. Number of <70 vs accepted is almost the same for some panels. The most of us ranked are probably in between and probably below winning threshold. I was ranking and got over 70.
Re: 2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)
That is not true, the chances of rejection are 65% for those in ranking...

Mine - says Evaluation. So does it mean it is rejected then .
