Is it actually possible to become an EU civil servant or similar position while not being a citizen? I feel quite strongly (positive) about European federalism and was always rather frustrated by a "not part of the cool kids". So I'm really wondering how a non-EU national can become involved in official Europe because that'd probably be my dream.
If it helps to know that, I studied political science in Zurich, did an exchange in Maastricht (European Studies minor) and will do a masters in European Politics in Amsterdam. Would I have a chance to work in the EU or does my citizenship make that impossible? (I guess worst chance I can try with the Swiss negotiation team, but that'd feel kinda like betraying my own beliefs)
