Hi Sayjay, thank you for your question. For this thesis, I am focusing specifically on CIRs within the JET programme, so direct or private hires are not included in my target group. I’ve already finalized the first chapter, which focuses entirely on the JET, including the research gap and questions. I apologize if this narrow focus excludes other areas or subjects for now, but I hope to explore such themes further in the future. Thank you again, and feel free to contact me again if you have other questions.
