The booking period for AST3 candidates in the field of parliamentary work has just started. At this competition, the way Computer Based Tests are organized is different from the usual AST3 exam setup.
Professional skills tests and Situational Judgment tests are excluded this time and everything depends on the classic triumvirate of pre-selection tests: the verbal, abstract and numerical reasoning tests (EPSO/AST/134/14).
This is exactly why our experts at Online EU Training recorded three new webinars on these all-time favourites of EPSO. Each webinar focuses on just a single test type explaining in detail the methodology and logic behind it while also leaving space for many practical tips. Typical examples of EPSO style exam questions are discussed and solved one-by-one focusing on the best strategies and how you can avoid common pitfalls.
The new recordings are available individually, or if you take preparation seriously, you can get the complete AST 3 Abstract - Numerical - Verbal reasoning package, where these new webinars are bundled together with 600 of each type of reasoning questions and some hefty discounts.
Key dates to note:
- Pre-selection tests for AST3 candidates will take place between 16 March, 2015 and 17 April, 2015.
- The case study is currently scheduled for 23 July, 2015 in the test centres in the 28 Member States (not outside the EU).
- Assessment Centre tests will take place as of September in Brussels.
