EPSO COMPETITIONS

Hi all. I've recently got an e-mail which reads as follows:

Hi Everybody! Does anyone know if it is possible to upload my CV to my Epso account in more than one language? If not, is English the best option?

Thanks!

Does anyone per chance know whether the classroom training on March 23rd, Mastering The EPSO Computer-Based Tests, is also suitable for AD5-profiles?

As in: general administrator?

Thank you in advance!

Hi there,

Hi guys! 

I recently passed the reasoning and the competency tests for the CAST project management competition (to my surprise!).

I was wondering if there is an indication about when we might hear back from the recruiting services. I would really appreciate it to hear your experience.

Thank you very much in advance!

Just wondering if anybody would like to share their experience of structured competency interview, especially with regard to the timing.

The Ultimate EU Test Book mentions that if you have 5 competencies tested, you may expect 25 questions in 50 minutes. Theoretically it's 2 minutes per question, but let's face it, by the time you deduct the time for introduction, asking a question, or even 5 seconds between questions, you will end up having max 1min30 seconds per question which is rather short and definitely a challenge to carry your point across.

Hi everyone,

I would like to know whether you have more concrete information about the questions EPSO is asking in the motivation interview.
Has anyone already gone to the AC within the 2018 AD5 competition?

Thanks.

Hi, While this webstie is very useful, I find it somehow full of information. I would only nee dto know: is there a way to prepare for CAST in faster way than 10 weeks?; how can I choose the language for the test as well as prep. ?; Tips to better understand the logic of Verbal, numerical and Abstract reasoning. I used to have a book that explained those very clearly (cannot find it anylonger), and I find this website lacking of it. Perhaps I have missed out something? thanks 

Hi there,

I have been invited for a selection procedure at the JRC in Ispra as an Auxiliary contract agent Function Group IV. 

Could anyone please help me with an estimation of the net salary? I know the basics but cannot find details on how much community tax I would be required to pay (with partner, 1 child).

Also, does anybody have any information about the nature of the selection procedure and tips on how best to prepare?

thanks a lot in advance!

Chris

Dear all,

I'm participating now in AD5 generalist competition. 

I noticed that for other compeitions after assessment centre there is one date for publishing final results (around 2 months after AC) and then another date for publication of reserve list in the OJ (a month after final results).

When do you get the information that you passed the competition? Do you already know it after receiving final results or do you have to wait for the official reserve list?

Thanks a lot!
