The European Personnel Selection Office (EPSO) has released the exam dates for the 2018 EPSO Administrators (AD5) competition's E-tray Exercise.
While the results of the Pre-Selection tests have not been announced yet (expected to be released mid-September), this new information offers the opportunity to start planning your preparation strategy for the next stage of this competition. Once the results are announced you won't have too much time to prepare before the intermediate exams take place, so it's important to plan ahead.
KEY DATES:
E-tray booking period: 26 September - 3 October 2018
E-tray Exam Period: 15 October - 19 October 2018
The strict time limit imposed on this test and the vast amounts of information that candidates will need to process super quickly to complete the E-tray Exercise, makes it a very challenging test.
Understanding the logic behind the E-tray Exercise and following strategies to boost efficiency are vital in the preparation of this exam, to maximise your final exam score.
Those EPSO candidates who take the time to understand the right and wrong behaviours for each competency strongly increase their chances of getting a higher score in the E-tray exam.
The good news is we can help you get E-tray ready in record speed. We have pulled all our resources together to give you the best E-tray preparation tools available.
E-tray Exercise Simulations
All of our existing practice E-tray exercises which simulate the actual EPSO E-tray exams, have been fully reviewed and updated to match the changes imposed by EPSO last year. In addition to our existing E-tray simulations, we are currently loading new E-tray Exercises to our database and will continue to do so in the lead up to the e-tray exam period. This means that those who have used our E-tray simulations in the past will have brand new E-tray Exercises to practice with.
E-tray Insights LIVE Webinar
EU Training will be holding two LIVE E-tray webinars in late September/early October where participants can ask all their most pressing questions from our E-tray expert, while accessing helpful insights and vital tips and tricks.
