From reserve list placement forward, timeline?

Hey,

I recently applied for a job at a EU agency and got all the way through tests and interview to the reserve list. I had to submit all kinds of backgroun docs on my education, professional experience, CoI forms etc.  After they notified that I was "succesfully" placed on list, the manager wanted to have an additional chat about the job etc. 

Since then I haven´t heard anything, it´s been several days. Does it usually take a long time before they decide if I´ll get the offer or not? I would need to know quite soon whatever the case is.

Hello, I see in the sample video of the competition, in the EPSO website, that you can only use 22 characters in the calculator.

Is this the case then?? 22 characters xD??

CBTs running order

Hi everyone, 

I’m wondering about the order of sections in the CBT test. Is it always 1-verbal section , 2- numerical section and the last one is 3-abstract section, in this sequence? Or could it vary depending on the competition you’re applying for?

Thanks a lot! ;)

Question regarding Written test (WT)

Hi all,

This might sound a bit obvious but I am finding mix information depending on the source.

I am currently practising the Written Test for my exam and I found that, when loading the exam, all the documentation appears ont he left margin, available for us to check.

Will that be the case for the EPSO exam? Will we be allowed to look into the official documentation?

Than you and regards. Good luck!

difficulty of the exercises depending on the language

Hi everyone,

I'm preparing the AD5 competition and I've noticed that depending on the language (I switch from Spanish to French or English), the difficulty of the exercise is different. I'm talking about verbal and numerical (abstract doesn't change). The easiest ones are in English, mainly the numerical ones, but verbal as well. The trickiest ones are the numerical in Spanish (with equations and 3 different calculations to perform). Did you notice this in your mother tongue as well? thks

Recruitment From Reserve Lists - Supporting Documents

Hello everyone,

I've got a question regarding the documents requested once you finally manage to get an offer as a successful laureate on a reserve list.

During the competition process, you should have already at some point uploaded all the necessary documents, which are validated before the announcement of the competition's results.

COM/1/2015/GFIV — Research

Hi,

I recently failed the FGIV reasoning tests for the CAST-P selection procedure. Does anyone know, please, if I can I still be called to the CAST tests if I apply to the JRC's specialized Call for Expression of Interest (Researchers - Function group IV - COM/1/2015/GFIV – Research)? Or this profile falls under the other EPSO CAST-P rules (not being able to sit the test for 6 months)?

Thank you!
