Competiton to FRONTEX

Hello everybody. I was invited to the Entry Online Written Test for the post in FRONTEX. Could you share your experience on this matter? Are there any tests available on the EU Training Web? If so, how to find them. Any suggestions are welcomed.

 

COMPETITION PE/AD/299/2023/TRAD

Hello,

do you have any suggestion on how to prepare for the MCQ pre-selection test for this competition for translators in the EP?

I thought the test was about questions on EU and EP but it looks to be much closer to verbal reasoning test. Any advice?

Thank you in advance.

Blue Book - assessing my odds

Hi,

about one month ago I submitted my application to the Oct session of the Blue Book. The deadline was last week so the preselection results will only come out around late April at the earliest. I am a bit impatient since I'm currently stuck in a job I don't like, but I also want to be realistic.

Language of supporting documents

I am assuming that supporting documents for the applications can be submitted in any official EU language? They are not explicit about this in the request, and I don't seem to be able to find a direct answer, but this would make sense to me. If they had to be translated I assume they would state this. But with EPSO anything is possible, so I am checking here what is the consensus on this point?

LOGISTIC SERVICE COORDINATORS PE/AST/287/2023/INLO AST 1

Pre-Selections and CAST selection for Translators

Good morning everyone,

More than one week ago I've submitted my application for the next CAST selection that will take place on the 13th/14th of March (computer-based test); this is the period to book the exam (4th/7th March) but I still wait to know if I've been pre-selected or not. Do you know how long should I wait? 

If you pass the reasoning test but not the rest, do you have to retake it for every competition?

Hello,

I was wondering if one's passed the reasoning test for one competiton (let's say for an AD6 permanent position) but failed the rest and then apply for one AD5 competition, does them have to retake the full test or EPSO will let them skip the reasoning test part? Some time back I read that you could keep the result of the reasoning test for a while, but I wonder if now that they test everything on the same day you have to retake each part anyway. 
If anybody knows about this it would be great! Thanks

CAST and possibility to work for Commission

Hi everyone,

if somebody has done 6 years in the Commission (as CA and TA), is there a possibility to work again in any of the DGs or the Cabinets when they pass a CAST test? Is there anyone who is knowledgeable and can answer this question?

Thanks for the input!

 

 

Problem with EPSO account

Hallo everyone!

It seems that there is a major problem when trying to access my account in EPSO. 

There is an error message when trying to see the vacancy list. 

Everything else is visible (e.g. profile, contact details, uploading CV etc). 

Has anyone faced the same issue? 

I 've sent an email to EPSO, however I did not get an aswer.
