Reserve Lists

Good morning all,

In the last AD specialist competitions,I noted that the number of applicants will form the reserve lists is quite generous (hundreds of ppl).

If I well understood, the list are valid for 3 years. Do you know if normally in the 3 years they go through all the list or if the number are overestimated?

Once you are in the reserve list, they will call you or you have to propose yourself in the available positions for your profile?

Thank foe the support,

AD Specialist - Tests

Good morning all,

I am approaching to participate to AD specialist competition for the first time. In the competitions of financial related positions, the period to do the test is one day only. I have the following questions:

- booking period: in the timeframe indicated I have just to confirm that I want to do the tests in the solely test day available? I have to book a precise window or I can do the test when is more feasible for me in that day?

Brand new position official

Hi everyone, 

I succeed in an ast/sc postion to be official at the EP.

I am waiting for the documents of DG PERS and I was wondering how is the integration for newbies? 

What are the next steps? Do they help us to find a flat? How long we have to wait for the first pay? Do we have some possibilities to have bank loan?

I have looked for some informations but I didn't find anything about it...

Thanks very much for the feed back!

Tests for Economics competition AD/402/23

Hi everybody,

 

EPSO released the dates for the Testing period, ranging from 1 day (3 or 4.10) for fields 2 and 3, to 3 days (2-4.10) for field 1.

Does this means that all the 3 tests (computer-based, case study and field-related) are to be done in only one day?

 

Thank you and good luck to all!

Verbal Reasoning Tests

Hello,

I would like to ask two questions about verbal reasoning?

1) Do you think it breaks the rules to use the Ctrl + F option to find a specific word in the verbal reasoning text?

2) The verbal reasoning test has 20 questions. Does every single question refer to a unique text or are we given a text where 4-5 questions refer to each time?

Many thanks
