EPSO COMPETITIONS

Hi,

Hi! I have landed two separate interviews through CAST. Yet, I have not managed to convert them into a contract.

Both interviews are with the same DG I have worked (traineeship).

During the interview it seems that I freeze and struggle quite a lot, even though I have made a comprehensive research and preparation.

Hello,
For the new AD competitions, EPSO releases the materials for the written test, but the assignment will be provided only on the day of the competition. Does anyone know if it is possible to find out which assignments were given in previous competitions?
 

For the Eutraining team: it would be great if you kept track of it and could release a list for us...

Thanks everybody!

Hello,

During the prerequisite test, while using a single screen with a separate (not built-in) camera, can you move the camera to show your environment?

In the demo, we only see a guy with a laptop but I wonder what is the safest way to perform the pre-test check with a large screen and a non built-in camera.

Thank you

Dear Members,

Where can I find information about the written assignment (e.g. a briefing, letter or note) for the internal competition COM/AD6/100/2024?

I refer to samples and evaluation methods.

Thank you.

Hello all, when should we expect to learn the results from the translator competition of the past week ?

Does anyone know how many candidates applied ?

Thanks for your replies.

Hello everyone,

The Notice of Competition for AD Permanent Official type of positions is pretty clear on the selection process, until the establishment of the reserve list. However, I am unclear on the next steps if/when placed on the reserve list.

Could you please clarify? Is it as simple as "wait for a job offer", or being placed on such a reserve list just triggers another process with perhaps interview(s), etc.?

Thanks for the help!

Hi everyone, 

does anyone have any advice about an upcoming competition for building specialists AD7?

Thanks

In the AD5 translation test, what if there's a word I simply don't know? I can't use dictionaries of any kind, online or in print.

I've been translating in the private sector for twenty years, but every day I still learn a new word or two. So it's entirely possible this will happen. Is there a protocol, and if so, what is it?

TIA,

Colin

Hello, it's not clear to me whether we need to upload the language certificates by April 10 in order to prove we meet the minimum required level for L2 and L3. This being a competition for translators, aren't successful candidates clearly good enough with languages?

Thanks, davide
