Third stage of the selection process for Secretary AST: situational test or assessment centre?

Hello everyone, 

I know this is a long shot since the second phase of the selection process for Secretaries is still undergoing but I just wanted to know if the third stage will entail an assessment centre or a situational test?

The reason why I am asking is because the notice of competition just mentions assessment centre still while a decision was taken afterwards to replace the assessment centre with a situational test due to covid restrictions.

Can anyone shed some light?

Regards,

Claudio 

EU rmeote working options

Hello everyone! As I am thinking of applying for a AD or linguist position in the next months/years, it would be great to now how the EU deals with remote working. In case of a full-time position, how many days per week would it be possible to work remotely? Or, more broadly, which flexible working models are possible in the context of EU institutions? Unfortunately, I have not found any information regarding this aspect so far. Thanks, Barbara

Changing positions between EU institutions?

Hi, I have started working for EU institution 1 year ago and I am trying to inform myself on how to change EU institution or agency. Aparently it should be very easy and you can go from Contract Agent to Temporary Agent. But what I don`t understand is if there needs to be some job posting somewhere, is there some kind of internal web site for EU employees or something. Or do I have to go through the process from begining.

Thank you,

 

AD 6 Project Manager - EUIPO

Hi everyone ! 

has any of you applied for the position of Project Manager at EUIPO? If so, have they shared any news regarding the selection process? The selection process might be more lengthy because it is meant for different positions with a Reserve list of 50 people. 

Thanks in advance

Hi, 

I'm practising for the Word test with EU training and there is only one type of question with one correct answer.

allowances - are they for every FG?

Hi,
Is an employee with a CAST FG I contract also entitled to all allowances (Dependent child allowance, Expatriation allowance, etc.) - if he meets the criteria for obtaining these allowances (moves from another country to another country, has dependent children, etc.)? Is that so?
