INTERREG Project Officer - recuitment test

Hi All,

I have been invited to the test within the recruitment process for INTERREG as Project Officer. I would like to know whether anyone has any info to share about what to expect from the 3 hours Test. Any information would be appreciated and helpful.

INTERIM

Hi! I am a successful applicant (interim) in a European Agency by an outsourced company (temporary staffing). I was selected through interview. Does anyone know for how long is the list of the successful applicants valid? I wonder If you have a job offer for the interim contract but can not commit to start work at that time, can you remain on the list and have a second chance to be called?

 

Thanks

Numerical reasoning test

I wonder if you can take notes in a pice of paper while taking your numerical reasoning test. It will really help.

Also, can you have a physical calculator or only the one given on your screen?

 

 

How did you perform in the IT Specialists CBT

Those who have completed their computer based tests in the IT Specialists competition (cloud, data science, hpc, etc) could share with others what they thought of the tests, difficulty in each field, how they performed, etc. in this thread.

AST-SC1

Hello everyone! Do you know when are going to be available the exam dates for AST-SC1? Thank you!!

Internal positions

I have seen that - at least for special competitions, if you are selected you "just" get an offer for 4 years. After those 4 years are normally people leaving and need to find another job out of EU or is it "easy" once you are inside to get other positions within EU?

Thx!

IT Specialist Competition

What happens when not enough participants get the minimum marks to pass the tests? (verbal / reasoning - specially this one / numerical)

Thx! :-)

Study material for field related test in European law

Hi! 

I'm planning to do the AD5 European Law Competetion and there will be a field-related multiple choice test in the second step.

Can you recommend a book to read in order to prepare for the questions?

Kind regards,

Franziska Pupeter

 

Preselection for CAST

Hi! I have 2 questions:

1. How are you supposed to know that you have been preselected before the opening window to register: the time between registration and the actual exam is very short for preparation.

2. How do you know which unit / recruiter that is interested in your application?

Tks

 
 
 

Eligibility of benefits for different profiles - permanent, CAST, Temporary Agent

I have heard, that one of the benefits of working for an institution of the EU is that your childrens (very expensive!) school fees at one of the international schools in Brussels will be paid for.  Not having this benefit would be a prohibitive factor for me moving to Brussels at all and attempting my luck in the CAST calls or applying for positions as a temporary agent, so I hope one of you can help me figuring this out:  Does this benefit regarding paid school fees for employee's children only apply to temporary agents or also to contract agents and temporary agents?
