Epso Competitions for DG Comp

Hello everyone, 
I hope everyone is safe and well. 
I am very (very) new on the all EPSO process and was wondering if someone could share views. I have been working as a competition legal counsel for 5 years and was wondering the best way to get in DG Comp. I keep checking on the EU Commission job portal but I still do not really know how this works. 
I have not identified any notice of competition for positions in DG Comp (except economists which is not my field of expertise). 

CAST ICT competency test

Dear all,

I would like to ask you the folling:

do you have experience in CAST ICT "competency test" and would like to share your experience?

Are the eutraining test in line with the EPSO MCQ questions?

Many thanks for your help.

 

Location and language of the computer test

Hi everybody! Thanks for allowing me to share a question here! 

I have already seen more or less related questions in the FAQ, so I am sorry if it does repeat itself; though this is more specific than some I have seen there. 

I am bi-national French and Portuguese. My official residency is in France but I will be spending the next two months in Portugal. I would like to take the computer test in French (Language 1) can I do so in Lisbon? or should I go to Paris specifically to take a French test? 

The Lawyer-Linguists AD competition - what happened?

Hello, you may know that there were several competitions for lawyer-linguists scheduled to be opened on 24 September, but seem to have been postponed because the EPSO site now says they will be released in the "autumn (indicative)".

Anyone have any idea what happened?

INTERREG Project Officer - recuitment test

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!
