AD groups (streams) vs FG groups, differneces and options?

Hi, I have a question reagrding AD vs FG groups. I understand that they are different streams but to me it looks like for example for my position that AD would have much higher salary. The jobs posted in AD stream for someone like me are areound AD 7 and 8 while in FG I can get maximum FG IV.

The question is if I get the oportunity to work for in FG IV, should I accept it since I am not going to get salary that would be higher then I am having now, or should I wait for AD 7 & 8 positions?

Childcare Staff

Dear all,

 

I just passed the selection tests for EPSO/CAST/P/19/2018 (Child care staff) and I've been told that I will be contacted directly by the recruiting services for the next phase of the selection procedure. I would thus like to ask whether anyone is familiar with the type of tests I will be called to take for the next phase (interview, case study etc.) and whether there is any book I could consult in order to help me prepare?

 

Thank you very much!!!

Croatian Lawyer-Linguist - Upcoming

Hi everyone!  I want to prepare for the upcoming Croatian Lawyer Linguist competition. Are there any Lawyer Linguists out there who might have some tips on what to expect from translations, or have some past papers, other practical tips, etc.? Also, from your experience, does the full package book (600 questions and translations) + classroom training that "EU Training" offer, usually sufficient for a successful candidate competing for a linguist lawyer? How long it takes on average to prepare?

Thanks in advance.

FGIII essential selection criteria

Hi everybody, 

I have a question concerning FGIII selection criteria.

I’ve read in a FGIII vacancy notice that “Proven experience of at least 3 years in the field of finance, budget and procurement” is required as essential criteria of selection.

My question is: is this referred only to professional experience or it includes academic experience too?

If I have a Master’s degree in accounting and finance, could it be considered as experience?

Thank you!!

 

 

CAST project management interview -questions

Hi! Regarding the interview for CAST-PM, does anyone know whether it includes general knowledge questions, on the EU institutions, history of the EU etc? Do they also ask anything on programme management? Or is it a typical interview on your CV, skills and motivation alone? Thank you.

EPSO AD5 365/19 Administrators in Legal Research Competition

I would like to ask whether anyone has a more clear idea on the topic of the note that we are asked to write in Preliminary test. The notice of competition mentions: 'a note based on an area of European Union law and analyse legal issues relating in particular to the national law of the competition'. But this does not give any hint! And also, does anyone know if the topic of the note we are asked to write will be personalised to the country we are in? I guess yes. Any thought on Cyprus law?
