EPSO COMPETITIONS

Hey everyone,

 

so when I was on holiday 3 years ago I was drunk and had a little alteration with a police officer. Nobody was harmed but I was sentenced to 7 months on probabtion for resisiting officer and apparently "trying" to attack one-  again noone was harmed and I was as drunk as it gets.

I went to a an Ivy league top school in the US (Yale University) and read Economics with a top 3.8/4 GPA and worked in the Central bank for 1 year.

My question is the following:

Hello,

I would like to know if anybody here once had the case that they got a written job offer, but then it was withdrawn?

I am on a reserve list only valid for 2 institutions and for a very specific profile. A few weeks ago I had an interview and received via email the job offer. I was asked to confirm my starting date and the insitution also confirmed. As I had a written offer, confirmation of starting date, the right institution wanted to recruit me and for the right profile, I resigned from my current job.

Oral Briefing

I am taking part in the internal competition, and they have asked for an oral briefing (20' to prepare, 8' to present, 5' Q&A).

Anyone has some idea what oral briefing entails, or is different from a standard presentation of a topic?

Anyone knows more about this type of expression of interest call: COM/4/2019/AD?

Hello everyone,

I have spotted this expression of interest call for Cabinet staff - policy officers and members of cabinets. With the new EC coming into place soon, this is quite interesting.

We can apply by using the EU CV online system - but do you have experience having used this system and what are the next steps if selected? It seems to me that the post is an AD one for EoI call.

thanks for your help!

CAST Project management - FG IV - Practice Packages and information

Dear All,

I am preparing for a CAST project management CTB test for FG IV. EU training proposes special packages for these tests, which look very useful.

Could you perhaps advise me on what the different is with the AD5 packages available? Any users who have purchased such packages for CAST project management, could you let me know how effective have they been to you?

Many thanks for your help!
