EU Recruitment Reform - EPSO's System from 2010. The structure and content of EU exams, including a pre-selection phase with verbal & numerical reasoning, phone-book-like EU tests, a written exam with an essay or a dossier task, followed by an oral exam have not changed much over the years. Under the leadership of the new director, with the Court of Auditors’ remarks in mind, EPSO launched a reform of EU exams through the “EPSO Development Plan”. EU Training is closely following the news about the upcoming changes, and we now share with you what you can expect from 2010 onwards.
