Dear EPSO team,
I have been invited to the Assessment phase for the EPSO/AD/235/12 – Croatian-Language (HR) Lawyer-Linguists. In the Notice of Competition it states I should bring a diploma attesting language training. I only have language school certificate which is not a public document and is not entered in my employment certificate. I am wondering if that is enough or if I have to have a certified document?
May 17, 2013 @ 10:55:48
Dear Katarina,
The supporting documents must be official documents. It does not have to be ‘certified’ copies : regular copies (of the originals) are sufficient.
The Selection Board will evaluate if your certificate could be considered as sufficient.
Best regards,

Dear Epso,
I have a question about the verbal reasoning tests: what if there is a spelling or typing error in a text or in any of the statements? Should the statement be considered as incorrect and the piece of the text as void?
Thank you in advance,
Giorgio

Should you notice anything particular during the test, we advise you to write down the number of the question concerned and report it via our contact form at : https://europa.eu/epso/application/passport/webform.cfm?usertype=2&lang=en

Dear Epso Team,
During the schedule-time I am temporarily located in Germany thus I booked my test at a German Assessment Centre though I do not speak German. I wonder whether or not do I have to expect the tests (1st language) in my mother tongue anyway.
Many thanks in advance,
Kind regards,
Alex
Mar 11, 2013 @ 15:15:37
Dear Alex,
You will sit the tests taking into account the language choice indicated in your application. It does not depend on the location of the test centre chosen.
Kind regards,

Dear EPSO Team,
I booked my exam for today at 12.30 in Sesto San Giovanni, but I can’t reach the assesment center as my train has been cancelled (Frecciarossa 9608) and all the other trains from Bologna to Milan have a huge delay. The problem is an electric problem of all the railway. I ‘ve tried to reschedule the exam in my EPSO account but without success as it was permitted latest 48hours before the appointment.
What can I do now? I would like to reschedule the exam because I couldn’t reach the assessment center due to force majeure.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Kind regards,
Serena

Dear Madam/Sir,
I have one question regarding scoring. Sorry if it is a strange question, but I believe it is always better to ask.
On accuracy and precision test we have 40 questions and 6 minutes time. Do we get any points for the questions not answered? I was looking if it is better to spend the last minute randomly answering all remaining questions, instead of doing 3 or 4 more questions. However if we get 1/5 of the point for each question not answered, this strategy does not make any sense.
Also, are there negative points for wrong answers on the accuracy and precision test?
Thank you for the answer.
Feb 26, 2013 @ 16:29:46
Dear Marin,
You will get points only it the answer is correct. There is no negative scoring if the answer is wrong.
There is no score if there is no answer.
Best regards,
Marie – EU Careers
Feb 21, 2013 @ 19:23:09
Dear Epso,
I would like to know something about the entry tests. I do not remember the duration of each test, ie the numerical, reasoning, abstract tests etc.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Regards.
Patrizia
Feb 22, 2013 @ 14:45:26
Dear Patrizia,
Instructions with detailed information are available in the booking letter; the number of questions and timing is indicated. Please make sure to read them carefully.
Regards,
Rosa
Feb 19, 2013 @ 08:50:24
I have a general comment too regarding applications.
Why is it necessary to always reintroduce all our educational and professional info for each new application.
That’s time consuming , while we could only update the data’s if needed?
Feb 19, 2013 @ 15:54:01
Dear candidate,
Each competition or selection procedure is separated.
Indeed, a new application form is therefore needed.
Best regards,
Marie – EU Careers
Feb 20, 2013 @ 06:41:49
Unfortunately, Marie’s / EPSO’s reply did not take any consideration of Sophie’s comment but merely confirmed the current situation.
I (and I believe many other candidates as well) would be interested to know WHY is necessary to always copy & paste already existing (CV) information in your database to a new application? This cannot be a technical reason – so why isn’t it possible to re-use and simply update entered information for a new competition? Maybe I / we are simply overlooking something. Would you therefore be able to provide further insight?
The public would certainly much appreciate a reply.
Feb 20, 2013 @ 09:05:08
Dear Jacob,
I can only confirm that this feature is currently not available and that we are working on an improved system including the requested feature.
We will keep candidates updated as soon as we have further news.
Kind regards,
Nathalie
Feb 19, 2013 @ 08:46:55
It is impossible to reschedule an appointment. There is always the same error message!

Confirmation/Tracking Number and First 4 Letters of Last Name
the message below appeared on the screen.

Bonjour:
J’ai trouvé quelques problèmes avec la procédure de réservation en ligne parce que la langue qui apparaît dans mon écran est l’anglais, pas le français ni l’espagnol (ma langue d’origine). Est-ce qu’il a quelque chose qui ne marche pas, ou je dois remplir le formulaire de réservation en anglais? En plus, il offre comme lieux d’examen GO ENGLISH ¿? et moi, j’avais enregistré comme deuxième langue le français, cela peut être une erreur? merci d’avant,
Feb 14, 2013 @ 17:54:25
