Hi Iris,
The number of candidates invited to the assessment centre will be approximately three times the number of successful candidates indicated in the competition notice, i.e. 135 candidates (45 x 3) will be invited.

Dear Danijela,
Due to an IT-failure, the communication of the results in the accounts has unfortunately been postponed.
All candidates will hopefully be informed very shortly.

Greetings;
I applied for EPSO/AD/233/12 position, option 2. I can see that you published the number of applications according to the option, but will there be published a number of applications according to the second and the third language?
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,
Nika

Dear Nika,
As the reserve list of successful candidates is not split into different groups according to candidates’ second or third language, we do not publish the requested information.

Dear Natalie,
thank you for the answer. Still, I was wondering how will the selection be made: according to the success on the test only or according to the language combination and the success in the tests?
Thank you in advance,
Nika

Dear Nika,
The selection criterias are mentioned in the Notice of competition, which is legally binding. It is not mentioned that the selection would be according to the candidate’s language combination.

Dear Marie,
I was just wondering why is taking so long to get the results since it is a computer based test?? I tought that the results should come out immidiatley, like, for example, at the preparation tests that we use to practice online- the result is shown immidiatley or after the time is up. So, I was just wondering why is taking so much time for EPSO? Thank you very much!
Sep 05, 2012 @ 10:31:55
Dear Valentina,
This is the usual procedure, since often candidates are arguing on the questions they received during the tests.

Could you give us some information about the language test in Croatian and in 2nd foreign language? What will they look like and where could we find some samples? Thank you very much.
Aug 29, 2012 @ 16:29:54
Dear Adriaan,
Tests (d) and (e) will not be translation tests. It will consist of a linguistic comprehension of a 1 page text (A4), which will be followed by a series of questions (on grammar, vocabulary,…) You will find some sample tests under the chapter ‘Linguists’ at : http://europa.eu/epso/discover/prepa_test/sample_test/index_en.htm
Best regards,
Aug 31, 2012 @ 11:01:17
Thank you for your answer, but the samples on this link are only for translation tests and not for language and comprehension test. Kind regards, Adriaan
Aug 31, 2012 @ 11:45:08
Dear Adriaan,
You can see examples of the new language tests for translators in English, French or German on that page. Please see : http://europa.eu/epso/apply/today/doc/sa-en002t_en.pdf

Dear ESPO,
I correctly applied for TRANSLATORS (AD5) WITH CROATIAN AS THEIR MAIN LANGUAGE (HR). I check my EPS account daily. Will we be informed on our EPSO accounts when the candidates will be tested and where, do you have this information now ?
Thanks in advance
Aug 24, 2012 @ 14:24:26
Dear Ivan,
Yes, each candidate will be informed in the coming weeks via the EPSO Account regarding their booking period.

Dear EPSO,
I found contradictory information regarding the language in which the computer tests for translators with Croatian as their main language will take place. So, are the verbal, numerical and abstract reasoning tests going to be held in English or Croatian?
Many thanks in advance.
Aug 24, 2012 @ 11:35:18
Dear Iva,
They will not be held in Croatian. The language of each test is mentioned in the Notice of competition : http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:C:2012:180A:0005:0009:EN:PDF

Dear madam/sir,
after I’ve been cheking my Epso account regularly, I’ve decided to try to get some information by refering to you this way.
Could you please just tell me if there are any news about Croatian language translators and when can I expect the results to be published?
Thank you in advance.

Dear Anita,
All candidates will be informed in the coming weeks regarding their booking period, which will most likely not start earlier than the 4th of September. The computer-based tests will most likely be organized between Mid-September and Mid-October.

I just noticed that I filled my application in Croatian. How big a problem is that? Can I correct it?
Aug 17, 2012 @ 14:43:54
Dear Suna,
Your application form may unfortunately no longer be modified after its validation.
It was indeed requested from candidates to fill in their application form in either French, English or German, so the Selection Board will have to take a decision about this. This decision will be taken after that the Admission tests took place.
Best regards,

“Deadline for applications for the competitions for administrators (EPSO/AD/233-235/12) was on 24/07/2012″…it says “for administrators” and then it’s talking about translators ???

Hello,
This competition is intended for linguistic administrators with Croatian as their main language, also called “translators”.
