Profile 1 — Digital monitoring officers and open source intelligence specialists (AST 3)

Profile 2 — Prevention and surveillance coordinators (AST 3)

2014/C 108 A/01

The European Personnel Selection Office (EPSO) is organising an open competition, based on qualifications and tests, to constitute a reserve from which to recruit assistants (1).

The purpose of this competition is to draw up reserve lists from which to fill vacant posts for officials in the European Union institutions, specifically in the European Parliament and the European External Action Service (EEAS).

Before applying, you should carefully read the General Rules governing open competitions published in Official Journal of the European Union C 60 A of 1 March 2014 and on the EPSO website.

This document is an integral part of the competition notice and will help you to understand the rules governing the procedure and how to apply.

2.1.

Qualifications/diplomas and professional experience

See Annex

2.2.

Knowledge of languages
   (2)

Language 1

Main language

A thorough knowledge of one of the official languages of the European Union.

Language 2

Second language (must be different from language 1)

A satisfactory knowledge of English, French or German.

Recruitment to the security service of the European Parliament in Luxembourg requires a good understanding of both written and spoken French, as this is essential both for the purposes of the work and in dealing with outside parties. Successful candidates for profile 2 will mainly be recruited to the European Parliament.

Successful candidates for profile 1 will be recruited solely to the European External Action Service.

In the light of the judgment given by the Court of Justice of the European Union (Grand Chamber) in Case C-566/10 P, Italy v Commission, the EU institutions set out below the reasons for limiting the choice of the second language in this competition to a small number of official EU languages.

The second language options in this competition have been defined in line with the interests of the service, which require new recruits to be immediately operational and capable of communicating effectively in their daily work. Otherwise the efficient functioning of the institutions could be severely impaired.

It has long been the practice to use mainly English, French and German for internal communication in the EU institutions and these are also the languages most often needed when communicating with the outside world and dealing with cases. Moreover, English, French and German are the most common second languages in the European Union and the most widely studied as a second language. This confirms what is currently expected of candidates for European Union posts in terms of their level of education and professional skills, namely that they have a command of at least one of these languages. Consequently, in balancing the interests of the service and the abilities of candidates, and given the particular field of this competition, it is legitimate to organise tests in these three languages so as to ensure that all candidates are able to work in at least one of them, whatever their first official language. Assessing specific competencies in this way allows the institutions to evaluate candidates’ ability to be immediately operational in an environment that closely matches the reality they would face on the job.

For these same reasons, it is reasonable to limit the language of communication between candidates and the institution, including the language in which applications are to be drafted. Furthermore, this ensures uniformity when comparing candidates and checking their application forms.

To ensure equal treatment for all candidates, everyone — including those whose first official language is one of the three — must take some tests in their second language, chosen from among these three.

None of this affects the possibility of later language training to enable staff to work in a third language, as required under Article 45(2) of the Staff Regulations.

IV.   ADMISSION TESTS

The admission tests are organised by EPSO and you will take them on a computer. The selection board decides on the difficulty of the tests and approves their subject matter on the basis of proposals made by EPSO.

These computer-based admission tests will be organised only if the number of candidates exceeds a certain threshold. The threshold will be determined by the Director of EPSO, as the appointing authority, after the deadline for applications. The threshold may not be the same for both profiles and you will be informed of the precise details via your EPSO account.

If admission tests are not held, your reasoning ability will be tested at the assessment centre (see Section VI.2).

V.   ADMISSION TO THE COMPETITION AND SELECTION BASED ON QUALIFICATIONS

1.   Procedure

Initially, the information given in your online application will be checked for compliance with the general and specific conditions and will be used for the selection based on qualifications.

| (a) | Your answers to the questions concerning the general and specific conditions will be processed to determine whether you can be included in the list of candidates who fulfil all the conditions for admission to the competition.

  If prior admission tests are organised, compliance with the general and specific conditions for each profile will be checked in descending order of the marks obtained, until the number of candidates who:







  — | have passed the admission tests with the highest marks, and |
| --- | --- | --- |

(a)

Your answers to the questions concerning the general and specific conditions will be processed to determine whether you can be included in the list of candidates who fulfil all the conditions for admission to the competition.

—

have passed the admission tests with the highest marks, and

| — | satisfy the eligibility conditions |
| --- | --- |

—

satisfy the eligibility conditions

reaches the threshold defined by the appointing authority

   (3).

| (b) | The selection board will then screen the candidates eligible for the competition on the basis of their qualifications to identify those whose profile (particularly their diplomas and professional experience) best matches the duties and selection criteria set out in this competition notice. Selection is carried out solely on the basis of the information given in the ‘Talent Screener’ tab, using the following marking scheme:






  — | each selection criterion is weighted between 1 and 3, according to how important the board considers it to be, |
| --- | --- | --- |

(b)

The selection board will then screen the candidates eligible for the competition on the basis of their qualifications to identify those whose profile (particularly their diplomas and professional experience) best matches the duties and selection criteria set out in this competition notice. Selection is carried out solely on the basis of the information given in the ‘Talent Screener’ tab, using the following marking scheme:

—

each selection criterion is weighted between 1 and 3, according to how important the board considers it to be,

| — | the selection board then examines candidates’ answers and awards 0 to 4 points for each answer, according to their qualifications. The points are then multiplied by the weighting for each question and added together to give an overall score. |
| --- | --- |

—

the selection board then examines candidates’ answers and awards 0 to 4 points for each answer, according to their qualifications. The points are then multiplied by the weighting for each question and added together to give an overall score.

The selection board will then draw up a list of candidates in the order of the overall scores awarded. For each field, the number of candidates invited to the assessment centre (4) will not exceed three times the number of successful candidates sought. This number will be published on EPSO’s website (http://blogs.ec.europa.eu/eu-careers.info/).

2.   Verification of information given by candidates

Following the assessment centre tests, and in the light of the results, the information given by candidates in their online applications will be verified against the supporting documents they have provided; this will be done by EPSO for the general conditions, and by the selection board for the specific conditions. In assessing qualifications, supporting documents will be taken into account only to confirm the information already given in the ‘Talent Screener’ tab. If verification shows that the information given is not borne out by the appropriate supporting documents (5), candidates will be disqualified.

The applications of candidates who have passed tests (d), (e), (f) and (g) with the highest aggregate marks will be verified in descending order of merit (see Section VI.2). Those candidates must also have passed tests (a), (b) and (c), where applicable. Verification will continue until the number of places on the reserve list is filled by candidates who are actually eligible. The files of candidates below the threshold will not be examined.
