Explanation of open competition
According to the web site of the European Personnel Selection Office, whose mission is to organise and administer open competitions to select staff for recruitment to all institutions of the EU, all permanent staff for the EU institutions are recruited through open competitions (commonly referred to as concours in all languages, originally referring to the French public administration's recruitment exams).Number of applicants
These attract a very considerable number of applicants from all over Europe.Permanent positions
Passing the competition is the principal way to become a permanent official in an EU institution. Other smaller competitions may provide an entry route to the select few.Temporary positions
Regarding non-permanent jobs like temporary agents, a similar selection takes place.Open competitions
EU open competitions are published in the C series of the Official Journal (OJ) of the European Union.Specific conditions
The OJ gives the specific conditions and requirements for each published competition, along with an indication of the number of posts available.A third level diploma is normally required, and EU citizenship. Candidates must have at least two EU languages: both a 'main language', which can be any of the 24 EU languages, and a 'second language', which must be English, German, or French. The concours tests both languages.There are usually 3 stages to each competition.- Pre-selection Tests
- Written Tests
- Interview
- EU knowledge- extensive subject matter knowledge can be required
- Verbal reasoning
- Numerical reasoning
- Specific knowledge related to the particular field of the competition applied for (e.g.: scientific/ human resources/ law etc.)
Positions available
The number of positions is not communicated. Only the number of places on the reserve list is always stated in the notice of competition.Reserve list
This number indicates how many successful candidates will be placed on the reserve list, however, it does not guarantee that all of them will actually get a job.Successful applicants who withdraw
Many candidates change their minds throughout the application process, so positions that appear to be filled sometimes become available.See also
