The competition EPSO/AD/423/25 for lawyer-linguists/legal revisers is now reaching its end. As we are using a new IT tool to communicate the results, we will release them gradually to ensure that everything works correctly. Result letters will therefore be published in the Single Candidate Portal accounts in stages, language by language, over the coming weeks. If you have not yet received your results, it may simply be because your language has not been published yet. 

Thank you for your patience — the letters are on their way.

The results of the testing session for Contract staff of 7 May 2026 will be published in the candidate accounts at the end of June 2026.

Due to the exceptionally high number of Requests for Review submitted for Competition EPSO/AD/413/24 (all fields), we wish to inform candidates that processing these requests will take longer than usual.

To ensure our team can work as efficiently as possible, we kindly ask that candidates refrain from contacting the Selection Board, EPSO’s Director, or EPSO staff for individual updates. Doing so will not accelerate the process, as responses will be provided only once all requests have been thoroughly reviewed.

We fully understand the importance of this stage for all candidates and assure you that updates will be published directly in...

We have added the OAT Instructions for online testing on the Prepare for the online tests page.

The guide is available as an English and a French PDF file. This guide is also sent to the candidates when they are invited to the tests.

The EU knowledge test consists of a multiple-choice questionnaire covering the European Union, its institutions, procedures, and main policies. 

References to the sources used to develop this test will be made available on the EPSO website approximately two months before the test date.

More than 170 000 people have applied to the AD5 Graduate competition which closed for applications on 10 March 2026 at 12h00 midday. This number has surpassed all expectations.

If the update is completed in time, the next CAST testing will take place on 31 March as planned. 

The TAO platform used for open competitions is not affected by this update.

A new addendum to the call for expressions of interest has been published on 17 February 2026 and updated on 13 March 2026. 

It is aimed at clarifying the grounds for disqualification.

En række EU-institutioner med personale i Luxembourg har vedtaget en ny foranstaltning for at hjælpe deres personale i Luxembourg med at overkomme høje leveomkostninger. Støtteberettigede EU-ansatte i specifikke lønklasser vil kunne modtage et boligtilskud på op til 500 EUR pr. måned. Denne boligstøtte kan kombineres med boligstøtteforanstaltninger fra den luxembourgske stat. 

En rapport fra Kommissionen fra 2022 fremhævede, at den største forskel mellem Luxembourg og Bruxelles med hensyn til leveomkostninger udgøres af udgifter til bolig, hvilket betyder at boliger i Storhertugdømmet er mindre overkommelige. De EU-institutioner, der er til stede i Luxembourg, nedsatte en interinstitutionel arbejdsgruppe på højt plan for at finde...
