The remotely proctored tests require a third party – an external contractor – to take control of your computer while you take the test. Among other things, this prevents candidates from browsing the internet or running applications outside the remit of the tests.

In order to enable online selection tests to run on a corporate computer – including those made available to staff of EPSO’s institutional clients (e.g. the European Commission, the European Parliament, the Council of the EU and others) – multiple security controls would have to be disabled, relaxed or changed by an authorised administrator.

Understandably, corporate stakeholders must ensure that the risks to their digital environment are reduced to a minimum and that’s why candidates can usually not use their corporate PC for the remotely proctored tests.
