If you work for an EU institution that uses SYSPER, the SYSPER eCV button will redirect you to SYSPER to be able to copy and paste information, but it does not allow for an automatic data transfer into your CV in the Single Candidate Portal. You will have to copy and paste information manually.
Below you can find the answer to your question. If you are searching in your language and you are not getting any results, please try in English. The content may not yet be translated.
Can I upload data from SYSPER to my CV in the Single Candidate Portal?
Single Candidate Portal/EU Login
I have a temporary contract with the EU institutions. Can I transfer the data from my internal profile in the Single Candidate Portal to a new external one?
Single Candidate Portal/EU Login
No. It is impossible to transfer the data from one profile to another. If you have a temporary contract and wish to apply through an external account, you will need to create a new account and re-enter your data manually.
I already work for the EU institutions. Should I apply with my internal EU LOGIN?
Single Candidate Portal/EU Login
- You have a permanent contract as an EU official: you must use your current corporate (internal) EU LOGIN for your application via the Single Candidate Portal.
- You have a temporary contract as EU staff: you must create a new EU LOGIN, using a private e-mail address. Important: you must also use a personal computer device, otherwise, your professional computer device will use your corporate (internal) EU LOGIN by default.
How can I create an EU Login account?
Single Candidate Portal/EU Login
At the bottom of How to create an EU LOGIN account page, you will find useful information for candidates about their EU Login account. For further information please also check the EU Login Help page.

Can I take the online tests from anywhere in the world?
Tests
Candidates can take the tests from anywhere in the world as long as the environment requirements as laid out in the instructions for online testing are fulfilled.
Please note that the timing of the tests cannot be modified, so candidates in other time zones might have to take the tests during the night.
Candidates in other time zones also have to make sure that their computer’s date and time settings match their current time zone in order for the TestWe application to show the correct timing of the tests.
Can I still modify the languages in which I will take the online tests?
Tests
Once the deadline for applications has passed, the application form can no longer be amended. This also applies to the choice of languages.
For this reason, candidates should read the Notice of Competition thoroughly and think carefully about which languages they choose.
In which language should I fill out my application?
Translators
The application can be filled out in any of the 24 official EU languages.
Do I have to relocate to Brussels or Luxembourg to work as a translator?
Translators
Officials recruited to work for the EU Institutions must relocate to their place of employment. Permanent telework from outside the place of employment is not allowed. Telework from home is granted based on the needs of the service.
Will candidates be allowed to use dictionaries during the tests?
Translators
Candidates will not be allowed to use paper or online dictionaries during testing. The language-related tests for this competition have been duly adapted to take this into account.
