New - Upcoming selection of temporary agents - Croatian mother tongue

Introduction

The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) generally recruits staff through open competitions or selections. These are organised at inter-institutional level, by the European Personnel Selection Office (EPSO).  EPSO can be contacted at the following number : +32-2-299.31.31 or via its website http://europa.eu/epso.

Vacancies which are published internally by the EESC or at inter-institutional level are intended for permanent officials who are already working at the EESC or in the other institutions and for the successful candidates from an open competition.
Sometimes the EESC employs non permanent staff, under the contract or temporary agent scheme.

This is particularly the case when a staff member is absent due to long-term illness or leave on personal grounds or maternity leave, when a department has to carry out a specific task in addition to its usual work or when a post is waiting to be filled. In any event, such contracts are for a limited period.

Applicants for such non permanent contracts must be from one of the EU's 27 Member States. They must have a thorough knowledge of one of the EU's official languages and a satisfactory knowledge of at least one other of these languages.  They are selected from the "eRL-CAST" database managed by EPSO, containing CVs of applicants who have passed an EPSO organised selection.  Applications from persons who have not participated to any particular selection are not totally excluded, although the probability of seeing their application considered for a non permanent contract is reduced. 

If you are interested and wish to apply for such a contract, whether or not you are a successful candidate of an open competition or EPSO "CAST" selection, you can register your profile in our new "on-line" unsolicited and spontaneous application database.   You will find hereafter a few useful recommendations and the link to the online registration form.
