The Ultimate EU Test Book, Administrator (AD) Edition 2015

Autor András BANETH
en Limba Engleză Paperback – dec 2014
The Ultimate EU Test Book – Administrator (AD) Edition 2015 is designed specifically for those preparing for AD-level European Personnel Selection Office (EPSO) competitions for jobs in the EU institutions. The Administrator Edition 2015 is relevant for all AD5-AD 9, Linguist, and AD Specialist exams. (Note: A separate edition is available for Assistant exams.) The revised 2015 edition focuses particularly on the so-called pre-selection tests as this is where the great majority of candidates fail – in many cases because of lack of proper preparation. The book includes chapters on the skills and techniques involved in tackling verbal, numerical and abstract reasoning questions, with comprehensive practice exercises designed to simulate AD-level competitions. Multiple choice questions are accompanied by detailed answer explanations to enable you to understand your mistakes and improve your speed and accuracy. The book also explains what situational judgement tests involve, with practice scenarios. Other chapters describe the EPSO exam process from start to finish and explain the competencies tested and exercises faced by those who win through to the Assessment Centre. Used by thousands of candidates every year, The Ultimate EU Test Book is an absolute must in preparing for your EPSO exams.
