Usually all the good things come to an end. The same happens here with me, in this forum. I met very interesting people from various countries, I dreamed with them and in some cases I made some strong friendships. However, the ambition was to succeed into the EU exams and after about 2 and a half years of efforts, I must admit, I failed. I'm not a young boy to try and try again, to learn from my mistakes, to get experiences. I could refer to many reasons and things that I believe EPSO is a very beaurocratic, bad organized and not transparent institution but instead of fighting a monster I prefer to do other things more useful. I would like to thank you all for your participation, your contribution, your assistance in many cases and let's just hope that we will be alive to see one day a Europe as we dream of... Unfortunately, today's construction is so ugly...
Goodbye to all

Dktenid, wait just a bit more until you see the results of the test. Even if then you see that you didn't pass, the biggest success of your efforts will be the one that you mention, the participation in this online community of people. People who are taking part in a competition but still cooperating and sharing with each other. This is something to be proud of, and this is how a different vision of Europe will become a reality.
As far as the epso exams, me, i am giving myself and them :) another chance with the upcoming OLAF exams, and the ones for AST.

Hey Dktenid,

It is not a question of age or life experience, but only a question of what you want.

Let me give you 2 different experiences:

One is a woman I heard of who was called for enrollment 13 years after having succeeded a european competition :shock: It means, even if you succeed, it is no warranty to get in. That's why, if you feel it another way, do it!

The other one is a man I personally know who tried no less than 5 times an EPSO competition and who has finally been acting as an Admin for a couple of years now...

Just think about it :wink:

Your fab

Hope and no action is useless. The Greeks have an expression: Syn Athina kai xeira kinei. Help God, so God would help you.

Take the advice of the other colleagues and do yourself a favour. see the glass half-full and not half-empty. Nevertheless, great men are great because they prevail in the time of austerity.
:D
