Worldwide testing
• 78 test centres across all continents
• Incl. 37 test centres outside (212 candidates to test outside the EU)
EU Careers AD 2011 media campaignThe media and publicity campaign for the 2011 AD selection procedure is a much more complex, targeted campaign than that used in 2010.
Key changes:
•Different approaches in different countries. Based on the evidence of priorities of graduates in focus countries. Different texts emphasising key areas of the EVP.
•Now catering to two markets- final year students/recent graduates and those with 6/7+ years of experience.
•Use of landing pages allows for ‘in-campaign adaptation’ of adverts to focus on elements of the EVP which are proving more attractive.
•Facebook ‘teaser’ campaign to attract candidates in advance of the 16th March registration opening date.
Landing pages
• Piloted for 2010 AST selection procedure.
Allow us to:
• Measure success/value for money of adverts.• Adapt unsuccessful adverts during the campaign.• Test new website content for eventual use on www.eu-careers.eu
Also…
- Free postings on blogs and job boards
Podcasts and webcasts:
http://scic.ec.europa.eu/str/index.php?sessionno=ee26fc66b1369c7625333bedafbfcaf6
-Press coverage : Press releases, lobbying for articles, launch event.
-EU Careers Ambassadors working to set up events, interview, radio station coverage, etc.
2011Strategic goals 2011:
- To successfully deliver the first full cycle of the new selection procedures and to continue with the next cycle;
- To analyse and evaluate the outcome of the first cycle and make anynecessary improvements in 2011-2012;
- To further develop and internalise EPSO's expertise and competence in the field of competency-based selection, employer branding, psychometrics and other areas integral to its mission;
- To propose and introduce progressive and forward-looking improvements to the selection process on a continuous basis.

• 4 topics:– Finding the right candidates– Speed– eRL– EDP
The survey: focus groups• 2 sessions of 2 hours on 28 September 2010
– morning session with 9 line managers
– afternoon session with 15 HRR
• 5 topics:– Selecting the right candidates– EPSO support in defining selection needs– Disseminating information about the new selection
processes– Participants’ priorities for EPSO
Key findings: finding the right candidates
• Reorder tests at pre-selection (cognitive reasoning insufficient in identifying right profile)
• Pre-select based on practical professional experience
• Conduct practical testing of skills required for particular posts (e.g. secretarial and computer skills for AST roles)
Key findings: filling a position
When you need to fill a vacancy, how often do you find the right candidate on an EPSO reserve list?SCALE: Always: 5 Mostly: 4 Sometimes: 3 Rarely: 2 Never: 1

• Modest expectations of EDP, especially from the linguistic services
• Most important areas to improve:
– Speed of selection process
– Reduction of waiting time for laureates on reserve lists
– Assessment of behavioural characteristics and on the job competencies
– Provision of reports on candidates’ performance
Based on your current understanding, to what extent do you consider that the development programme will enable EPSO to better serve your recruitment needs?SCALE: Quantum change: 5 Very significant improvement: 4 Significant improvement: 3 Minor improvement: 2 No change: 1

Possible next steps• Feed findings into EPSO’s vision and mission
• Publish KPI, with a view to improving performance at interinstitutional level (e.g. shortening the time between selection and recruitment)
• Strengthen dialogue with users (e.g. e-RL users panel)
