You should know this about Epsos Situational Judgement Tests (SJT)

What are EPSOs Situational Judgement Tests (SJTs)? The Situational Judgement Tests (SJTs) have been introduced in the EPSO CBT to present candidates with scenarios related to the position for which they are applying. The scenarios presented in the tests reflect real-life aspects of the duties of an EU official. The test comprises of 20 questions with 4 possible answers. The candidate is asked to choose from those the Most Effective and Least Effective solution to the stated situation. The test duration is 30 minutes.

 The scoring per question for the EPSO SJT tests goes from 0 to 2. Correctly identifying the Most Effective and the Least Effective answers will bring you each 1 point, neutral statements are marked with 0,5 points while wrong answers opposites to Most Effective and Least Effective receive 0 points.

 Why are SJTs important? Recently, EPSO has decided to make the Situational Judgement Tests eliminatory. Moreover, they account for 50% of the overall preselection mark for Administrators and one third of the preselection mark for Assistants. In this case you need to understand that SJTs should become your first point of focus for the preselection. A high score in this preselection field will increase your chances to be among the candidates invited for Assessment Centre.
