The European Commission is organising an internal competition to appoint AST3 Assistants with Cypriot, Czech, Estonian, Hungarian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Slovak or Slovenian citizenship.

Please see the Notice of internal competition in question (Annex 1), published in accordance with Article 1(3) of Annex III to the Staff Regulations.

Candidates should register on line by means of the link below. The closing date for applications is 30 December 2008, with a deadline of 12.00 noon Brussels time.

The Commission is also publishing three other Administrative Notices relating to the organisation of the following internal competitions:

• COM/INT/EU10/08/AST1, Assistants (AST1) with Cypriot, Czech, Estonian, Hungarian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Slovak or Slovenian citizenship,
   
• COM/INT/EU10/08/AD5, Administrators (AD5) with Cypriot, Czech, Estonian, Hungarian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Slovak or Slovenian citizenship,
   
• COM/INT/EU10/08/AD9 and COM/INT/EU10/08/AD12, Heads of Unit (AD12) with Cypriot, Czech, Estonian, Hungarian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Slovak or Slovenian citizenship.

For further information, applicants should consult the registration guide (Annex 2). Detailed instructions on how to submit an application correctly are also given on the "Competitions/Selections" page of the PersAdmin website, which includes a Frequently Asked Questions section.
