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

Candidates should register online by means of the links 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.
