EU Careers: last AST3 competitions for 2012

This winter brings assistants posts: 2012 was a difficult year so the posts that will be published this time are not very appealing - just AST3 for Audit, Statistics, Economics, Finances and Accounting.

And for 2013 the EU recruiting plans are deeply sad and poor...so, your dreams to become European staff will need to wait!

The enrolling for the AST3 starts on 20 December 2012.
The address is well known - http://europa.eu/epso 

Ask Santa for lots of inspiration and start practicing reasoning tests!!!
Abstract Reasoning tests can also be found in the iTunes App Store.

Hohoho...and good luck!

European Year of Citizens 2013

Under the slogan "it's about Europe, it's about YOU", the European Year of Citizens 2013 is dedicated to the rights that come with EU citizenship.
 
Over this year, we will encourage dialogue between all levels of government, civil society and business at events and conferences around Europe to discuss those EU rights and build a vision of how the EU should be in 2020. One of the actions (from European Commission and Committee of Regions): The EU Citizens Passport!
 
The EU Citizens Passport is an information leaflet with a difference: it mimics the look and feel of a real passport, and is full of useful information about the European Union. It also provides a brief summary, in 24 languages, of the EU-level rights that come with the European Union Citizenship that all nationals of the European Union's member states enjoy in addition to their national rights.

Nobel Peace Prize 2012 awarded to European Union


The EU has received the 2012 award for advancing the causes of peace, reconciliation, democracy and human rights in Europe. In its announcement on 12 October, the Norwegian Nobel Committee said its decision was based on the stabilizing role the EU has played in transforming most of Europe from a continent of war to a continent of peace.

The EU’s most important achievement, according to the committee, has been "the successful struggle for peace and reconciliation and for democracy and human rights".
The European Union is the 21st international organisation to win the award since 1901.

Le prix sera décerné à Oslo, le 10 décembre. À l'instar des autres lauréats, l'UE le recevra des mains du président du comité Nobel. Elle sera représentée par le président du Conseil européen, le président de la Commission européenne et le président du Parlement européen. Le discours traditionnel du Nobel sera prononcé, au nom de l'UE, par les présidents Van Rompuy et Barroso. L'UE reversera le montant du prix (930 000 euros) à des projets destinés à aider les enfants victimes de guerres et de conflits.

Pentru a marca acest moment istoric, instituţiile UE şi Forumul European al Tineretului au organizat un concurs în care tinerii au avut posibilitatea să explice ce înseamnă pentru ei pacea în Europa. Câştigătorii îi vor însoţi pe liderii UE la Oslo pentru ceremonia de decernare a premiului.

20 years of EU Single Market !!!


Europe must act now to create more prosperity and jobs. And it must do this urgently in the wake of the financial crisis. That is why the European Commission adopted the Single Market Act, a series of measures to boost the European economy and create jobs.
Since 1992, the Single Market has brought tremendous benefits and created new opportunities. But free movement of goods, services, capital and people does not always happen smoothly. There is no truly integrated European market in some fields. Pieces of legislation are missing. And administrative obstacles and lacking enforcement leave the full potential of the Single Market unexploited.
En octobre 2012, la Commission a proposé un second paquet de mesures (Acte pour le marché unique II) afin de continuer à développer le marché unique et d’exploiter tout son potentiel pour stimuler la croissance.
Single Market Policies cover living and working in the EU, a single market for goods, for services, financial services and capital markets, etc.

EU Prize for Literature 2012 - celebration of Europe's best emerging authors


The aim of the European Prize for Literature is to put the spotlight on the creativity and diverse wealth of Europe’s contemporary literature in the field of fiction, to promote the circulation of literature within Europe and encourage greater interest in non-national literary works.
The works of the selected winners (one per country participating in the prize on a rotation basis) will reach a wider and international audience, and touch readers beyond national and linguistic borders.
The prize (5.000 Euro for each winner) is financed by the Culture Programme of the European Union whose objective is to achieve three main goals: to promote cross-border mobility of those working in the cultural sector; to encourage the transnational circulation of cultural and artistic output; and to foster intercultural dialogue.
The competition is opened to all 37 countries involved in the EU Culture Programme run by EC - DG EAC. This year the selected countries are: Austria , Croatia , France , Hungary , Ireland , Italy, Lithuania, Norway, Poland , Portugal, Slovakia and Sweden. So, 12 winners, Romania is not on the winners' list. Maybe next year...
The prizes were awarded in November 2012 in Brussels.
