I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at European Commission (Brüssel) in Jul 2013
Interview
phone-call regarding my professional and educational background. The interview was conducted by a manager of the Unit. It was direct to the point...an investigation if I had the right skills!

Question 1
Which languages do you speak? more about my studies in EU Law
