The European Union (EU) is looking for talented graduates from all fields of study to join its civil service on an indefinite basis through the AD 5 Graduate Administrators Competition.

The European Personnel Selection Office (EPSO) is organising a competition to establish a reserve list from which the institutions, bodies and agencies of the EU may recruit new permanent officials as administrators.

The general role of administrators is to support decision-makers in fulfilling the mission of their institution or body, contributing to policies and programmes that impact millions of people across Europe.

To apply for this competition, applicants must be graduates and have a good knowledge of two official languages of the EU. No professional experience is required for this competition.

The selection process includes online reasoning tests, as well as tests on EU knowledge, digital skills and a free-text essay on EU matters.

Once placed on the reserve list, successful candidates may be contacted by the recruitment services of EU institutions and bodies interested in their profile for targeted recruitment interviews. More details are available on the EPSO website here.

The application period opened on 5 February 2026 and closes on 10 March 2026 at noon.

Interested candidates are encouraged to attend an information session on organised by Servizzi Ewropej f'Malta on Thursday 12 February at 18:30. To register, please visit the Agency's website here.
