Candidates must upload all required supporting documents to their application in the Single Candidate Portal before the deadline for uploading supporting documents indicated in the Notice of Competition. Failure to do so may lead to disqualification from the competition (see Annex “General rules” of the Notice of Competition, section “Disqualification from the competition”). 

Documents can be uploaded at different stages of the process:

• Before the application deadline:

  • documents should be uploaded via “My account” → “My CV”, to the relevant CV records.

    After uploading the documents, make sure to submit your application. Otherwise, the uploaded documents will not be linked to your application.

• After the application deadline (and before the deadline for uploading supporting documents):

  • documents must be uploaded directly to the relevant application and not to your profile’s CV section. Any documents added to your CV after the application deadline will not automatically transfer to the submitted application and will not be visible to EPSO or the Selection Board.

     

To upload documents directly to your application:

1. Go to: My account → My applications → My submitted applications
2. Click on your application’s unique ID.
3. Scroll down to the existing entries for Education & Training, Professional Experience, etc.
4. Attach the documents using the paperclip icon. They can be in any of the 24 official EU languages and may be uploaded in PNG, JPG, or PDF format. The maximum file size is 20MB per document.

Documents are saved automatically. There is no save button.

The Selection Board will only consider documents uploaded to the relevant section of the application.

Requests for additional documents

In line with the Notice of Competition, candidates may be asked at any stage of the procedure to provide additional information or supporting documents.

If the Selection Board identifies missing or incomplete documents during the eligibility checks, candidates may receive a request to upload additional documents via the “My communications” section of the Single Candidate Portal. 

For such requests do NOT attach any document in your profile’s CV section as it will NOT be visible to the Selection Board. 

To respond to these requests:

1. Go to: “My communications”.
2. Open the Supporting document request.

3. Click the link at the bottom of the page to proceed to the upload area. 

    

4. Carefully read the instructions in the portal and, from the drop-down menu, select the CV record for which you were invited to upload a document. 

5. Once the relevant CV record is selected, click “Upload” to access your files and select one single document to upload. 

Please note that once a document is submitted, it cannot be modified.

If several documents are required for the same CV record, they must be combined into a single file. 
 

6. Click “Submit”.

A pop-up confirmation will appear.

Repeat steps 1-6 for each CV record for which a document has been requested.
