  • Examination: maximum score 60 points.

  • Merit: maximum score 40 points.

  1. Minimum requirements.

    Once the deadline for registration in the offer and submission of documentation has ended, the correct registration in the vacancy in the offer published on the Enusa Web will be verified, and the review of the documentation provided will proceed, all of it correctly in time and form.

    In case a language level is required, an internal test will be carried out for those candidacies that meet all the requested minimum requirements.

  2. Examination Phase - maximum 60 points

This phase consists of:

  • Technical test, consisting of multiple-choice and development questions related to the functions of the position. A minimum of 50% must be obtained to pass.

  • Psychotechnical tests, consisting of reasoning and personality tests. The average score of these tests must exceed the minimum of 30%.

  • Language level: in case it is a minimum requirement, the score obtained will be valued.

A written language test will be carried out at the same time as the psychotechnical tests, and an oral test will be conducted in case the rest of the results of the examination phase are passed.

  1. Merit Phase (Concurso) - maximum 40 points

    This phase will consist of two tests, assessment of merits and an individual interview, which will only be carried out for those who pass the examination phase.

    To score in this phase, the information requested in the announcement must be duly accredited and will be valued according to the certifications presented (titles or certificates).

The Technical Medical Report issued by the Technical Assessment Body that determined the degree of disability must be attached.

    Resolution of the process.

    Once the examination-merit process is finished, the resolution of the process will be published on the ENUSA website, identifying the candidacy/ies that have passed the process. The vacancy will be offered to the candidacy with the best score, after the summation of the two phases, and after medical fitness for the position. In case of resignation, the vacancy will pass to the next candidacy with the best score.

    Those candidacies that pass the examination-merit process, but have not been awarded the called position, may be included in the Employment Pool, where temporary vacancies with similar characteristics may be offered to them, provided that, in accordance with current regulations, they can join the offered contract modality.

    In case of a tie in points.

    For the assignment of positions, attention will be paid to the order of priority established based on the global score obtained by those who pass all the detailed phases of the process.

    In the event of equal scores, the following tie-breaking criteria will be taken into account, in the order indicated:

    1. Higher total score in the testing phase (psychotechnical test and technical test).

    2. Higher score in the curricular and competency interview.

    3. Higher score in the merit phase.
