Pass yourEPSO exam

I met Maria when I was preparing for an AD7 competition for researchers. I had the opportunity to work with her both in presence and remotely. Maria is based in Brussels and understands how EU selection processes are structured in practice. She offered guidance fully matching formats and evaluation logic of EU competitions.

I particularly enjoyed Maria's methodology. We started with a diagnostic of my strengths and knowledge gaps, based on the specific competition I was applying for. Then Maria prepared a step-by-step plan with weekly priorities and milestones—so I could work steadily. I'll make an example: each week I would send her a written assignment. She would review it, send me her comments, and then we would meet online to discuss strengths and weaknesses of my work.

Maria breaks preparation into routines (timed practice, error analysis, and improvement loops) and teaches candidates how to approach tasks strategically. I learnt how to translate my experience into evidence, and I improved greatly in drafting concise examples and delivering answers aligned with the evaluation criteria. This is extremely useful across written assessments, structured interviews, and assessment-centre style exercises.

Maria offers flexible support through both online sessions and in-person coaching in Brussels, and she can combine deeper sessions with lighter check-ins to keep momentum between milestones. Most importantly, she has very affordable rates - differently from many other coaches who charge candidates with very high prices.

I would definitely recommend her for a coaching exercise, in preparation for a competition, an interview or any other activity that requires focus and preparation.

I would like to sincerely recommend working with Maria to prepare your EPSO competition.

Preparing an EPSO competition maybe a daunting challenge but thanks to Maria's systematic, professional and meticulously tailored approach, I entered the assessment with confidence and clarity. From that outset it was clear that her method was not just about imparting knowledge – it was about structuring success through precision, adaptability a one-size size fits all strategy, she began with a thorough diagnostic of my strength and weaknesses and the competition's specific demands. Each session was goal oriented breaking down the EPSO's complex requirements- from research methodology to case study analysis into manageable actionable steps. Her ability to demystify abstract criteria (e.g "analytical depth" or "policy relevance") into concrete practicable techniques was invaluable; for example, EPSO did not just explain how to structure a written assignment, and she provided me with an annotated examples and iterative feedback to refine my approach until it met EPSO's exacting standards.

Attention to detail was a hallmark of Maria's coaching. Whether scrutinising the clarity of my hypothesis; her rigour of my data interpretation or the precision of my language they left no stone unturned. Her feedback was constructive yet incisive highlighting not just what needed improvement but why and how to address it. This level of granularity extended to time management and exam strategy, ensuring I could perform under pressure without sacrificing quality.

Beyond technical preparation, her encouragement and psychological support were equally vital. They struck the perfect balance between challenging me to excel and building my resilience reminding me that setbacks were part of the learning process.

Her own deep familiarity with EPSO's expectations-gleaned from years of experience -meant she could anticipate pitfalls and steer me away from common mistakes giving me a competitive edge. In short, Maria transformed what could have been an overwhelming experience into a strategic, empowering journey.

Maria's combination of expertise personalised guidance and relentless attention to detail didn't just prepare me for the competition -it equipped me with skills I'll carry forward in my career.

For anyone serious about excelling in EPSO assessments, I cannot recommend Maria's mentorship highly enough. Five stars without hesitation

I had a very positive experience working with Maria Głowacz while preparing for an interview for a traineeship at the European Ombudsman. The mock interview was extremely helpful. Many of the questions Maria asked were very similar (if not identical) to those I was later asked during the actual interview, which made me feel much more prepared and confident. She helped me structure my answers more effectively, highlight my academic and professional experiences, and better communicate the soft skills I had developed through them. Just as importantly, the session helped me manage my nerves and approach the interview with a calmer and more focused mindset. I would definitely recommend Maria to anyone preparing for a competitive selection process, especially in the European institutions.

And guess what I officially passed the selection for the European Ombudsman traineeship! Thank you, Maria! :)
