Judgment No. 881
Decision
THE COMPLAINT IS DISMISSED.
Considerations 12-13
Extract:
The complainant asks that his professional experience be reckoned anew. "Professional experience and further studies will count under the guidelines only if subsequent to the date of the degree or diploma that qualifies for recruitment. [...] Periods of study, training or other experience prior to obtaining the professional qualification required for appointment to the EPO do form part of the qualification for which they constitute preparation and cannot count all over again as professional experience."

Consideration 14
Extract:
"Likewise immaterial are the level and length of the experience [the complainant] says should count, and how long such experience must be to be treated as exceptional under I.1 [of Circular 144]. Such questions arise only where the applicant has no degree but is recruited on the strength of exceptional practical experience."
