I heard also that English test was a 'disaster' for more than 50 % of the candidates. ðŸ¤” But, yet nothing confirmed...

Re: Frontex Border Guard

I hear there's max 2-3 min. pause between the fitness tests.
They are very tough on standards.
Push-ups especially...no stops, face forward and triceps paralel to the floor.

A 3 min break is strict, even in work here with our fitness tests there is a significantly longer break.

What about sit ups, have anyone heard any details?
Do they have any stable spot for the legs?
