I applied in-person. I interviewed at CNES (Toulouse) in Jan 2016
Interview
The campus in toulouse is big, around 3 h interview with different persons in different building. The main issue that they told me my travel will be refunded but after passing the interview and not being accepted they told me you will not get a refund because you came from abroad , we refund just local travels in France. I lost 500 euros for nothing. A shame for a big institute discovering the space!

Question 1
Connaissez-vous les domaines d'activité et les projets clés du CNES ?
The hiring process took a very long time. Therefore you should plan long time in advance when you would like to move to French Guiana and work at the European spaceport.
