Background information

Each organisation in the Civil Service has its own recruitment process, but all abide by certain key principles of recruitment.

In this section you can find out more about the rules governing recruitment, and the two independent bodies, the Commissioners, responsible for monitoring the recruitment process, and Public Appointments.

You will also find some general information about pay and nationality requirements, however each vacancy could have specific requirements, and it is important to note these before applying for a role.
