When you apply to this selection process, you are not applying for a specific job, but to an inventory for future vacancies. As positions become available, applicants who meet the qualifications may be contacted for further assessment.
The PSC is located in a brand new building at 22 Eddy Street, in the heart of downtown Gatineau. Our location is easily accessible and is located near Terrasses de la Chaudière and just a few kilometers away from downtown Ottawa. Our facilities meet the new 2.0 office concept and is WI-FI ready throughout the building. Our employees also have access to showers, changing rooms and reserved spaces for bicycles, which is ideal for those wishing to travel to work by bike, running or walking while using the nearby bike paths. Moreover, the PSC launched in March, a pilot project for active workstations, which now enables our employees to work while walking on treadmill or pedaling on stationary bike.
The results of this process will initially be used to staff five (5) positions indeterminately. A pool of qualified candidates may be established to staff identical or similar positions on an indeterminate or term basis with various linguistic profiles within the Public Service Commission in the National Capital Region.
IMPORTANT: Other Federal organizations will have access to this pool only once the PSC will have made his choice of candidates.
