Intent of the process

Join a fast-growing organization that makes a real difference in the health of Canadians!

Through a single application you’ll open the door to opportunities in not one, but two world-class organizations: Health Canada (HC) and the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC).

This collective staffing process will be used to fill multiple positions at the CR-04 (clerical and regulatory, level 4) classification in various branches of HC and PHAC in Ottawa.

Our intent is to complete the assessment process as quickly as possible. Candidates are expected to check their e-mail and GCJobs accounts regularly for information on the process. Candidates who do not respond to inquiries from the assessment team by the required deadlines may be eliminated from consideration.

Interviews for this process will be completed via pre-recorded video interviews. Candidates will be asked to record their responses to interview questions using their own computer or mobile device. Information on the video interview process will be sent to candidates who are selected for an interview at a later date.
