TIPS FOR APPLICANTS:

A complete application must be submitted, including a résumé. In the "Screening Questions" section of the application, you will be asked to clearly demonstrate that you meet the education and experience criteria outlined in the essential qualifications, as well as any asset qualifications.

We suggest this format, when drafting your responses to the questions asked:

1. include where, when and how you obtained the required experience;
2. include the period(s) in which you performed the functions of the position(s).

By providing the required information in the suggested format, you will ensure that the assessors are able to assess the depth, complexity and scope of your experience.

Failure to provide sufficient information may result in your application being screened out of the process.

Work environment

► The Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP (CRCC) is a department of the federal government, distinct and independent from the RCMP. CRCC is a division of the Federal Core Public Administration under the responsibility of the Minister of Public Safety. CRCC's employees are employees of the public service.

► The Commission reviews and investigates complaints about the conduct of RCMP members. When reviewing a complaint, the Commission does not act as an advocate for either the complainant or the RCMP members. The Commission inquires into complaints independently and reaches conclusions after an objective examination of the information provided.

Intent of the process

If you don’t immediately receive a job offer at CRCC, qualified candidates will also be placed in a talent pool to be used for staffing similar permanent or temporary positions in the future. The skill specialization(s), work location, language profile, and security clearance requirements will vary according to the position being staffed.
