The Public Service of Canada is committed to building a skilled and diverse workforce that reflects the Canadians we serve. We promote employment equity and encourage you to indicate if you belong to one of the designated groups when you apply.
Information on employment equity
In support of achieving a diverse workforce, the first wave of assessments might prioritize candidates who self-declare as a member of one of the following Employment Equity groups: Aboriginal persons, Persons with disabilities, Women and Members of visible minorities.
Give yourself the best chance to succeed! As the objective of this process is to assess qualifications needed for the position(s) to be staffed, let us know if you have a functional limitation/disability, which may affect your performance. For example, contact us if you need assistance in completing and submitting your application. Should you then proceed to the next assessment stage, we will send you additional information on the assessment format so that you can determine if you may require an accommodation (such as a different test format, an adaptive technology, or additional time). Assessment accommodations are designed to remove the obstacles without altering the criteria being assessed so candidates with functional limitations can fully demonstrate their abilities.
VOLUME MANAGEMENT
We may decide to use volume management strategies for the assessment of candidates. These strategies may include selecting candidates for further assessment who meet specific asset qualifications. Other volume management strategies may be used depending on the number of applications received.
IMPORTANT NOTES
All information obtained throughout the selection process, from the time of application to the conclusion of the process, may be used to evaluate candidates.
You will be required to complete screening questions as part of your online application. It is your responsibility to provide appropriate examples and sufficient information that illustrate how you meet each qualification. Failing to do so may result in your application being rejected.
Asset criteria are not essential to your qualification in this process; as such we do not expect you to respond to each asset criteria. However, we encourage you to respond to any and all asset criteria that you feel correspond to your experience or qualifications, as this may be a deciding factor in determining the type of opportunities you may be considered for.
Foreign Education Credentials: Candidates with foreign education credentials are required to provide proof of Canadian equivalency. If you have been educated outside of Canada, it is your responsibility to have your certificates and/or diplomas assessed against Canadian educational standards. Candidates must be prepared to submit electronic proof of a Canadian equivalent education at the time of application. The Canadian Information Centre for International Credentials (CICIC) contains information on how to obtain an assessment of foreign education credentials: http://www.cicic.ca/en/index.aspx.
Indeterminate employees at the same group and level or equivalent may be considered first for deployment.
Please note that achieving the pass mark on any of the assessments used does not mean you will move forward in the selection process. Management may decide to use various methods of shortlisting of candidates at any stage of the process.
Reference checks may be sought.
