Canada-wide job postings let employees compete for positions within departments, between departments and between regions. Closely related to promotion opportunities are avenues for professional development. Here's how we recruit In this competitive environment, organizations gain an important advantage by using the latest recruitment technologies and by connecting early with the incoming stream of talent from the educational system and, through internship and job experience programs, bringing new recruits in as temporary employees. The federal government has long been a leader in this field. For students who perform well and want to make the relationship permanent, the PSC has special bridging mechanisms allowing managers to appoint students who have finished their education to permanent or temporary positions.
Students can also participate in internal competitions.
The Management Trainee Program looks for candidates with management potential and prepares them for middle management positions. The Accelerated Economist Training Program recruits high calibre master's degree candidates in economics, public administration and related disciplines for two-year assignments that prepare them for public policy positions. As you can see, the federal government brings significant attractions to a fiercely competitive recruitment market. The channels are in place to find the people we need, bring them in and develop them to their full potential. The future is bright for the Public Service of Canada.
