Giving you the best chance to succeed!

If you have a limitation that may impact your performance at any steps of the assessment process (such as during a written test or an interview), you may request an accommodation. Assessment accommodations are designed to remove barriers, and to ensure that candidates with limitations can fully demonstrate their abilities. Should you wish to be accommodated, please direct your inquiry to the contact identified at the bottom of this poster. All information received in relation to accommodation will be kept confidential.

Applications will be periodically pulled and reviewed/assessed based on needs. The first pull of candidate applications could be as early as May 31, 2023. It is therefore important for candidates to apply online as soon as possible. Other screening processes will be conducted periodically as vacancies arise.
Work environment

With a strong focus on quality customer service, we provide innovative common services such as real estate and building management, purchasing, banking, pay and pensions, and translation to other government departments, agencies and boards. By providing these centralized services to departments and agencies, we enable them to focus on what they do best: providing their programs and services to Canadians.
At PSPC, we are committed to achieving a competent, representative workforce that reflects the diversity of the Canadian population. We work hard to create a welcoming, respectful and inclusive workplace through a variety of programs and initiatives. In fact, we have been named one of Canada’s Best Diversity Employers for the seventh year in a row and here is a list of some of our diversity and inclusion achievements:
- five diversity networks;

- a national Reconciliation and Indigenous Engagement Unit;
- an Ombudsman for Mental Health (the first such position within the federal public service);
- an Accessibility Office and;
- a Gender-based Analysis Plus (GBA+) Centre of Expertise.
While many programs and initiatives have already been implemented in line with our commitments to diversity and inclusion, we aim to get better! That's why we invite you to be part of the change by joining an organization where individual differences are recognized, valued and respected. Be part of the solution!
