This FAQ addresses recruitment handled by the Ministry of the Attorney General
and by the Northern Recruitment Centre.
What is the Northern Recruitment Centre?
This is a professional recruitment centre in the Ontario Public Service,
providing support to front-line managers hiring to fill positions in the
north.
Why should I apply on-line?
Applying on-line ensures that your information, in your format,
reaches the correct competition file on time, and you will have confirmation
that your application has been received.
What happens when I apply on-line? How do I know my application has been
received?
When you apply on-line, it is important that you make sure you are applying to
the correct competition, prior to the end of the closing date. You need to
upload your cover letter and resume in one document. Once you have submitted
your application, you will get a message confirming that your application was
saved. If you provide your email address, you will also receive an email
confirming your application has been received.
How do I receive a detailed job description, or check on the status of a
competition?
The job specification can often be obtained electronically, along with
the job posting by clicking on 'job spec'. If the job spec is not posted
electronically or if you want to check on the status of the competition:
-
for positions posted by the Ministry of the Attorney General, you should use
the contact information provided in the job advertisement.
-
for positions posted by the Northern
Recruitment Centre, please call 705-564-7021.
I applied for a position weeks ago and have not heard anything from the ministry.
What should I do?
Due to the high volume of applications to most positions, we often only
contact those applicants we wish to interview.
What if I send my application after the closing date?
Recruitment is a planned and carefully managed activity. When applying to a
specific position, please pay particular attention to the closing time and
date. Resumes received after that time and date cannot be included in the
competition. The system will not accept applications after the closing date
I noticed several acronyms in Ministry of the Attorney General
advertisements that I am not familiar with. What are ALOC and OCAA?
ALOC stands for The Association of Law Officers of the Crown. OCAA is
The Ontario Crown Attorney's Association.
