Guidance

Using the new Civil Service Jobs for candidates

Guidance and advice for users of the new Civil Service Jobs beta service.

Civil Service Jobs is changing

The new Civil Service Jobs search is now in private beta. It’s still being tested and improved but you will be able to try:

  • searching for jobs
  • setting up alerts
  • creating an account

You will be able to change back to the current service at any time.

While we are running the current and new service at the same time, there may be some issues on the new service:

  • Job adverts may be missing attachments or have content in a different place place.
  • Job adverts may sometimes appear twice in the job search.
  • If you set up job alerts in the current and new service, you’ll receive emails for both.

Give us feedback on the new service using our feedback form.
