Professional experience and languages

Candidates must have at least two years of experience in the public or private sector and must master Arabic and French, both written and spoken, for the administrative writing technician role. These conditions are central to assessing the application: holding the diploma alone is not enough if experience and command of both languages are not established.

Required diploma

Candidates must hold a specialised technician diploma issued by one of the vocational training institutions or a recognised equivalent, in the specialty of administrative writing techniques or administrative writing. A copy of the diploma or certificate obtained must be attached, together with a copy of the equivalence decision where applicable; a mere certificate of success is not accepted.

• A handwritten application addressed to the Director of Archives du Maroc, specifying the grade and the specialty of the competition, accompanied by an authorisation to sit the competition issued by the administration for candidates who are civil servants.
• A curriculum vitae supported by certificates of internships and acquired qualifications, stating the personal address, telephone number and email address.
• A copy of the electronic national identity card.
• A copy of the diploma or certificate obtained, accompanied where applicable by a copy of the equivalence decision.
• A copy of the certificate establishing the status of resistance fighter, ward of the nation, former soldier or former combatant, where applicable.
• A copy of the disability certificate for candidates with disabilities.
• One or more certificates establishing the required experience and qualifications.

Application method and deadline

Applications must be submitted compulsorily through the public employment portal, after filling in the candidate's information and uploading the scanned version of the required documents in PDF format. The application deadline is 23 November 2026 at 16:30.

Applications that do not meet the competition conditions, are not registered electronically, or are registered without uploading all required documents will not be considered. Candidates are therefore advised to check that their file is complete before final submission.

Practical application steps

1. Check that you meet the nationality, age, experience and language conditions.
2. Prepare clear digital copies of all required documents in PDF format.
3. Fill in your personal and professional information on the public employment portal.
4. Upload all required documents before completing registration.
5. Verify that your application has been registered before the deadline expires.

Competition tests

The competition comprises two tests, each with a coefficient of 2:

• Written test: it includes a general question or multiple-choice questions (MCQ) on various topics or topics related to the institution, the missions, the required specialties or the functions attached to the grade concerned; duration: three (3) hours.
• Oral or practical test, or both: the competition panel discusses various topics and issues with the candidate or sets a practical test in the required specialty, in order to assess the candidate's ability to perform the missions or functions attached to the grade concerned; duration: between 15 and 30 minutes.

Any mark below 5 out of 20 is eliminatory. Only candidates who obtain an average of at least 10 out of 20 in the written test are admitted to the oral or practical test, or both.

Publication of results and preparation

The lists of candidates admitted to sit the competition and the results of the written and oral tests are published on the public employment portal and on the institution's website; this publication serves as an invitation to the admitted candidates. Candidates are advised to check these platforms regularly after the application period closes.

For sound preparation, candidates can revise topics related to the missions and techniques of administrative writing, practise multiple-choice questions and prepare for an oral or practical test assessing their ability to carry out the missions attached to the grade. They should also review the required documents and check their compliance with the announced conditions; this guidance is practical preparation and does not add any official condition to the announcement.
