Recruitment of 3rd-grade technicians, scale 9, in Ain Chkef

A recruitment competition for 3rd-grade technicians in Ain Chkef

The president of the communal council of Ain Chkef, a commune in Moulay Yacoub province under the Ministry of the Interior, has announced a competition to recruit 3rd-grade technicians, scale 9, to fill vacant posts within the commune. The opening order sets the number of posts advertised at two (02), split between two specialities in civil engineering and computing.

The competition will take place on Sunday 31 January 2027 at nine in the morning at the Mohammed Zerktouni preparatory school in Ain Chkef commune. Applications may be submitted until 20 December 2026 at 16:30. The competition code is C 44728/26, and it is a regular recruitment.

Distribution of posts by speciality

The order links each of the two posts to a specific speciality and requires a "technicien spécialisé" or "technicien" diploma issued by vocational training establishments created under Decree No. 2.86.325 of 9 January 1987 laying down the general statute of vocational training establishments, or one of the recognised equivalent diplomas whose list is set in accordance with Decree No. 2.12.90 of 30 April 2012.

Candidates must hold the required diploma in the speciality they choose and attach a copy of the equivalence decision where applicable. The order also sets an additional condition for the 4th-grade, scale 8 posts (motor vehicle mechanics or electrical systems) that form part of the same competition, namely a category C or D driving licence; those two posts are not among the two 3rd-grade posts advertised.

Legal eligibility conditions

General civil-service conditions

The competition is open to candidates meeting the conditions laid down in Article 21 of the general statute of the civil service, in particular Moroccan nationality, enjoyment of national rights, good character and integrity, and the physical and mental capacity to perform public duties.

Age condition

Candidates must be at least 18 and at most 40 years old on the date of the competition, that is 31 January 2027. The upper age limit may be extended by a period equal to valid service or service that can be validated for retirement, without exceeding 45 years.

Priorities and reserved quotas

25% of posts are reserved for people with the status of resistance fighter, ward of the nation, former soldier or former combatant, and 7% of posts are reserved for persons with disabilities. These two quotas are independent of each other and do not overlap. Beneficiaries must include the documents proving their status in their application file.

Application file and required documents

The application file consists of the following documents, none of which may be dated more than three (03) months earlier:

• A handwritten application to sit the recruitment competition stating the candidate's first and last name, address, signature, email address, telephone number, and the post and speciality applied for.
• A copy of the required diploma in the requested speciality or of one of the recognised equivalent diplomas, together with a copy of the equivalence decision where applicable.
• A curriculum vitae with a recent photograph.
• Three (03) envelopes bearing the postage stamp and the candidate's personal address.
• Written authorisation to sit the competition issued by their home administration, for candidates who are civil servants only.
• A copy of the document proving resistance fighter, ward of the nation, former soldier or former combatant status, for those concerned.
• A certificate confirming that the candidate has a disability, for persons concerned.
• A criminal record certificate.
• Any document showing that the candidate has the skills and abilities required to perform the duties of the post.

Applications are submitted to the registry office of Ain Chkef commune during administrative working hours, until 20 December 2026 at 16:30, the final deadline. Any file missing one of the listed documents, received after the deadline, or not meeting the required conditions will not be considered and is deemed void.

Tests and coefficients

The competition includes a written test and an oral or practical test, with the following durations and coefficients:

• Written test: one or more optional topics or multiple-choice questions on territorial collectivities and their remits; duration three (03) hours; coefficient 4.
• Oral or practical test: varied topics or an applied exercise in the speciality, assessing the candidate's ability to perform the tasks attached to the grade concerned; duration from fifteen (15) to forty-five (45) minutes; coefficient 3.

Publication of results and convocation

The list of candidates admitted to sit the competition, the written-test results and the final results are published on the public employment portal, on the portal of the General Directorate of Territorial Collectivities and, where available, on the commune's electronic portal, and are posted at the commune's headquarters. This publication serves as convocation of candidates to the various stages of the competition, and they may also be called by any available means.

The opening order is published on the public employment portal and on the General Directorate of Territorial Collectivities portal, posted at the commune's headquarters and published in two national newspapers, one of them in Arabic.

Practical advice for preparing the application

Candidates should first settle on the single speciality they wish to compete in, because the handwritten application must state it clearly together with the post. They should then check that their diploma matches one of the two advertised specialities or that they hold a valid equivalence decision. It is also useful to prepare the three envelopes, the curriculum vitae and the recent photograph before going to the registry office, so as to avoid rejection for a missing document.

For the written test, focus on territorial collectivities and their remits and practise multiple-choice questions, since this test carries the higher coefficient (4). Because the oral or practical test measures the ability to perform the grade's duties, familiarity with the practical tasks of the chosen speciality is helpful.

Finally, candidates should follow the publication of the lists and results on the stated portals, since publication counts as official convocation. It is prudent to keep a copy of every document submitted and to check that no document is dated more than three months earlier.

Salary: from 5500 to 7500 MAD per month.
