Civil service work environments are often believed to be secure and therefore highly sought after by many. Health benefits and retirement funds are also very attractive to those who intend to work long-term.

There are many departments in the civil service, such as health, agriculture, education and more. You could work as a teacher, consultant, engineer or even web developer.

Jobs that aren’t necessarily thought of as being in the public sector such as accounting, human resources and public relations are all departments that are necessary in both private and public sectors.

Almost every job imaginable is performed by the civil service, with jobs being as varied as in the private sector. The government provides a vast amount of services, giving you a wide range of jobs to choose from.

Still, whatever your interest, career goals and skill sets are, and whether you want to specialise in or to pursue a new career choice, there’s always a path available in the civil service.
