Overview
The Civil Service Bureau (CSB) is the Jordanian government body responsible for recruiting and managing appointments to civil service positions across government ministries and departments, coordinating applications and selection for public-sector vacancies in Jordan.
Who can apply
Eligibility (educational qualification, age, and any role-specific requirements) is set separately for each announced vacancy or competition, published by the Civil Service Bureau, and generally requires Jordanian citizenship.
Exam pattern
Selection for most positions combines an assessment of qualifications and experience against the announced post's requirements, and for many positions a written and/or computer-based test and an interview, with the specific combination of stages depending on the post and grade.
How to apply
Applications are submitted through the Civil Service Bureau's official channels (online where available) for the specific vacancy announcement, within the window published for that competition.
Preparation tips
Because eligibility criteria and test requirements are set separately for each announced vacancy, checking the specific announcement for the post applied to is necessary before preparing, rather than assuming one fixed national exam format applies across all Jordanian civil service roles.
