Abstract

The purpose of our study is to provide a up-to-date comparative analysis of the practices used in civil servants recruitment and selection in European Union countries and to identify recent reform tendencies in this area. Our study has drawn upon extensive documentation regarding recent evolution of the practices used in civil servants recruitment and selection in the group of countries inclued in our study. Civil service recruitment systems have been analysed in terms of competency delegation, methods used in civil servants selection and openness of the recruitment process towards candidates coming from outside the civil service system. A distinct section of our comparative study deals with senior civil servants recruitment and analyses the recruitment procedures applied to this category of civil servants with regard to recruitment procedures and openness towards occupying senior management positions from outside the system. Our study shows that traditional civil service systems undergo a series of reforms and changes determined by the need to answer current requirements of the population and governments.
