The call takes the form of a competitive exam process and is open to everybody meeting the requisites set out in the rules. The application period closes tomorrow.
This year’s call, which closes tomorrow, 28 November, features some important changes with the goal promoting women’s access to the corps, and is the first time that 25% of places have been reserved for women.
Another new aspect this year is the inclusion of a foreign language test, which will be obligatory but not eliminatory. Candidates will be able to choose which language they want to be examined in when they make their applications: English, French, German, Italian, Arabic, Chinese or Urdu, using the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
Applications can be made online using the Barcelona City Council website (public vacancies section) and the procedures website. As an exceptional measure, candidates can also submit applications via the General Register at Barcelona City Council or through any of the means contemplated under the legal regime for public administrations and common administrative procedures.
Besides checking the rules, candidates can also use the public vacancies website for processing applications online and paying the corresponding fee for the public vacancies process.
