  • selection panels       
  • the recruitment process 
  • long and short-listing      
  • the final interview      
  • board proceedings      
  • post interview procedures and report
  • exceptions to the recruitment principles   
  • recruitment process chart     
  • members and officers of the Jersey Appointments Commission

The commission has been in existence since 2002 and has a Chairman and 4 other Commissioners.
