Public-sector and civil-service hiring in Germany — the official government job portal.
Germany's public sector employs two main types: career civil servants (Beamte), a lifelong public-law status, and public employees (Angestellte) under ordinary employment law. A career as a Beamter generally requires German, EU/EEA or Swiss nationality; public-employee (pay-scale) roles are open to all nationalities with the right to work. Federal vacancies are listed via official portals such as Interamt.
