Applying for a Public Sector
Government Job
with Moyra McWilliam


Are you looking for a job with the government? 

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to set yourself apart from the crowd with your application and interview! 

There are three levels of government in Ottawa: federal, provincial and municipal. Navigating these bureaucracies as a job seeker can be incredibly daunting. This workshop will demystify the process of applying to public sector jobs and give you the inside track when it comes to reading job posters, understanding competencies, writing resumes and cover letters that will get you screened in, writing tests and preparing for board interviews. 

Thousands of people apply every month to work for the government.  

 Join Moyra McWilliam of Starfish Coaching to learn what you need to know to set you apart!
