Question
What is preferential treatment in the state sector?
Answer
Please note that this section only applies to previous employees in the norwegian State.
Excess government employee applicant who has the rights to a position of the State, are entitled to special treatment in the application process, see § 24 of the law of the State employed (Statsansatteloven)
If you have such rights, check for this before submitting the application. This is optional.
NB: A request for such treatment will only apply to the position you are applying for, and not to your CV. The request cannot be seen by anyone other than executive officers for the position you have applied for. If you are applying for other vacant positions, you must make a new request for special treatment for each application.
