The Ministry is looking for candidates for the 127 jobs, of which 107 are in 19 police departments throughout Croatia, while 20 jobs are in the headquarters of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Zagreb. As many as 120 jobs are on open-ended contract, while 7 are on fixed-term contract. The largest number of jobs is related to administrative work like applications for personal documents as well as work and residence permits for foreigners. As many people are coming for jobs to Croatia, there has been a significant increase in the volume of work in the past period. Eligible are also candidates who have not passed the state exam of the appropriate level, with the obligation to take it later in accordance with the Law on Civil Servants.
