Talentlink

Please note that previous applications saved in Talentlink  under your candidate account will NOT be transferred to the new platform. Therefore, we encourage you to download them and save them outside of the platform. You will need to fully complete an application in the Recruitment Hub the first time you apply for a post published on this new platform.

Some other questions…

Do you only hire police officers?

No, INTERPOL staff come from a variety of backgrounds and it is not compulsory to have law enforcement experience. The minimum requirements for each post are stated in the vacancy notice.

Do I need to speak French for positions in Lyon?

No, INTERPOL has four official languages: English, French, Spanish and Arabic. For the majority of positions good working knowledge of English is required and it will be stated in the vacancy notice if other languages are required.

I was informed that I have been rostered for a position, what does this mean?

Rosters may be created for certain posts that the Organization fills on a regular basis and are valid for a period of 3 years. Once your name is on a roster, before a post is published, the Hiring Manager may choose to select a candidate from the roster. In this case, there is no need for another written assessment or formal interview.
