Turkey: Candidates await 2026 EKPSS application dates for public sector jobs

Following the release of EKPSS results, thousands of Turkish candidates are eagerly anticipating the official announcement regarding application dates for public institution appointments. The EKPSS, or Engelli Kamu Personeli Seçme Sınavı (Disabled Public Personnel Selection Exam), is a crucial step for individuals with disabilities seeking employment in government roles.

Candidates who have successfully passed the exam are now focused on the next phase: the application process. They are seeking clear guidance on when and how they can submit their applications to various public institutions and organizations. The selection process is managed by the Measuring, Selection and Placement Center (ÖSYM), which is expected to release the detailed schedule and procedures.

The anticipation highlights the significance of the EKPSS in Turkey's public employment sector. For many disabled individuals, securing a position in the civil service offers stability and opportunity. The delay in announcing application dates creates uncertainty for these candidates, who are keen to understand the requirements and deadlines to ensure they do not miss their chance to apply for available positions.
