A meeting on the acceleration of recruitment procedures in the public sector was held this afternoon at the Maximou , under the leadership of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.

During the meeting, new Interior Minister Theodore Livanios and Deputy Interior Minister Paraskevi Charalabogianni presented proposals for the simplification of the procedures foreseen for new applications examined by the Supreme Personnel Selection Board.

The digitisation of the current procedures was also discussed, with the aim of speeding up the checking of applications by drawing data from services such as Ptyxia.gov.gr and Taxisnet. In this way, candidates’ certified qualifications will be updated immediately, thus reducing the number of checks carried out by the AESEP and helping to reduce the time taken to examine applications.

In addition, the development of the interoperability of the ASEP with government bodies involved in public sector recruitment procedures was discussed, in order to address unnecessary bureaucratic obstacles that currently delay the filling of positions and to further enhance the authority of the ASEP.

The meeting was also attended by State Ministers Makis Voridis and Akis Skertssos, Deputy Prime Minister Thanasis Kontogeorgis, Deputy Prime Minister and Government Spokesman Pavlos Marinakis, Deputy Prime Minister George Mylonakis and Secretary General of the Prime Minister Stelios Koutnatzis.
