are obtained by direct transfer from other branches of the Corps. Male civil technical assistants are engaged through the agency of the Ministry of Labour and are selected after interview. In the case of surveying and drawing staff, preference is given to candidates with previous knowledge of these subjects; candidates are, however, required to undergo a practical test of their capacity. In the case of artificers, trade experience is required. The female technical staff are selected locally from suitable qualified candidates. The clerical staff are appointed after open competitive examination by the Civil Service Commission.
