Frequently asked questions from students

The process differs depending on the region:

  • Flanders: You need to register on the WerkenVoor website, the recruitment agency for the Flemish public sector. All vacancies can be found there.
  • Federal level (applies across Belgium): Statutory and mandate positions are recruited via SELOR, the federal government's selection office.
  • Wallonia: Regional and local government positions are typically recruited via Le Forem and the relevant Walloon public administrations.
  • Brussels: Regional positions go through talent.brussels, while Actiris also lists many public and other job openings.

For statutory or mandate positions, an application period of around 15 days generally applies. After submitting your application, you'll receive a confirmation, after which you may be invited for tests and interviews. For contractual positions, you can also submit your CV spontaneously via the relevant platform (WerkenVoor, SELOR, Le Forem, or Actiris, depending on the region and level of government).

The private sector consists of privately owned companies focused on profit, while the public sector consists of government bodies and municipalities focused on providing services to society. Internships and student jobs in the public sector can also tend to last longer and offer more opportunities for long-term career prospects.

The easiest way is to regularly check vacancies from public employers, depending on the region:

  • Flanders: the Flemish government via WerkenVoor and VDAB.
  • Federal level: federal government positions via SELOR.
  • Wallonia: regional and local administrations via Le Forem.
  • Brussels: regional and local administrations via Actiris and talent.brussels.

Don't want to miss anything? Set up a job alert on student.be. You'll then automatically receive a notification as soon as a new internship, student job, or starter job in the public sector matching your profile and interests is published.
