We aim to make use of existing skills, which is why those working for the state have the opportunity to find work through staff rotation for a fixed term at another agency. When doing so, the employee will remain in the service of their own agency, which will pay the employee's salary and other personnel costs during the rotation. Staff rotation within a single agency is also possible.
Civil servants can also work for another government agency for a fixed period, as individuals can be hired for fixed-term positions of less than two years in duration without a public application process. However, a permanent position in another agency cannot be filled through an internal application procedure.
In addition, the state can utilise the internal mobility of civil servants and their skills through internal application procedures, for example during a reorganisation process used to restructure existing positions.

Internal mobility positions are visible only to state employees who register for the Valtiolle.fi job search service using their official state email address and log in via a separate link.
For questions related to internal mobility and the application process, employees should primarily contact the HR department of their own agency.
When applying for publicly advertised positions, state employees follow the same process as external applicants.
They must register using a private email address and apply through the same link as all other applicants.
State employees cannot apply for publicly listed positions on the www.valtiolle.fi website using their internal applicant credentials.
Contact information
All internal applicants within the state should contact the main users of their own agency.
