Career

Recruitment for vacant positions in the Agency for Sustainable and Operative Social Provision, particularly in the “DOST centers”, is conducted through general competitions (open to all citizens who meet the requirements of the vacant positions) and internal competitions (involving employees of the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Population of the Republic of Azerbaijan and its subordinate organizations who meet the requirements of the vacant positions).

Announcements of internal competitions are posted in the electronic centralized information system of the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Population of the Republic of Azerbaijan and communicated to employees.

Announcements of general competitions are published in the media and include detailed information about available vacancies and the terms of the competition.

Once a general competition is announced, citizens may apply to participate.

"DOST Volunteer" program

Volunteers play a very important role in “DOST” centers by greeting citizens and directing them to service windows, managing the flow of visitors, overseeing queues, raising awareness among citizens, assisting those who have difficulties using electronic systems, providing lists of required documents, helping with various forms and questionnaires, supporting people with disabilities with special attention and care, conducting feedback surveys, and performing many other tasks.

Through this activity, young people gain both practical experience and the skills to work with the most vulnerable groups of the population.

Volunteering in DOST Agency is organized into five directions: “Young DOST,” “Silver DOST,” “Inclusive DOST,” “Corporate DOST,” and “Distant DOST.”

• “Young DOST” is designed for young people aged 16–29. The volunteering period lasts 2 months, with work organized in 3 shifts daily. This sub-program benefits volunteers by allowing them to participate in socially important activities, develop business skills, enhance personal growth, spend leisure time meaningfully, build new friendships and networks, and take their first successful steps in their careers.

• “Silver DOST” targets individuals over 50 years old, promoting an active lifestyle and supporting meaningful leisure activities. Those interested in volunteering through this sub-program can register via this link: https://bit.ly/2LGsf80

It is now possible to be a DOST volunteer, either at home or anywhere. A computer, tablet, or smartphone is enough for this! Those who joined the “Distant DOST” subprogram complete tasks in the fields of education, training, research, PR, consulting etc. online. This program is also relevant in terms of the social inclusion of persons with disabilities and provides a good opportunity for them to work as volunteers without leaving home.

The DOST Volunteer program, which combines all sub-programs, aims to promote social participation, support voluntary movements and youth policy, strengthenstate-citizen relations, provide high-quality services, enhance youth readiness for the labor market, and encourage active aging. The program emphasizes principles such as statehood and patriotism, social and public responsibility, solidarity and cooperation, and care and support. Each young person who successfully completes their volunteer activities receives a special certificate.
