This round of Ministry placement is now closed! Thanks so much to everyone who applied, and we look forward to seeing you in the roleplay! We are currently in the process of making a few last minute placements from those apps already sent in, plus we're making the rounds putting in tags and posting permissions. Some of you may receive your PM first and your tags/permissions last, and then some of you may see your tags and permissions come in before you get your PM. If you happen to spot a tag come up on your profile before your PMed, then please expect your PM soon. Feel free to play in the Atrium area until your PM arrives.
Thanks, everyone!

The Ministry of Magic wants you! Now hiring!
The placement questionnaire can be found here and will be open until Tuesday, June 14th. Please remember to read the MoM RPG Rules/FAQ before completing your application.
Once you've filled out your application, you can visit Ministry Mingling for more information. Placement is a lengthy process for the MoM Staff, so please do put on your patient pants after submitting your application.
There are few things that seemed to trip some of you up last time that we'd like to address.
Who can take Ministry Placement Questionnaire?
If you are not currently a member of the Ministry of Magic and would like to be - YOU may apply now!
If you ARE currently a Ministry employee, but wish to change characters - simply retake the questionnaire using your new character.
If you wish to have your current character considered for another job, a promotion, or another department - you may also take the quiz! Just use question 3 for letting us know what your wishes are. We cannot and will not make guarantees, of course, but we will review your character and their job and see what we can offer. Note that promotions will typically come In-Character from your Department Head with character longevity and reliability.
Questionnaire:
All parts of the questionnaire should be filled out in-character (as your character, not as you).
Question 13 asks for a letter of reference. Feel free to ask someone on the site to create one for you (if their character knows your character) or you can create one of your own.
The more information that you supply on the application, the better we are able to place your character. https://pharaoncasinos.com/
Please fill out the entire application! Don't skip questions! If you must skip a question, then tell us why in the last question of the questionnaire.
After Placement:
The only way to change your MoM character is to retake the placement questionnaire when placement time rolls around. So before you fill out your application, you need to think carefully about the character you'd like to play, because you won't be able to change again until another placement opens. The Ministry Placement fits very specific jobs (that are assigned by the MoM staff individually with much care and thought) to your specific character. So, you can't just up and change characters and keep the same job.
If you have questions - you know what to do. Hit up any Ministry Staffer and we'll be more than happy to help.
I love what I got. But I have a question: How do I find a picture for my character? I noticed that in the filing Cabinet,I have to put a picture. But I don't know what picture I'm allowed to use.

In the MoM, it usually takes between 1-2 weeks to get your results. It's not uncommon for some apps to take the entire sorting process to complete, but that's only because we have a very thorough way of sorting. Your app likely goes through three different people before you get your PM, and we all look through it carefully to determine the best place for your charrie. I can't give you an exact date as to when you'll hear back, but we're working on it!

To find an image for your charrie, just figure out which celebrity closely matches how your character should look. Then go to any search engine or image site and look for pictures of that person. Then you can always go to SnitchSeeker's graphics section, Madame Malkins, and have a graphics set made for your character if you'd like.
just realised that every time someone mentions their work placement at my college (end of high school for all you americans out there) I get really excited about the ministry placement XD

Okay, I just took a look at your application. Which parts of it did you answer OOC, because it looks like a lot of your written answers are about the character himself.
We ask that you fill it out in-character, because when we do the hiring, we're hiring characters (their qualifications, backgrounds, work interests, etc.) rather than the OOC member. We have individualized jobs in each department, and the job your character ends up with will be reflective of your application. So if it's OOC, we can't assign the character a job that will fit him.
Your application looks IC to me, though, which is why I thought to ask which parts you were referring to in your question.

Yes, sometimes your department head receives your application and processes it earlier than we make the rounds putting in tags, but your tag will be changed soon!

I remember it not being in a first person narrative, but if that's fine with you it's fine with me. I think I'm just worrying too much. Excited to get back to the ministry.
