The Corruption Investigation Agency (Director Oh Dong-woon) is publicly recruiting three prosecutors.

On June 18, the agency announced that it will accept applications for the 2026 prosecutor recruitment from June 24 to July 3. This recruitment aims to fill vacancies among the 25 authorized positions.

Eligibility requires candidates to hold a legal license for at least five years as of the application date. Additionally, those with over three years of investigative experience in law enforcement agencies, including military prosecution, will receive preference during the document screening.

According to the Corruption Investigation Agency Act, the term for prosecutors is three years, with the possibility of renewal for up to three terms, allowing for a maximum of 12 years of service. The mandatory retirement age is 63.

Applications can only be submitted online through designated websites, with the announcement posted on the agency's official site (cio.go.kr) and the government job portal (gojobs.go.kr). Candidates can apply via the internet application platform 'Uway Apply' (uwayapply.com).

After the application period ends, document screening, personality assessments, and interviews will take place starting in July, followed by a recommendation process by the personnel committee, culminating in the President's final appointment.

A spokesperson for the agency stated, "With this recruitment, we aim to maintain a high standard of ethics and integrity required of prosecutors and will expand the evaluation of professional competencies to select outstanding investigative and prosecutorial personnel."
