The Corruption Investigation Agency (headed by Oh Dong-woon) is conducting a public recruitment for three prosecutor positions.

On June 18, the agency announced that it will accept applications for the positions from June 24 to July 3, 2026. This recruitment is intended to fill vacancies within its authorized staff of 25 members.

Eligibility requires candidates to have held 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, including military prosecution, will receive preferential consideration during the document screening process.

According to the Corruption Investigation Agency Act, the term for prosecutors is three years, with the possibility of reappointment for up to three terms, allowing for a maximum tenure of 12 years. 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). Applicants can apply via the internet application site 'Uway Apply' (uwayapply.com).

After the application period ends, the selection process will include document screening, personality assessments, and interviews, followed by a recommendation from the personnel committee, with the final appointment made by the President.

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