Ministry of Government Legislation Announces New Fixed-Term AI Specialists

MOGL Names Final Candidates for Specialized Roles

The Ministry of Government Legislation (MOGL) announced on May 8, 2026, the final successful candidates for its specialized fixed-term civil servant positions. These roles, designated as Grade ‘Na’ within the Korean civil service system, were filled through a competitive career-based examination process, following a previous MOGL recruitment notice (No. 2026-49) issued on March 31, 2026.

Specialized fixed-term civil servants (전문임기제 공무원) in Korea are government employees hired for a specific period to work on particular projects or to leverage specialized expertise. Unlike general civil servants who typically undergo broad public examinations, these positions target professionals with relevant career experience. This system allows government ministries, such as the MOGL, to bring in highly skilled individuals for targeted needs, particularly in emerging fields.

The attached documents from the MOGL indicate that some of these Grade ‘Na’ positions required expertise in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, reflecting the government’s push for digital transformation and advanced capabilities within its legislative framework. This initiative aims to integrate cutting-edge technology into the legislative process.

The official announcement, made by the Minister of Government Legislation, directs all successful candidates to refer to the attached files for the comprehensive list of names and detailed instructions regarding required submission documents. While the notice itself does not list individual names or specific document deadlines, it emphasizes the importance for candidates to consult the supplementary materials for the next steps in their appointment process.

For any inquiries regarding this announcement or the submission procedures, successful candidates may contact the MOGL’s Operations Support Division. Ms. Ha Jeong-yoon is the designated contact person and can be reached at 044-200-6530.
