There is a big difference between a '''selection process''', a '''pool''' and an '''inventory/directory'''. We invite you to visit the [https://www.canada.ca/en/public-service-commission/services/orphans/site-map-staffing-assessment-services/general-pools-inventories.html Government of Canada page] for more information.
 +
 
 +
You are in a '''selection process''' when you have applied for a job and are still in the process of making assessments (screening questions, interviews, tests).
 +
 
 +
At the end of some selection processes, a '''pool''' (list) of qualified or partially qualified candidates is created to fill similar positions. Check the "Job Intent" section of the [https://www.canada.ca/en/services/jobs/opportunities/government.html GC Jobs] advertisements to validate whether or not a pool has been created. This means that you have demonstrated during the selection process that you meet the essential qualifications and competencies as defined in the Statement of Merit Criteria (essential qualifications, skills, conditions of employment, etc.).

You may be in a '''pool''' when you have completed all steps of a selection process but are not the nominated/selected candidate for the position. This means that you are qualified for the given group and level. You have demonstrated during the selection process that you meet the qualifications of the Statement of Merit Criteria (essential qualifications, competencies, conditions of employment, etc.). The advantage of being qualified in a pool is that you can network to find a job and the hiring process is faster since you have already demonstrated that you meet the statement of merit criteria.

The advantage of being qualified in a '''pool''' is that you can now network your way into a job. The hiring process is generally faster since you have already demonstrated that you meet the essential qualifications outlined in the Statement of Merit Criteria. We encourage you to consider the following networking opportunities:
 +
 
 +
* Facebook Groups (GoC - |...| Informal)
 +
* Network on LinkedIn
 +
* Network of contacts
 +
* Inventories and directories on GC Jobs
 +
 
 +
As for '''inventories/directories''', they are generally intended to help you network to find a job in a non-advertised way (without applying to a process). By being part of an inventory/directory, you are on a list that does not necessarily qualify you.
 +
 
 +
We encourage you to consult the [[Federal Youth Network/Home ENG/Resources|career development resources]] of the Federal Youth Network (FYN).
