Administrative Staff (Tenured)

Test Prep Support
Over the past 15 years, the Faculty of Sciences has expanded its support for staff members as they prepare for competitive exams.
Since September 2024, this support has been formalized and organized by the GAC division and members of the component’s management team.
Any contract employee who wishes to take a competitive exam may contact the GAC unit— fds.gestionrh@umontpellier.fr —and submit this completed questionnaire to request an individual counseling interview.
This interview will allow the officer to plan their study schedule and ask any questions they may have about the various exams.
Two preparation phases are then implemented: the review phase and the oral exam preparation phase.
If the officer requests it, one or, if possible, two mock oral exams will be organized with available members of management.
If the number of applications is too high, priority will be given to contract employees whose contracts are nearing the end of their renewal period , in accordance with the UM system for managing contract staff.
Bonus leave
If you are a tenured civil servantfrom an overseas territory whois assigned to mainland France, you may be eligible, under certain conditions, for extended leave every two years to return to your home territory.
