Where things stand

As of 5 November 2026, notices relayed by the press announce 2,094 posts across six regions, with applications due by 19 November and examinations on 22 November. Direct access to the ministry portal did not allow verification of all notices; these are not completed recruitments.

The announced allocation is 594 posts in Oriental, 550 in Beni Mellal-Khenifra, 500 in Marrakech-Safi, 300 in Guelmim-Oued Noun, 100 in Draa-Tafilalet and 50 in Dakhla-Oued Ed-Dahab.

Examinations are scheduled for 22 November. Required specialties and documents depend on the regional notice. Posts offered through competitive examinations are not staff already recruited or assigned.

The texts can be read in reproductions by specialist websites; direct access to the ministry platform did not allow verification of every document. Applicants should therefore check the relevant regional notice for the applicable terms.

A first round covering 3,000 posts is expected in November, provisionally on 22 November. A second round of the same size is expected during the second week of February 2027.

Recruitment would cover regional health directorates and territorial health groups. Allocations by region and specialty still need to be discussed. As official notices had not yet been published in the reporting consulted, these dates do not constitute a final application timetable.
