Ministry of Magic
The Ministry of Magic is the largest wizarding employment center in all of Britain and has some of the most varying qualifications as a result. There are many entry level positions available for recent Hogwarts graduates, but most positions require application processes, additional examinations and then specialized training programs that have to be passed in a certain capacity in order to be approved.
Many new Hogwarts graduates are offered positions of clerical and scribal duty in various departments of the Ministry, which is an excellent way to get one’s feet in the door and begin networking within the Ministry, establishing contacts and getting your name known by various departments. Generally, if one is qualified for a position elsewhere and has networked themselves properly, the Ministry will pay for and provide the additional training necessary for certain promotions.
Working within the Ministry is a prestigious line of work and is one where positions are constantly changing. This guide provides a complete breakdown of all departments and subdivisions, as well as the qualifications expected for that line of work.
Generally speaking, in clerical positions, Senior representatives have been with that section of the Ministry for two or more years, while Junior representatives tend to be new graduates of Hogwarts. Most secretarial positions are available to new graduates as well, unless otherwise stated.

Please note the following:
Heads of Departments make an additional 250 galleons per month.
Secretaries make 1,100 galleons per month.
Junior Secretaries make 1,000 galleons per month.
Minister for Magic and Supporting Staff
Department of Magical Law Enforcement
Due to holes littering the entire department after the war, a lot of the necessary hoops and requirements for getting into the Aurors, Hit Wizards, and Investigations department have been dropped or changed to accommodate the current need for new blood. All departments have either those who are training or those still left over from the war. If making a character that's been in the department since before the war, please contact a staff member for necessary information when creating your character.

Auror Office
Though previously, Auror recruits had to undergo a rigorous testing and training process to be considered for the real job, Kingsley Shacklebolt has recently passed executive orders to reform the way Aurors are being selected due to the massive shortage and overall disorganization of the department. N.E.W.T's are no longer required to enter the training program, and all veterans from the Second Wizarding War who fought on the side of the Order are excused from the extensive application process into the pool.
For all other applicants, they are currently given an extensive application form that is essentially a mixture between an examination and an interview. Should the application be deemed acceptable, the aspiring individual will be mailed a date for testing. On this date, a written competency examination will take place, followed by a physical aptitude test. If both are passed, the applicant is then forwarded to the final screening process of a verbal interview.
Once these initial examinations have taken place, the Head of Magical Law Enforcement as well as the Head Auror will review the successful applicants and choose those they feel would fit best with the team in the long run. After which, those chosen are sent to a special training program that is currently a year long.
Program courses include ‘The Decree of Secrecy And Other Laws to Uphold’, ‘Concealment and Disguise’, ‘Stealth and Tracking’, ‘Understanding Organized Crime’, ‘Countering the Dark Arts’, ‘Tactics and Strategies’, ‘Offensive Manoeuvring’ and ‘Effective Teamwork’. At least 3/4 of the training courses must be passed with a 75% or higher in order for the trainee to proceed.
Aurors are the only wizards legally authorised to use the three Unforgivable Curses. Due to the fact that Aurors have a licence to kill, coerce and torture other witches and wizards, only the most advanced students with the strongest characters will be accepted into the program. A power-hungry Auror, or an Auror with a temper problem, is a problem the Ministry has no wish to deal with. Punishments for abusing one's position as an Auror are often just as severe as punishments for Dark Arts practitioners, if not more so especially now that the war's over. All uses of the Dark Arts in a battle situation must be documented fully, and unauthorized usage of the Unforgivables in non-battle situations is an offense that can lead to termination and imprisonment.

Due to the highly dangerous nature of their job, Hit Wizards have beds on reserve in St. Mungo’s at all times, and they make five galleons more per hour than an Auror, making them the highest paid position in the Ministry, after the Minister and the Department Heads. Where the Aurors are more like the Home Office, Hit Wizards are more like S.W.A.T.

Minister for Magic and Supporting Staff
The first floor is dedicated to the currently administrating Minister of Magic and their support staff. These positions are among the highest in the governmental hierarchy, and are separate from the chain of command that runs from the Minister through the Heads of Department to the average Ministry employee. All of the Minister for Magic’s support staff are individually chosen by the Minister in office themselves, or by the current Minister’s Senior Undersecretary. Given the current status of the government, expectations for these positions have been generally loosened, but most employees at this level will be either veterans of the war or Ministry employees with a long and loyal history to the Ministry.
Office of the Minister for Magic
The highest position in the Ministry for Magic, the running Minister is the head of the wizarding world’s governing body. The position somewhat corresponds to the Prime Minister of British Muggles and generally holds the final say in all newly inputted policies, procedures and financial decisions for the Ministry.
The Minister is advised on wizarding matters by his (or her) staff members and by the other Heads of Departments. He (or she) also chairs the Wizengamot to pass Wizarding Laws, or to hear important trials, though the verdict is decided by a panel of jury, including the Minister himself.
The Minister for Magic makes 3,500 galleons per month.
Office of the Advisor to the Minister for Magic
A position set in place with the arrival of Rufus Scrimegour’s rise to office, the advisor to the Minister of Magic is a position for the succeeded Minister to take.

Whether or not this will remain a permanent liaison position for succeeded Ministers come the end of the war is unknown.
The Advisor to the Minister makes 2,850 galleons per month.
Office of the Senior Undersecretary to the Minister of Magic
The Senior Undersecretary to the Minister for Magic is a high-ranking position within the Ministry of Magic, answerable only to the Minister for Magic. Their job is to ensure that all the administrative needs within the Minister’s office are tended to, and to uphold Ministry standards and policies within the other levels. The Senior Undersecretary to the Minister for Magic can at times be sent out of the Ministry to attend to Ministry duties in other institutions, in the name of the Minister for Magic.
The Senior Undersecretary makes 2,700 galleons per month.
Office of the Junior Assistant to the Minister for Magic
The Junior Assistant to the Minister for Magic is a high-ranking position in the Ministry of Magic, whose duties are to assist the Minister for Magic and the Senior Undersecretary. Generally speaking, this position is only held by individuals who have at least five years experience working within the Ministry. Percy Weasley was offered the position by Cornelius Fudge in order to have a spy within Dumbledore’s ranks. Although this gambit ultimately failed, Percy proved himself useful enough to remain in station under Rufus Scrimegour, and after further proving his loyalties during the war, he also held his position when Shacklebolt came to power.

The Department of Mysteries is a section of the Ministry of Magic that carries out confidential research. Most of its operations are carried out in total secrecy. Few wizards within the Ministry actually know what is located within this department, though it is learned that the various mysteries of the world are studied there: these include love, space, thought, time, death, and others.
The Department of Mysteries is unique in the fact it does not have sub-divisions, precisely, and that all of its workers are known as Unspeakables because of the confidential nature of their work.
The Department of Mysteries only hires from within the Ministry, and over ninety-percent of its Unspeakables come from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement – and almost all of those from sub-divisions of the Auror division. As a result of this, it is presumed that the N.E.W.T.’s required for an Auror are also required of Unspeakables.
Unspeakables make 1,950 galleons per month.
