When Are İŞKUR TYP Recruitments Held?
For citizens without employment or income, İŞKUR TYP provides a temporary source of work. Many people wonder when recruitments for İŞKUR TYP positions will begin each year.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in some years schools were closed for in-person education and restrictions were placed on personnel recruitment; not all job categories were opened for hiring.
When the pandemic is under control and schools reopen for face-to-face education, İŞKUR TYP projects will be restarted by the Ministry of National Education. Recruitment notices will be published on the Ministry’s website when the program resumes.
How to Get an İŞKUR TYP Number?
Applicants are required to provide an İŞKUR TYP number when applying to positions. Many people do not know what the TYP number is or how to obtain it.

- Go to the esube.iskur.gov.tr website.
- Click the Job Seeker section to log in.
- From the top menu on the page, select Online Transactions.
- Click the SEARCH button on the screen that opens.
- TYP project announcements will appear.
- If you SELECT one of the İŞKUR TYP projects, the number shown under the selection is your İŞKUR TYP number.
- Click the displayed TYP number to proceed with your application.
If you want to review previously opened projects without applying immediately, you can browse job categories without entering a TYP number.
How Much Are İŞKUR TYP Salaries?
The TYP project, operated within İŞKUR under the Ministry of Family, Labor and Social Services, offers temporary, insured work for unemployed people. Participants work in open job categories for up to nine months under the program.
Because activities were interrupted in some years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, current TYP salary amounts may vary. In 2020, monthly payments for TYP participants were reported as 2,324 TL. Salaries depend on working hours and duration within the project.
When Are İŞKUR TYP Salaries Paid?
Participants who start working after their TYP application is approved often ask when they will receive their salary. İŞKUR does not set a single fixed pay date for TYP; payment timing varies based on application dates and distribution, so there is no universally fixed payday.
What Is the İŞKUR TYP Student Program?
Within İŞKUR, the student TYP program allows students enrolled in Open Education or Open High School to participate. Full-time (formal) university and high school students are not eligible for the TYP program, but open education students may work in TYP positions for up to nine months.
For students who are enrolled in formal university education and are over 18, İŞKUR has developed the Student Work Program.
The Student Work Program offers formal university students three-month work placements in projects such as:
- Nature Conservation
- Restoration, Protection, and Promotion of Cultural Heritage
- Organization and Maintenance of Libraries
- Support for Public Cultural and Social Services
Formal university students can work in these projects for three months. Graduate and doctoral students are not eligible, while students at private universities can apply.
Students who work in the Student Work Program do not have their government student grants (KYK bursary) cut; they receive payment for their work while retaining their grant.
The Student Work Program is designed to help students gain job experience in relevant fields while contributing to public benefit projects.
Students participating in three-month placements under the Student Work Program:
- Work up to 8 hours per day.
- Have work schedules covering three days per week.
- Can take up to 5 days of unpaid leave.
- Are paid for days actually worked.
- The daily work payment for students has been arranged at 81.51 TL.
What Is the İŞKUR TYP Circular?
Many people wonder about the purpose and services of the İŞKUR TYP project. The aims and mission of the İŞKUR TYP program include:
- Providing work opportunities in regions with high unemployment, especially for people who have been jobless for long periods.
- Preventing the loss of work habits and discipline that can occur during long unemployment.
- Helping workers quickly readapt to the workplace when they return to employment.
- Supporting individuals financially so they can close income gaps caused by unemployment.
- Increasing employment in areas where unemployment is widespread.
- Allowing unemployed people to work under employment discipline for nine months while receiving pay and contributing to the community.
The circular’s content and details about what İŞKUR TYP is, how to apply, and its requirements are important for applicants to review carefully before applying.
How Are İŞKUR TYP Personnel Selected?
There are three selection methods used by İŞKUR when recruiting personnel for the TYP program:
- Public notary lottery
- List method
- Combination: 80% notary lottery and 20% list method
Recruitments are divided into 1st List and 2nd List categories. The 1st List includes groups considered disadvantaged in employment.
Those included in the 1st List are:
- Women
- People with disabilities
- People over 35
- Individuals not considered disabled due to counter-terror operations
- Former convicts
Applicants on the 1st List are prioritized and will be selected before the 2nd List applicants. Placement of 2nd List applicants will not begin until 1st List placements are completed.
This article covered what İŞKUR TYP is, how to apply, and the eligibility requirements. The İŞKUR TYP project offers a nine-month temporary employment opportunity designed to help long-term unemployed individuals earn income, regain workplace discipline, and serve the public interest, while being insured during their employment.
Through the İŞKUR TYP program, participants both contribute to community-beneficial projects and receive compensation. The nine-month insured employment period is a key benefit of the program.
