The exam was held at the Ada Byron Building on the Río Ebro Campus and consisted of a 100-question multiple-choice test. A total of 526 people had registered for the recruitment process, coordinated by the Government of Aragon.

Candidates who pass this first test will continue in the recruitment process, which will run until the end of November and also includes physical, psychometric and practical tests.

43 POSTS ACROSS 24 MUNICIPALITIES

The recruitment process offers 15 posts in Huesca province, 11 in Teruel and a further 17 in Zaragoza. In Huesca, the posts are available in Barbastro, Benasque, Binéfar, Fraga, Graus, Jaca, Monzón, Sabiñánigo, Sallent de Gállego and Sariñena. In Teruel province, positions are offered in Alcañiz, Alcorisa, Andorra and Calamocha. Zaragoza province, meanwhile, accounts for posts in Alagón, Calatayud, Daroca, Ejea de los Caballeros, Gallur, La Puebla de Alfindén, Mallén, Pedrola, Tarazona and Zuera.

In addition, the 24 town councils participating in the process may add new posts through an addendum to the agreement before the selection board publishes the list of people who passed the competitive examination phase.

A SINGLE COMPETITIVE EXAM FOR SEVERAL MUNICIPALITIES

The unified recruitment process allows applicants to apply for posts in different towns without having to take a separate exam for each local council.

This formula was introduced in Aragon for the first time in 2025 and also makes it easier for participating municipalities to manage recruitment drives, as they centralize part of the selection process.

Information on the various stages, decisions and updates concerning the recruitment process can be found on the website of the Aragonese Academy of Local Police, in the section devoted to the unified recruitment process.
