Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) Pre-Employment Tests

Officer positions at the Canadian Food Inspection Agency often require candidates to take an assessment test. The most common assessment, depending on the position you apply for, is a Situational Judgment Test (for most of the positions) or a leadership test (for executive positions). JobTestPrep offers you a unique preparation for these tests, including practice tests, score reports, and study guides, ensuring you will arrive prepared and confident on test day.

The CFIA’s top priority is risk reduction with regard to food safety. Together with industry, consumers, and federal, provincial and municipal organizations, the CFIA continuously works hard in order to protect the Canadian people from preventable food-related health risks as well as diseases that can be transmitted from animals to humans.

The CFIA is constantly improving its animal health and plant resources program designs and delivery to manage and minimize risks. This is important, as the economic success of the Canadian agriculture relies on a base of healthy and sustainable plant and animal resources. Furthermore, the CFIA works extensively to protect the environment from invasive animal and plant diseases and plant pests.

The CFIA employs approximately 7,000 individuals who work towards improving the health and welfare of the Canadian people. There are several career opportunities available among various fields within the CFIA. Such opportunities include:
