Findings and conclusion: Reform in recruitment procedures the Qajar era; although the first national employment law in Iran didn’t pass through until 1301 H (1922).

The employment law, in second Pahlavi era, underwent some changes wherein it was tried to pave the way for entering the Experienced and competent employees into the administrative system, by determining the test as measure for employment, giving credit to education as a principle, and employing agencies to monitor the process; and thus play a decisive role in supplying the human resources for the administrative system.
