Gyeonggi-do to Increase Unified Recruitment for Affiliated Organizations to 3rd Round

[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Gyeonggi Province is expanding the integrated recruitment for public institutions under the province from twice a year to three times a year. In addition, the common subjects of the written exam will be reorganized based on the National Competency Standards (NCS) evaluation.

The province announced the "2020 Gyeonggi Province Public Institution Integrated Recruitment Improvement Plan (Draft)" on the 5th.

The improvement plan includes expanding the integrated recruitment, which was previously held twice a year (once in the first half and once in the second half), to three times a year to quickly fill vacancies in public institutions, and reorganizing the common subjects of the written exam, which previously consisted of English, Korean history, and general knowledge, into an NCS-based evaluation.

NCS standardizes the actual abilities (knowledge, skills, attitudes) required to perform the duties of a given occupation by industry and job type.

Accordingly, the province will conduct the written exams for the integrated recruitment of public institutions at the end of April, the end of August, and the end of November. The written exam will select five common subjects from among the ten NCS areas necessary for performing tasks in public institutions under the province.

However, the major subjects of the written exam will be taken up to two subjects per institution upon request, aligned with the recruitment job series, as before.

The province will begin the annual schedule for the 2020 Gyeonggi Province Public Institution Integrated Recruitment by inviting and selecting a specialized outsourcing agency to handle application submissions and written exams within this month.

Shim Young-rin, the public institution officer of the province, explained, "Due to the regular integrated recruitment held twice a year, public institutions have faced difficulties in immediately filling unexpected vacancies, which has hindered work progress. We expect that expanding the integrated recruitment will shorten the vacancy period by 2 to 4 months."

He added, "The NCS-based evaluation, which was previously implemented only in some institutions within the province, will now be introduced to all institutions. We expect this to be an opportunity for public institutions in the province to select talented individuals with the necessary capabilities."
