China News Service, Beijing, October 26 (Reporter Li Jingtong) The registration and certification, online registration and qualification review of civil servants recruited for the 2027 examination of central agencies and their directly affiliated agencies will end at 18:00 on October 23, 18:00 on October 24, and 18:00 on October 26, 2026 respectively.
As of 18:00 on October 23, 4.23 million people had registered and certified, 3.935 million people had registered online as of 18:00 on October 24, and 3.45 million people had passed the employer qualification review as of 18:00 on October 26. The ratio of the number of people who passed the qualification review to the number of recruitment plans was about 97:1.
The National Civil Service Bureau reminds candidates that their registration must be confirmed before they can take the exam. Candidates who pass the qualification review can log in to the "Special Website for Civil Servants Recruited for the 2027 Examination of Central Agencies and Their Directly Affiliated Agencies" from November 1 to November 6 to confirm their registration and pay, and then print their admission tickets and take the exam within the specified time.
Recruitment tilts towards fresh graduates and grassroots
It is planned to recruit a total of 35,700 people for the national examination in 2027, a decrease of about 2,400 people from the previous year.
According to the website of the National Civil Service Bureau, this recruitment has 26,900 plans to be supplemented to directly affiliated institutions at the county (district) level and below. At the same time, this recruitment continues to favor fresh graduates. Institutions at the municipal (prefectural) level and below directly under the central government mainly recruit fresh college graduates and have set up 24,600 plans. In addition, this national examination recruitment has more than 3,000 planned targeted recruitment service grassroots project personnel and retired soldiers who have served in the military for more than 5 years as college graduates.
Zhuang Deshui, deputy director of the Public Policy Research Center of Peking University, told a reporter from China News Service that grassroots governance is the cornerstone of national governance, and the quality and level of grassroots civil servants are directly related to the image of the party and the government. "The positions in the national examination are tilted towards the grassroots. On the one hand, it is conducive to improving the efficiency of grassroots governance. On the other hand, it is also conducive to the training of cadres and the establishment of a strong grassroots civil servant team."
Pay attention to this new change
The 2027 National Examination has adjusted the entrance time requirements for the examination, making it clear that candidates will not be allowed to enter the examination room 15 minutes after the start of the examination. In other words, the admission deadline has been reduced from 30 minutes to 15 minutes after the previous exam started. Candidates need to arrange travel in advance to leave sufficient time for identity verification and admission.
In addition, there is another feature of the 2027 national examination registration: cracking down on and preventing the fraud of "public examination girding".
In the previous registration stage, this national examination added real-name and real-person certification. Applicants need to log in to the special website and complete the registration within the specified time, and then conduct real-name authentication through electronic social security cards, etc. before they can register and submit their application.
Zhuang Deshui said that the so-called "public examination recruitment" refers to the concentrated application for the same position by many people, but the purpose is to ensure that a specific person can be admitted, and others are just "accompanying the examination" to artificially create false registration enthusiasm and discourage other applicants.
"This kind of behavior seems to take advantage of the rules, but in fact it seriously undermines the recruitment principles of 'openness, equality, competition, and merit-based selection.'" Yi Dinghong, an expert from the Huatu Education Research Institute, said that the "public examination roundup" fraud not only blocks truly capable candidates from opportunities, but also damages the social credibility of the civil service examination.
