[법률저널=이상연 기자] With the goal of preventing the spread of Corona 19 and the safety of test takers as the top priority, the ’21 National Public Officials Level 5 Public Loan and Diplomat Candidate Selection Test will be held.
It is a policy to allow test takers who have been confirmed to be tested under strict quarantine management if they wish to take the test.
The Ministry of Human Resources Development (Director Seo-jong Hwang) closely consulted with related agencies based on last year’s test and quarantine management experience to prepare more strengthened quarantine measures, and conducted the first examination for the selection of 5th grade public loans and diplomatic candidates on March 6 (Sat). It said on the 17th.
As a result of receiving the application form on the 5th to 7th, 15,066 people applied for a total of 348 people, showing an average competition rate of 43.3 to 1.
Compared to last year’s selection of 370 people, 12,595 people applied, 2471 people (19.6%) increased, and competition rate increased. Looking at the recent competition rate, this year’s competition rate jumped from 41.1:1 in 2017 → 37.3:1 in ’18 → 36.4:1 in ’19 → 34:1 in ’20 → 43.3:1 in ’21.
As such, the reason why the competition rate has risen significantly this year seems to have been supported by 7th grade public recruitment candidates. Starting this year, the first written test of the 7th grade public loan has been replaced by the PSAT.
The competition rate for each recruitment group was 48.2 to 1 in the 5th-level administrative group, 30.1 to 1 in the 5th-level technical group, and 41.8 to 1 for diplomatic candidates.
As for the detailed recruitment unit, 359 people applied for 2 immigration officers, showing the highest competition rate of 179.5:1. General administration (nationwide) also rose from 36.8 to 1 to 52.4 to 1, and the finance and economics rose from 23.3 to 1 to 29.5 to 1. General diplomacy jumped from 28.8 to 1 to 41.8 to 1.
The average age of the recipients was 28, a slight increase from last year (27.7 years old). By age, 4,306 people (28.6%) aged 20-24, 6,555 (43.5%) aged 25-29, 3,417 (22.7%) aged 30-39, 709 (4.7%) aged 40-49, and over 50 There were 79 (0.5%).
The number of female receptionists was 46%, a slight increase from last year (41.2%).
The first exam will be conducted in five regions nationwide (Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Gwangju, and Daejeon), and successful candidates will be on April 7 (Wed)’Cyber National Examination Center (https://www.gosi.kr). It is announced through’.
On the other hand, the main contents of the test and quarantine measures implemented by the HRD in consultation with the quarantine authorities are as follows.
First, the Human Resources Office is planning to confirm whether all examinees are confirmed or self-isolate, and the facts of entry and exit, with the cooperation of the quarantine authorities and related organizations.
A self-reporting system (accessible at the Cyber National Examination Center) is also expanded and operated, allowing examinees to report their health status or immigration history on their own.
The period of operation of the self-report system for test takers, which showed significant quarantine effects last year, will be extended from one week to two weeks, and expanded and operated so that test workers such as supervisors can also use it.
If the applicant wishes to take the test, even if it has been confirmed, it will be allowed to apply under strict quarantine management.
The Human Resources Office plans to apply at a hospital or life treatment center designated by the quarantine authority for candidates who have been confirmed to be eligible for the test by the attending physician according to the test and quarantine guidelines of the quarantine authority.
In addition, a test manager composed of personnel from the human resources department is dispatched to the relevant facility to directly manage and supervise the entire test process while wearing full body protection.
In the case of self-quarantine, as in last year, after consultation with the quarantine authorities, measures will be taken so that they can apply at a separate location.
If a candidate who intends to take this exam is confirmed or judged to be self-quarantine, they must immediately report it to the human resources office and local health center so that they can take the exam according to the instructions.
On the other hand, the Ministry of Human Resources (HR) announced that it plans to shorten and operate the operation time of this year’s level 5 public loan and the first round of diplomatic candidate selection by about 60 minutes.
In order to minimize contact between examinees, the test operation time will be shortened by efficiently conducting the training and preparation time for examinees, and the test time itself is the same as before.
Although the number of applicants has increased from the previous year, the number of students per exam room is operated to 15 or less, which is significantly reduced from 25 to 30 in the normal year.
As a measure to secure a safe distance of 1.5m or more between examinees, nine more test sites were also secured compared to the previous year.
On the day of the test, the main entrance of the test site is unified, and a fever test is conducted for all visitors, so that candidates who show suspicious symptoms will take the test in a separate preliminary test room.
While it is mandatory to wear a mask in the test site, we are preparing to create a safe test environment by complying with the quarantine guidelines such as sufficient distance, hand hygiene, ventilation, and disinfection.
Post-management measures were also prepared for examinees and test supervisors. On the day of the test, test takers who showed fever or respiratory symptoms will continue to check and observe for abnormal health conditions for two weeks.
In particular, the laboratory supervisors who have taken the test will be required to undergo diagnostic tests within one day after the test and to check their health status for two weeks.
Hwang Seo-jong, head of the personnel affairs department, said, “According to the recent decision of the Constitutional Court and the decision of the entire government, we have decided to provide test opportunities to confirmed patients. We will make every effort to conduct the test by establishing thorough quarantine measures for the safety of examinees and the prevention of corona 19 infection. I said.
In addition, he said to the candidates, “Please pay attention to health management, such as strict social distancing and quarantine rules.”
On the other hand, the 1st PSAT National Mock Test, which is held on the 20th two weeks before the 1st test of the 2021 level 5 public loans, diplomatic candidates, and local talent level 7 trainees, is the main exam by 1,500 people nationwide. We unfold a hot heat battle towards
In particular, the first round of this final is the last round of the 13th scholarship selection, so fierce competition is expected to become the main character of the scholarship.
One examinee said, “Rather than being greedy about the amount of scholarship itself, I see that most of the scholarships pass the final year, and I try my best to challenge the scholarship award every round to gain confidence.”
Another examinee said, “I am getting more greedy for scholarships because my grades are better than I expected in the last scholarship round,” and said, “I want to catch both rabbits, practice practice and scholarships in the remaining rounds.”
A total of 16 million won will be awarded to scholarship students selected for the 13th term this year. Five students are selected with the support of the Sarangsaem Foundation, a legal public interest foundation, and a scholarship worth 1 million won is awarded. Those who wish to receive the study scholarship must submit the relevant documents by March 16th.
In addition, a total of 11 million won scholarships are provided to scholarships with excellent grades for those with excellent grades. Scholarships with excellent grades are selected in the order of grades from those who have taken all the national mock exams from the 4th to the 1st final, and a scholarship of 2 million won will be awarded to the first prize in the future. A scholarship of 1.5 million won each for the hope award (2 people) and 500,000 won each for the talent award (10 people) is provided. Here, for the first time this year, a scholarship to encourage students will receive 500,000 won each.
The legal journal pays all of the scholarship’s tax and utility fees (22%), so the amount of the scholarship is delivered to the winners.
The first scholarship to encourage successful applicants this year is a donation activity at the level of Pro Bono, with the desire to give back to candidates who received the help of the legal journal PSAT. Scholarships are voluntarily donated to legal journals by successful applicants and are anonymous according to the will of the contributor.
Both the youngest successful candidates for two consecutive years in 2019 and 2020 were recipients of the Legal Journal Scholarship. One of the youngest successful candidates in 2019 was Ji-seok Yang, who passed the re-employment job. Yang was selected as the 9th scholarship student in the legal journal. He received the’Talent Award’ in 6th place in the PSAT National Mock Test.
Yang said, “The law journal PSAT was of great help in that it was possible to practice practical exercises above all else,” and said, “I think I liked the most because the environment was almost the same as the actual test site.” He added, “I have been taking the test every year for the third year, and I think the quality of the data interpretation has improved considerably,” he said. “It was also very good that I could feel the’reality’.”
21-year-old Lee Woo-hyuk is the youngest person to win the title of the youngest in all five-level public loans in 2020. Lee, who passed the rescheduled job called’the flower of administrative examination’, was selected as the 11th scholarship student of the Legal Journal. Mr. Lee is ranked 4th and is the highest scorer among the’Talent Awards’.
Regarding the legal journal PSAT, he said, “In the case of linguistic logic, I felt that the composition of the fingerprint and the paper was very similar to that of the previous one.” “It is a little difficult in the case of data interpretation and situation judgment, so it is difficult to calmly solve any problem without embarrassment at the test site. I think it will be helpful in the process,” he cited the strengths of the legal journal PSAT.
Another winner, Mr. Kim, said, “Because it is impossible to predict the difficulty level of each exam in practice, it is very helpful to have the experience of coping with the various difficulties encountered in practice with the PSAT, a legal journal held in the same environment as the actual exam. I think it will be.”
With the main exam approaching close on the 20th, the finishing strategy is now the’practice mode’. The core of the pass strategy is to maximize the sense of practice and complement the weak areas.
In particular, because PSAT is a test that is greatly affected by the condition of the test day, test takers generally agree that it is essential to practice solving problems in the same environment as the actual test.
This is because it is possible to maximize actual power in any situation by repeating problem solving practice in the same environment as the actual test site in various test sites.
In this respect, the national mock test, in which a small number of non-representative populations of the sample gather, does not mean much. This is not only because there is no objectivity to make a reference as’their own league’, but also because they cannot actually measure their skills or position.
The reason why the vast majority of candidates are concentrating on the PSAT National Mock Test in the Legal Journal is that it can be a standard that can be judged objectively in a state where applicants from all over the country are evenly distributed.
Also, PSAT is a fight against time. It is a test that requires a strategy to solve problems because it is virtually impossible to solve all problems within 90 minutes. Candidates who have too little time to solve problems can secure time through repetitive problem solving. You can further improve your time use skills through various problem solving in the national practice test.
Through the actual national practice test, you can also identify and supplement your objective position or weakness. In particular, practical practice provides an opportunity to identify the types of problems that are often wrong or have frequent mistakes, and minimize one’s weaknesses.
For this reason, successful candidates are also asked to experience practical practice. When the exam is imminent, it is necessary to have a strategy to deal with various problems as much as possible, such as a national mock exam. The most effective way to embody the solution method is to encounter new problems every day through the national mock exam.
For the final practice, not only individual applicants but also college exam classes will participate in the PSAT aptitude test in the legal journal to enhance their sense of practice.
In the case of Seoul on the 20th, the 1st final will be held at ▲Samsung High School and actual test sites ▲Songpa Middle School ▲Seongnae Middle School ▲Ogeumjung ▲Eonnam High School, etc.
The provinces are also implemented in △Busan △Daegu △Daejeon △Gwangju △Jeonju at the same time. Among the local test centers, the heat of Daejeon and Busan is hot. In particular, in Daejeon, the enthusiasm of candidates is overflowing to the extent that all of the rented classrooms are closed.
