Over 100,000 apply for army civilian posts
More than 100,000 people, most holding bachelor’s degrees or higher, applied online for army civilian posts during the October 22 to November 5 window for applications, the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) said on Sunday.
One out of every 38 candidates will be recruited, the PLA General Political Department said, with the test to be held on December 15.
This is the PLA’s first unified recruitment of army civilian personnel from the public, a move to attract talents and improve employment transparency.
The army civilian posts cover professional and technical stations, including teaching, scientific research, engineering, health, culture, sports and libraries, as well as non-professional posts such as management and logistics services.
