Why the Earthquake Bureau has become the new favorite of the "National Civil Service Examination"

October 20th is the sixth day of online registration for the "National Examination". The usually unpopular Earthquake Bureau has unexpectedly become the new favorite among candidates this year. The Chongqing Earthquake Bureau has a position that only recruits one person. The number of people who passed the review last night reached 950! The supply and demand ratio of seismological bureaus in Shanxi, Hubei and other places has also exceeded 100:1.

According to the practice of civil servant recruitment registration in previous years, the earthquake department has always been an "unpopular" that candidates are not keen on. In the "unpopular rankings" of civil servant recruitment over the years, the Earthquake Bureau has always been at the top. When the recruitment for national civil servants ended in 2007, the seismological bureau was indifferent all the way from the "local" to the "central" seismological bureau. There are no applicants for the position of "Chief Staff Member and below" in the Forecasting Division of the Monitoring and Forecasting Department of the China Earthquake Administration. The bureau's total planned recruitment number is 8 people, but the number of applicants is only 110. The seismological bureaus of Zhejiang, Anhui, Shandong and other provinces have experienced embarrassing "unpopular" situations where only a few people applied for a position or no one applied for it. Why has the Earthquake Bureau, which has always been looked down upon, become the “new favorite” among candidates this year? The reason is worth pondering.

First of all, a more rational thinking about taking exams affects the behavior of candidates. According to convention, the earthquake department has always been an "unpopular" candidate for civil service recruitment. As the competition for civil service recruitment becomes increasingly fierce, the competition for popular positions and occupations will become even more intense. Therefore, the entry point should be focused on the previously unpopular recruitment positions. , is currently the most scientific choice.

Secondly, the fact that the earthquake department has become the “new favorite” is directly related to the impact of this year’s Wenchuan earthquake in Sichuan. An unprecedented disaster not only serves as a warning to people, but also exposes society's weakness in scientific and technological research to prevent natural disasters. It also reflects the current lack of talents in earthquake and other professional departments and the great significance of work. In this case, going to a place that best reflects personal role and meaning of life has become the first choice for young people to take exams, test big networks, and collect career opportunities and space. This phenomenon not only reflects the idealization tendency and intentional characteristics of young college students and youth groups in employment, but also reflects the return of the youth group's sense of social responsibility and their broad mind to help the world and the common people.

Therefore, the seismic department has changed from being unpopular to the "new favorite". Although this is a new trend in employment concepts, it reveals other more positive directions behind it. We should pay enough attention to this phenomenon and provide more active guidance and creative support in terms of employment methods, employment conditions, employment space, etc., to encourage these unpopular jobs.

Employees can have better development space and advancement opportunities, so that these unpopular positions can retain talents.
