Why break the "35-year-old threshold"?

In recent years, the civil service examination has been heating up continuously. This year, there have been some changes in the civil service examination. According to the incomplete statistics of the media, in recent years, about 1 provinces have adjusted the age of some posts to below 4 years old, which also means that the "35-year-old threshold" in the provincial civil service examination is gradually being broken. Tianjin Civil Servant Recruitment Announcement In response to this phenomenon, the majority of netizens have expressed their support and praise.

As early as 221, at the two sessions of the National People's Congress, Jiang Shengnan, a representative of the National People's Congress and a screenwriter, put forward a proposal to cancel the age limit for national civil servants to apply for examinations under 35. At that time, the proposal caused a heated discussion in the public opinion field. Indeed, 35 years old was originally a golden age for a person's career journey, and the "35-year-old threshold" in the civil service examination did make some people lose opportunities. No matter what age or position, the most important criterion should be people's ability and serious work attitude. Breaking the "35-year-old threshold" has more important significance, that is, as an important recruitment examination, the provincial examination for civil servants has the role of a weather vane, which can lead the change of social values and help improve the speed and efficiency of eliminating age discrimination in the workplace.

At present, all kinds of job advertisements in the market often draw a red line of "under 35 years old". Many people start their future career life once they reach the 35-year-old threshold. The "35-year-old threshold" has become a social phenomenon, and the "35-year-old workplace anxiety disorder" is gradually spreading. In fact, in 211, the average years of education of the working-age population in China was 7.5 years. By 219, it has increased to 1.7. In this context, if employment and recruitment stick to the "35-year-old threshold" unchanged, it will only aggravate the squeeze on employment vitality and aggravate the general anxiety of society. China is gradually entering the aging stage, which also means that we can no longer simply rely on the demographic dividend to develop the economy, and we must build a more open view of employment and age to better meet the human resources needs of the whole society. Therefore, the "35-year-old threshold" has indeed become out of date. Of course, we can't narrowly understand breaking the "35-year-old threshold" as "no longer setting a limit on age", and we can't mistakenly think that this is a "special care" for middle-aged people. It is important to take this as a breakthrough, carry out all-round response and linkage, dilute the age discrimination and age anxiety of society as a whole, and optimize the talent evaluation system. The age limit for civil servants to apply for exams undoubtedly plays an important guiding role in the "age view" of society and enterprises.

nowadays, the relaxation of the age limit for civil servants to apply for exams has set an example for the whole society, and all walks of life should gradually dilute and abandon the old concept of "35-year-old threshold" and optimize and adjust various age requirements. In any case, 35 years old is not "old", it is the age of vigorous and energetic, which should become the knowledge of the whole society.
