Main Ideas and Lessons

1. Importance of Choosing the Right Job Series

Different job series have distinct exam subjects, study methods, and job duties.
Selecting the right series affects both study efficiency and long-term career satisfaction.

2. Three Key Factors to Consider When Choosing a Job Series

Your Academic Major

Align your job series with your major for an advantage (e.g., statistics majors apply for statistics-related jobs, law majors for civil service law).
Relevant certifications can add up to 5% extra points.

Your Aptitude and Personality

Consider what kind of work environment suits you (active roles like security vs. quiet office jobs).
Personality types (e.g., MBTI) can guide suitable job series choices:
- Introverts might prefer national civil service roles.
- Extroverts might prefer local government positions.

Available Study Time

High competition jobs require longer preparation (sometimes over two years).
If time is limited, prioritize jobs with lower cutoff scores over personal job satisfaction.
If you can invest more time, prioritize job satisfaction.

4. Local Government Job Difficulty and Regional Variations

General Administration and Education Administration have similar cutoff scores.
Higher cutoff scores in big cities (Seoul, Daejeon, Daegu, Busan) compared to provincial areas.
Region C areas have higher cutoff scores than military regions.
Social Welfare averages around 82 points.
Civil Engineering and Architecture have lower cutoff scores due to lower competition and subject difficulty.

5. Strategic Advice for Applicants

If overwhelmed by too many job titles, choose General Administrative positions because they:
- Have the most openings.
- Offer predictable selection chances.
- Are less risky compared to minority or specialized job series that might not be offered every year.
Applying to less populated regions with lower cutoff scores can increase your chances of passing quickly.
Residency relocation may be necessary for regional strategies.
You can take the civil service exam multiple times a year:
- Up to 4 times for various positions.
- 5 times if also applying for 7th-grade exams.
General administrative positions have abundant study materials and instructors but also fierce competition.

6. Final Thought

Your choice of job series affects your career for 30+ years.
Many quit because they chose the wrong series.
Carefully consider your major, personality, and available study time before deciding.

Methodology / Instructions for Choosing a Job Series

Assess Your Academic Background Match your major to the related job series and utilize any relevant certifications for bonus points.
Evaluate Your Personality and Work Preferences Decide if you prefer active or office-based roles and consider personality tests (e.g., MBTI) for guidance.
Consider Your Available Preparation Time
- If you have ample time (>2 years), aim for high-satisfaction but competitive jobs.
- If time is limited, prioritize jobs with lower cutoff scores.
Research Competition and Cutoff Scores Use recent cutoff scores and competition rates to gauge difficulty. Prefer general administrative roles for stability and predictability.
Plan Your Application Strategy
- Consider applying to less competitive regions to increase chances.
- Be prepared to relocate if necessary.
- Take advantage of multiple exam opportunities per year.
Make a Long-Term Career Decision Choose a series you can commit to for decades. Avoid switching series after passing to prevent career dissatisfaction.
