Open recruitment more common in China's public institutions
Open recruitment has been carried out in most Chinese public institutions as a method of filling posts, a government spokesman said on Friday.
The process of boosting open recruitment in government-sponsored institutions began in 2006, said Yin Chengji, spokesman for the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.
Public institutions, including schools, research institutions, hospitals and publishing houses, are the backbone of China's public service system.
Yin said the ministry has also been working to standardize the way posts are managed, with 145 out of 157 public institutions under the central government having standardized such management.
The ministry will make more efforts to enhance and standardize open recruiting this year, as well as inspect recruitment efforts in public institutions in cooperation with the Organization Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, Yin said.
In addition, the ministry is considering creating regulations to encourage open recruitment in different sectors.
