Among these, the 5th grade civil service exam, formerly called an administrative examination or foreign affairs examination, was held again today (16th). It's been delayed two and a half months, but about 10,000 people from all over the country were wearing masks as they were guided.

examinees wearing masks are sterilized with a hand sanitizer at the entrance to the building, and then tested for fever in line with the yellow markings placed at 1.5m intervals.

National government officials have been tested for grade 5 bonds at 32 high-ranking offices nationwide.

The 5th grade bond test, scheduled for February 29, was postponed once a corona patient surged in Daegu and Gyeongbuk.

[Class 5 candidates: Itaewon broke out again, and there were many people saying that I should postpone it again. I think I'd rather be glad to take the test.]

Today's test, which took place in two and a half months, took more than 9,600 tests.

Fifteen of them reported voluntarily that they had been to entertainment facilities such as the Itaewon Club, and six showed symptoms of fever, and they took the test in a preliminary preparatory lab.
The quarantine service was further strengthened, and only 15 people were seated sparingly in each test room, and over 300 civil servants were dispatched to the quarantine officers to confirm that they continued to wear masks.

[Kook Hyung-geun / Grade 5 bond candidates: It was very difficult because (last time) it was suddenly canceled. I think the government did a good job. I can't worry about it.] The

remaining 9th level written test will be held on July 11th, and the 7th level written test will be held on September 26th.
