Mr. Nguyen Van Nam (character name has been changed) said that based on Article 13 of Decree 170/2025/ND-CP dated June 30, 2025 of the Government regulating the recruitment, use and management of civil servants, he is concerned about whether he is eligible to be considered for recruitment as a civil servant or not.
According to Mr. Nam, before July 1, 2025, he was a non-specialized worker. Previously, from October 2009 to January 2022, he was an employee at a non-business unit with intermediate qualifications, and also performed professional work and was in charge of many administrative tasks such as agency clerical work, summarizing reports, advising on plans, managing assets and monitoring health insurance. The total working time and participation in social insurance during this period was 12 years and 4 months.
After that, he continued to work as a non-specialized worker in the Office position for 3 years and 7 months. He was awarded a university degree in April 2021 and said that his university degree had been held for over 5 years, suitable for the Office position. His total working time and compulsory social insurance participation was 15 years and 7 months.
Based on the above grounds, Mr. Nguyen Van Nam requested competent authorities to answer whether he is qualified to be considered for recruitment as a civil servant in the Office position or not.
Regarding Mr. Nam's reflection and recommendation, the Ministry of Home Affairs has responded on the Electronic Information Portal.
