VietNamNet Bridge – Hanoi has stated that the state agencies in
the city always keep the doors open to welcome the excellent university
graduates who come first at the finals. However, most graduates keep
indifferent to the invitation.
Deputy Director of the Hanoi
Department for Interior Affairs Nguyen Thi Vinh has affirmed that all the
valedictorians this year would be admitted to the state agencies in Hanoi
without having to attend the civil service examination.
The statement was made at the
meeting with 275 valedictorians and 107 most excellent graduates held in Hanoi
some days ago. This is for the 10th consecutive year Hanoi runs the
valedictorian commendation program.
Of the 107 gloried
valedictorians, five had the highest achievements from both the university
entrance exams and the finals; one is disabled and one foreign student. Hanoi
has gloried 1080 valedictorians over the last 10 years.
The program aims to choose the
best civil servants for the city, while creating most favorable conditions for
the talented people to show their ability and devote themselves to the city’s
development.
However, the results of the
program prove to be modest. By 2010, Hanoi had gloried 861 valedictorians,
while only 57, or 10 percent, had accepted to work at the state agencies in
Hanoi, even though the agencies always keep the doors open to welcome the
excellent graduates.
Especially, the city has
announced that it would still welcome excellent graduates to the branches and
divisions where there are enough officers. However, very few valedictorians
have chosen to work for Hanoi’s state agencies.
Le Su Nang, the first chair of
the Hanoi Valedictorian Club, said that the enthusiasm for work of the
valedictorians has decreased year after year because they have to struggle hard
for food and clothing.
Also according to Nang, in 2004,
three valedictorians, or 3 percent, were recruited for the local departments in
Hanoi. The figure rose to 17, or 6 percent, three years later. Especially, the
figure tends to increase significantly in recent years since the city
authorities offer better working conditions for the excellent graduates.
However, Nang does not think that
10 percent of valedictorians work for state agencies is a bad result. Not all
excellent graduates have the aspiration of working for administrative agencies,
while not all Hanoi’s agencies need more staff. In many cases, some branches
need more qualified staff in some fields, while the valedictorians finish other
majors.
In general, new graduates, who
feel excited with their learning achievements and have enthusiasm to devote to
the development of the country and the city, would be happy to work for state
agencies. However, the enthusiasm would reduce just after a few years, since
the low pay cannot ensure a normal life for the talented workers.
There have been no official
statistics which can show if there is any relation between the majors of the
excellent graduates and their jobs. However, Nang said that most of the
graduates accepting to work for state agencies are those finishing social
sciences training and administration schools.
Analysts have also commented that
economics school graduates would rather work for businesses or foreign
institutions, which can pay them high, than working for state agencies for
modest pay.
Nang has confirmed that some
valedictorians at first accepted to work for state agencies, but they later
left the agencies because of the low pay.
