Chapter 259 Professional Assessment System
"In addition, students who pass the assessment should also take a subject-specific assessment.
In this subject-based assessment, a candidate can choose one or more departments for assessment at the same time."
“The examination questions are also set by the chief officials of each department and must be sufficiently professional.
For example, if you want to work in the Dianke Office, you need to be familiar with the way of Zongheng and understand the situation of the countries surrounding Daqin, and you can't be ignorant of everything."
"Those who want to work in the Internal Affairs Bureau must have arithmetic skills. If you can't even calculate the accounts clearly, you won't be able to help but will cause more trouble."
"Those who want to serve as local officials must understand agriculture and law."
In this way, talents who can pass the assessment to enter various departments for internship will have their own specialties and interests matched with the corresponding departments.
You can integrate into the work of the department faster and better, and it is easier to give full play to your strengths, thereby truly reducing the work pressure of each department!
The chief officers of each department can also save a lot of time in selecting, eliminating and retraining manpower, which is the best of both worlds."
Ying Yu spoke out his thoughts in one breath.
His routine is actually the Daqin version of the civil service examination in later generations, which especially highlights the aspect of professional counterparts.
"Okay, that's great!"
After Ying Zheng heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
This kind of classification and two-way selection assessment based on the needs of each department and the characteristics of the talents is definitely the first time in Daqin.
However, Ying Zheng has a very strong ability to accept new things. After thinking for a moment, he quickly understood the benefits of this.
Making the best use of everything and making the best use of people's talents has always been Ying Zheng's standard for selecting talents, but there has never been a concrete idea of how to do it. Now Ying Yu's words suddenly made Ying Zheng enlightened.
When there was a shortage of manpower in the past, various departments did not consider increasing manpower, but the effect was always poor, and there was even a joke that the more people there were, the lower the efficiency would be.
Many departments had to send back all the people they recommended, or had to make do with it.
Now Ying Yu's proposal solves this problem very well.
First of all, the fair assessment system directly eliminates the idea of honors jumping in line by relying on favors.
Under this system, if you want to pass the assessment, you must have real materials.
The subsequent two-way selection of department jobs and professional examinations allow the chief officers of each department to have a more comprehensive understanding of whether the candidates are suitable for their departments.
The matching will naturally be improved.
"Since your kid proposed this matter, let you handle it. You have nothing to do anyway, so implement it as soon as possible."
Ying Yu shrugged helplessly, he knew that Brother Zheng would come like this.
"Father, in addition to this, the monitoring of the examination is also a top priority. Whether it is the examiner or the examinee, once cheating is discovered, it must be strictly investigated and dealt with!"
“In particular, recommendation and submission of papers must be prohibited. No matter who wants to be an official, they must first pass the assessment.
Although my country, Great Qin, is in urgent need of talents, we cannot give those idiots an opportunity."
Ying Zheng nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and then looked at Meng Yi who was eating hot pot.
"The prince is right. The supervision will be left to Qing Meng. Anyone who engages in malpractice for personal gain will be severely punished!"
"I accept your order!"
When Meng Yi saw this, he quickly stood up and clasped his fists in response.
Officials before the Qin Dynasty actually had a recommendation system similar to that of retainers. Although some talents were indeed obtained, most of them came through connections.
Although these people cannot be said to be idiots, they are still lacking in abilities.
In the past two years, Jin Yiwei has monitored hundreds of officials and found out many weak and mediocre officials.
"Father, in addition to vigorous supervision, each test paper must be marked by more than three examiners at the same time. After averaging the scores, they will be handed over to the department chief for final judgment."
"If there is only one examiner, it is still easy for loopholes to appear, and talents may be buried due to personal reasons."
Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction after hearing this:
"The prince is really thoughtful."
"According to the current plan, it is almost impossible to engage in fraud for personal gain."
"My father has given me too much praise, and my son just wants to get rid of the previous monopoly of the wealthy families and nobles on the court, and give students from poor families a chance to enter the court. While letting poor families see hope, it also allows Da Qin to obtain more useful talents.
.
And all of this must be based on fairness and justice. If you cannot even achieve fairness and justice, once you lose trust with the people, it will be difficult to recover."
"Nowadays, with the promotion of official schools and literacy training classes, the proportion of people in our country who are reading and literate is getting higher and higher. As long as my father can let them see the hope of studying hard and becoming talented, their enthusiasm for learning will naturally increase."
Ying Zheng thought for a long time and said, "That's true."
This incentive method is somewhat similar to the Great Qin military merit title system.
Because of the military title system, the men of the Qin Dynasty were masculine and martial, and the soldiers were fearless on the battlefield and fought bravely to kill the enemy.
This laid the foundation for Qin to unify the world.
Now Ying Yu's proposal also allows poor students to see hope of reversing their lives. I believe the effect will not be bad.
I believe it won’t be long before Da Qin can truly put equal emphasis on civil and military affairs, rather than walking on two legs, one long and one short.
The Qin Dynasty needed generals to expand its territory and defend its territory.
Similarly, civil servants and good prime ministers are also needed to govern and develop.
“The last and most important point is that all examination subjects must be practical.
Although poems and lyrics are good in meaning, they are of little use in governing the country. Whether it is the preliminary examination or the examination of various departments, it must be pragmatic.
Especially for the assessment of each department, the test questions must be consistent with the actual work."
One of the important reasons why the imperial examinations in later generations were less effective as they progressed was that the examination content was too rigid.
In particular, the Yi Eight-part essay has stifled all creativity, and it is more exam-oriented education than exam-oriented education.
The purpose of most people studying and participating in the imperial examination is actually to become an official. They will read whatever the court tests, which is extremely utilitarian.
At present, Da Qin is still a blank slate in this regard, so Ying Yu must guide the trend in the right direction from the beginning.
Otherwise, no matter how well the article is written, it can only mean that the person is talented and may be able to teach and educate people.
