How to become a provincial and ministerial cadre Zhihu

The promotion path of civil servants in big data

1. Admitted to civil servants

Starting civil servants: 22 years old

Promotion ratio: 1.45

The key to promotion: Break through the national examination army and obtain civil servant qualifications

This means that you have to join the national examination army. You can compete with nearly a thousand people for a popular position, or you can choose an unpopular position. You know the difference between popular and unpopular. According to regulations, there is still a one-year probationary period. After becoming a regular employee, you will move from the probationary period to a first-level clerk.

After your postgraduate degree is converted to regular status, you can be rated as a fourth-level chief clerk, so that you will be one level higher than your peers.

2. Section staff to the county level

First-level chief staff member: 28 years old

Promotion ratio: 4.4

Key to promotion : Complete the promotion from deputy director to full director in the shortest possible time

It is not too difficult to go from second-level section member to first-level section member and fourth-level chief section member.

However, most people stop there.

If you want to be a "leader", it's not enough to just get promoted and enjoy benefits. You also need to take up positions with the word "long". For example, the fourth-level chief section officer is at the section level, but you may not have the "position" of section chief. Sometimes it takes a certain amount of years and opportunities to go from first-level chief section officer to section chief.

There are 900,000 department-level cadres in the country, and the organizational department must select 40,000 from them as reserve candidates for county and division-level cadres. The probability of promotion is less than 4.4. If you are lucky enough to get a promotion, it will take you at least 7 years to reach the senior level.

So in some institutions, when they retire, many staff members can have the "rank" of a first-level chief staff officer, and they can only become a fourth-level researcher without the "long". This is the end, this is the so-called "ceiling cadre".

The Beijing Municipal Party Committee Party School was commissioned by the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee to participate in a research project on the growth patterns of outstanding officials in Beijing. This study surveyed 200 samples of outstanding bureau-level and division-level officials in Beijing.

It took about 11 years for these officials to rise from ordinary clerk to deputy director.

There is a watershed after being promoted to deputy director - it is very important to complete the promotion from deputy director to full director in the shortest possible time.

After you become a first-level chief section officer, you must ensure that you will be promoted to deputy director within about four years. Otherwise, it will be left behind. Usually, if an official can be promoted from deputy director to chief within 3-4 years, then there is more room for him to be promoted from chief to deputy bureau or chief bureau.

At this stage, "taking small steps and running fast" is the only way to reach a higher level. In this link, those in high positions obviously "progress" faster than those in low positions - and the time difference of 1 or 2 years in the critical stage often means whether the official can ensure that he does not reach the age limit. According to the best situation, you will reach the top around the age of 35.

Foreign Minister Wang Yi is an official who stands out from the crowd by running fast. He completed the multi-level leap from section clerk to director in just 7 years.

Of course, for most officials, more patience is needed in their official career.

In a very small number of very low-level cadre selections, even if your age and qualifications meet the requirements, you suddenly find that some harsh conditions have fallen from the sky. Compared with the person with the background, you are only a shadow. .

3. County level to department level

Director level: 35 years old

Promotion ratio: 0.01

Keys to promotion: Grassroots experience is indispensable

The following stage will become more and more a game for a few elites. After becoming a county-level leader, you have to withstand the test of "the rolling world", beauties, money, etc.

At this time, you have 600,000 colleagues at the county and division level, of whom only 6,000 can become reserve cadres at the department and bureau level. It will take at least 11 years for you to be promoted to the department and bureau level.

For officials at this level, the key thereafter is to have grassroots experience. Beijing officials themselves believe that the most effective ways of promotion are: conducting grassroots training, enhancing personal cultivation, improving public prestige, job rotation and exchanges, and striving for leadership attention.

Grassroots exercise is also ranked before enhancing personal cultivation and gaining leadership attention.

Therefore, for city bureau officials, transferring to a district or county or commission bureau is usually a matter of promotion and "training".

Although grassroots experience is very important, if we only look at speed, experts believe that when they are promoted from ordinary cadres to full-time officials, officials in municipal committee offices have an advantage in promotion speed.

But if the department-level cadres of the agency do not make up for the lessons of grassroots experience, it will not be easy for them to have room for advancement.

After completing the jump from division level to bureau level officials, their promotion can also rely on "cross-training". Completely different training experiences can make officials think more broadly and make their style more pragmatic.

Experts say that officials generally experience multiple positions in their growth process. Among them, bureau-level officials have experienced an average of 6-8 positions, and department-level officials have experienced an average of 3-4 positions.

It is worth noting that some departments in "cross-training" positions are "blessed places" for promotion, such as districts, counties and departments that play an important role in economic, political and social management. Officials who are professional or creative are more likely to be promoted, while officials in "watch-and-stand" units generally have little room for advancement.

If you are 22 years old when you become a civil servant, you will be 47 years old when you reach the department level. Even if everything goes well and the organization has high hopes for you, the opportunity may not be there because the tasks are not completed harmoniously.

For example, demolition encounters a nail-biter house, mass incidents cause public outrage, Weibo open houses are watched, safety production accidents... Of course, there are far more things that affect your promotion than these.

4. From the main department and bureau level to the provincial and ministerial level

Department and bureau level: 47 years old

Promotion ratio: 0.025

Keys to promotion: The key depends on what position is vacant

However, high-level positions are limited after all. Even for the most outstanding officials, most of their political careers end at the bureau level.

When officials reach the department and bureau level, the organizational department will select 1,000 people from 40,000 department and bureau-level cadres. As reserve cadres at the provincial and ministerial levels, the probability of promotion is less than 2.5.

At the level of district party committee secretary, anyone can be the deputy mayor, and there are very few people who are incompetent. However, there are various factors that determine promotion, and the key depends on what position is vacant.

There are 6.89 million civil servants in 32 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, and 98 central departments. The chance of rising from ordinary civil servants to the top leaders of the party and government in these departments is 1/50,000.

If you have been delayed in a certain position for a year or two and find that your age exceeds the limit when it comes to promotion, you can join the team of reserve veteran cadres for development.

As for entering the provincial ranks, you need to be promoted faster and younger.
