Controversy Erupts Over Required Tests for Sanitation Worker Positions; City Responds, Cites Competitive Field
A job posting for sanitation workers in Shanghai’s Qingpu District requiring both a written exam and interview sparked online debate. With nearly 5 applicants per position, the “exam + interview” approach aims for fairer selection. The written test assesses basic sanitation knowledge like waste sorting, while the interview evaluates practical skills, communication, and responsibility. The recruiting company clarified that the exam isn’t overly difficult and doesn’t involve complex calculations. Eligibility requires Jinze Town residency and adherence to age requirements, with compensation including social insurance, housing fund, salary, and allowances.
