When considering the recruitment of public employees not holding managerial positions, as specified in point a, Clause 1 of this Article, the head of the competent recruitment agency or unit must establish an Examination and Evaluation Council. The composition of the Examination and Evaluation Council is carried out according to the provisions of Article 8 of this Decree.

The Examination and Evaluation Council performs the following tasks:

• Inspect the conditions, standards, diplomas, and certificates of the individual proposed for recruitment according to the requirements of the position to be filled;

• Organize assessment on general knowledge and professional competence of the individual proposed for recruitment; report to the head of the competent recruitment agency or unit the agreed method and content of the assessment before implementation;

• Operate on the principle of collectivity, making decisions by majority vote; in case of a tie, the decision aligns with the vote of the Council President;

• Report to the head of the competent recruitment agency or unit on the results of the examination and assessment;

• Dissolve after completing its tasks.

The head of the competent recruitment agency or unit makes a decision within their authority or reports in writing to the head of the superior agency managing public employees for uniform approval before making a decision within their authority.

In case the recruited or admitted public employee is arranged to work in the same field as their training or in the professional field previously undertaken, the period of work with mandatory social insurance contributions before recruitment (if there are discontinuous periods of work with mandatory social insurance contributions without receiving a lump-sum social insurance allowance, these will be accumulated) at the training level corresponding to the required level for the position will be considered for salary categorization according to the appropriate professional title for the recruited position.
