Chapter 124: Austrian Civil Service Examination

The Austrian government has been very busy recently. The war has ended the military merit rewards promised by the government, which must be honored; the industries that have just been taken over from the church must also be managed; universal compulsory education also requires the strong cooperation of local governments ...
There are many things in the government, and naturally there is a shortage of manpower. Since there is a shortage of people, it is necessary to recruit externally.
Any kind of talents in this world may be in short supply, except those who want to be officials.
Of course, there are exceptions if it is in harsh conditions, but it is absolutely impossible to appear in Austria.
I don't know how many children of the noble family are at home and are struggling to find opportunities but can't help but slowly degenerate into a rice bug.
Now that the opportunity has come, it is natural to join the ruling clique.
Don't think that grass-roots civil servants won't be popular, it will not be easy for the nobles to find a decent job.
Austria is conservative. Most of the children of the aristocracy cannot afford to work for the capitalists, which will damage their reputation.
They would rather join the army and slowly climb up rather than holding a generous salary under the capitalists, which would make them feel insulted by their dignity.
Initially, Franz's proposal to conduct a nationwide civil service examination immediately met with collective government opposition. After analyzing the actual situation, he gave up this tempting idea with kindness.
There are not many intellectuals this year. They are nothing more than aristocrats, capitalists, middle classes, and children of ordinary people. If Franz is really there, I dare not use it.
As a qualified monarch, you must first ensure the loyalty of your people. As far as the ability is concerned, ordinary civil servants need Mao's ability. As long as the IQ is on the passing line and can execute the orders of superiors, they can be competent.
So this time, I ’m still choosing among the noble children. If we look at the overall level of the ability of the noble children, they have accepted some of the life experience passed down by their parents, which is not comparable to the outbreak households.
Of course, the emperor's face is still to be given, and the official examination is also held, but this is a civil service examination with Austrian characteristics, which excludes most people in the qualifications.
For example: academic qualifications require starting in middle school, passing social knowledge level examinations, passing political review (correctness of the three perspectives, no record of bad speech, no record of illegal crimes of the three generations of ancestors), industry evasion system (parents, relatives are engaged in industry, children must not Reference to supervisory positions) ...
If no children of the aristocracy gave the green light and proceeded directly to the second round, then this civil service examination will be fair in general.
At least in terms of the government's restrictions, it is still past. After the newspaper published these restrictions, public opinion was uproar.
To Franz's surprise, such naked exclusion conditions are, to the outside world, a major progress in the reform of the Austrian government, which is highly valued by public opinion.
If he wasn't sure he didn't control the public opinion, he would suspect that all these praises were all navy.
There is also no objection. Many young students have opinions. Feeling that their participation in demonstrations and attacks on the government may become obstacles preventing them from applying for civil servants.
Of course, their opinions can only be grasped in their hearts. Since the Ministry of Education has strengthened the quality management of school education, their schoolwork has increased a lot.
The magic weapon of the test was cited by Franz into the Austrian education system. The test is conducted monthly, the semi-annual mid-term exam, and the annual exam.
The results of each examination are publicized. Those who are not afraid of shame can try it. The future graduation certificate will note the results during the school.
If you fail three times in a row, prepare to repeat. If you can't repeat the grade, you have to wait for the school to dismiss it.
Of course, rich and willful locals can continue to play, and do n’t want to repeat the grade to give money. The first time is to pay 5,000 dong to follow the reading fee, the second time to pay 10,000 dong to follow the reading fee, and the third time to pay 20,000 dong to follow the reading fee ... ...
If you have money, you can buy it all the way. Austrian universities don't mind selling graduation certificates. If there is enough money, the performance at school can be modified.
Under the pressure of the Ministry of Education, students in Austria spend every day in "happy" study.
Dare to skip class? If you are expelled directly, you can try it out. If you are expelled from school, what will happen?
The most restricted bourgeoisie is collective silence this time, and the Vienna government has not targeted them for a day or two, and a lot of restrictions have been imposed.
No way, the colleagues planned the March Revolution and successfully angered the Austrian government. Although the were dead and ran away, but the government clearly remembered the hatred?
Everyone is a smart man with rich experience in social struggles, knowing that he ca n’t take the lead at this time, even if he has any ideas, he has to wait until the show is over.
Franz had anticipated these situations in advance, and what worried him most was that some people opposed the privileges of the aristocracy and caused domestic unrest.
The aristocracy had the advantage in the first round and went directly to the second round, which simply did not leave other people a chance.
It turns out that he just thought too much. The majority of Austrians are not so conscious. No matter what conditions are set, it is impossible for them to take their turn, and it has nothing to do with hanging up.
Everyone agrees with the disguised prohibition of capitalists from becoming public officials. These guys are already very dark. If they were to be officials again, what would it be?
Well, since everyone doesn't comment, Franz treats everyone as no opinion.
The matter was so settled, whether it was an exam or a direct interview. Franz was too lazy to ask questions about how to recruit people in various departments. He only needed the results.
The bureaucrats are not fools. The recruited people are doing things and they are low-level civilian officials. How can it be possible for a group of masters to come in and make a mess?
If they do not do well, it means that they will be held accountable by superior officials. The Austrian government does not have a temporary staffing system that can be used to top the tanks, and its staff are unfavorable.
Since Prime Minister Felix came to power, he has purified the Austrian bureaucracy again. At this time, the government's efficiency has not improved a little bit.
...
Schönbrunn Palace, located in the southwestern part of Vienna, was built in the 17th century. It has undergone several expansions in the middle, and it was not completed until the time of Queen Mary Magister Theresia.
It has 1441 rooms with a total area of ​​up to 26,000 square meters and has a variety of regional cultural styles, second only to Versailles.
Franz was born in Schönbrunn Palace, probably due to the memory of his predecessor, and has a unique feeling for it. He has lived here since his succession.
The palace is dedicated to oriental classical architecture, such as Chinese-style rooms inlaid with rosewood, ebony, and ivory, and Japanese-style rooms decorated with lacquered gold and lacquer.
The interior decoration of the room is also unified in oriental style, with ceramics inlaid on the four walls and ceiling. Among the dazzling array of ceramic wares, there are Chinese celadon porcelain, Ming Dynasty Wanli colored porcelain plates, and flower vases.
Take any one of these things before you can cross it, you can get rid of the reeling career, but now it is in front of him in a wholesale style.
Except for the initial excitement, Franz didn't feel much. What about antiques? In his status, as long as he used things, in the future generations will be antique relics.
The premise is that he has always succeeded, and if it fails, the value of these things will be greatly reduced.
Franz knew that the luxurious Schönbrunn Palace was actually a bad project. The Schönbrunn Palace at the time of design was comparable in size and luxury to that of Versailles, but due to limited financial resources, the original design failed.
As a discreet receiver, Franz doesn't mind completing the original design. Of course, this is a future thing. Now he can't bear to throw money on it.
I don't know since when, Franz likes to drink tea and read newspapers under a huge tree.
"Your Majesty, Prince Windisch Graz asks."
The maid sounded crisply, awakening the imaginative Franz.
"Bring him over, by the way, add a chair," Franz ordered.
This is his respect for the ministers. In informal occasions, everyone is very casual in discussing matters together. The chairs are placed there and you can sit casually. What do you like about coffee, tea and juice?
Unless this is the first time, Franz will greet himself. Behind you are all loving and embarrassing, don't expect your great emperor to greet you every day.
Regarding Franz's way of doing things, Prince Wendy Schgrez was very clear. Big nobles naturally have the style of big nobles.
After the etiquette had passed, he automatically sat on the chair next to him and asked the maid for a cup of coffee before he said:
"Your Majesty, you see that all government departments are expanding their staff. Our retired officers also need to be resettled. How about letting them fill any part of the post?"
Out and out, this is a regular operation in Austria. Take Franz's current cabinet as an example, all of them were from the military.
This is the choice of the vast majority of nobles in the German region. Adult children have to go into the army once, even if they only serve in name, they must go through the action.
In the general environment, Wu Zhuanwen naturally has no obstacles. When Prince Wendi Schgrez made this request, he wanted to open the back door.
"In principle, there are no problems, but what positions they are suitable for, still have to be determined after evaluation." Franz calmly responded
Prince Wendy Schgrez continued to fight: "His Majesty, these transferred officers are military, they ..."
"I know all these things. It is for their own good that I feel they should be put in a position that suits them.
If they are given incompetent positions, I feel that this is not a reward, but a frame for them.
The Austrian government is no longer the original Austrian government. Every employee in the government is now responsible for his work.
If something goes wrong because of your own abilities, you will also be held accountable. Do you want these heroes to lose their reputation in the second half of their lives? Franz asked back
Perhaps he felt that his words were a bit heavy, and Franz added: "Instead of saying this here, the War Department might as well train the retired officers once they have the ability. Can they not compete with others?"
Preferential treatment? Franz does treat soldiers favorably, but the problem is that the basic principles cannot be lost, and the same conditions can be given priority. If you are weak, you can only do simple work.
