| Big Opportunities for Regional Applicants in CPNS 2025 Formations. |
Although registration for the 2025 Civil Servant Candidate (CPNS) selection has not officially opened, there are already strong signals of big opportunities for applicants in the regions. The central government, through the Ministry of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB), has confirmed that the demand for new civil servants remains high, including in regional government agencies.
High Demand for Regional Civil Servants
PANRB Minister Rini Widyantini stated that the government is currently focusing on completing the 2024 CPNS and PPPK selection process. However, she did not rule out the possibility that the 2025 CPNS recruitment will again target positions in various regions, especially in areas that are still short on staff.
“The bureaucracy still needs bright young people, fresh graduates, to improve our public services,” said Rini. This means opportunities for applicants outside major cities are still wide open.
Regional Positions in High Demand
Based on previous trends, many regional CPNS positions remain vacant due to a lack of applicants or qualified candidates. This makes the competition for regional posts relatively less intense, especially for sectors such as:
-
Teachers and education staff in remote areas
-
Healthcare workers in local clinics and regional hospitals
-
Technical staff in regional government offices
Applicants willing to work in remote or border areas often receive priority placement.
Strategies to Boost Your Chances
To take advantage of these opportunities, applicants should start preparing now by:
-
Understanding the educational qualifications most in demand in the regions.
-
Preparing administrative documents like diplomas, transcripts, and police clearance certificates.
-
Practicing core CPNS test sections such as National Insight Test (TWK), General Intelligence Test (TIU), and Personal Characteristics Test (TKP).
-
Monitoring the official SSCASN website (https://ift.tt/uf06mUW) for updates on available positions.
How to Check Future Openings
While the 2025 CPNS schedule has not yet been announced, the process to check available positions will likely be the same as in 2024:
-
Go to the SSCASN website.
-
Click Information Services → Job Vacancies.
-
Select Recruitment Type as needed.
-
Enter the agency name you’re targeting.
-
Click Search to view available positions.
The 2025 CPNS recruitment will likely continue to provide big opportunities for applicants in regional areas. The key is to prepare early, understand the needs of your target region, and be ready to compete with other applicants.
