At present the good candidates are selected as a result of the vacancy
announcement for the positions of civil servants. Chairman of Council
for Civil Service, Manvel Badalyan, told journalists today. He noted
it is desirable that the best ones were in the number of the candidates
in order the positions were replenished with just such personnel.

Of course, M. Badalyan agrees that the low salary repels many of them,
therefore good specialists prefer to work in private section or at
international structures. Up to date the Council for Civil Service
has announced 4,200 vacancies, but 520 positions have been left
vacant. This, in Badalyan’s words, means we have a serious problem
of personnel.

It should be noted that there are 7,231 positions of civil servant in
Armenia today, but it is envisaged to also include the rescue service
in the system, as a result of which the number of the positions of
civil service will increase by 284.
