Craze for becoming a Chinese civil servant continues as 1 million will compete for about 10,000 positions. Although competition is fierce for many college students taking the test, it's the first and maybe the most important step when it comes to job hunting. Feng Jingchao reports. Xuxin is due to graduate next year, hoping to find a good job. He's ready to take the test to become a civil servant. After careful selection, he finally chooses a position just before the deadline. "At first, I chose a position in the Foreign Ministry. But the position is very popular, more than 160 people have applied for that. So I finally pick the position in the Banking Regulatory Commission which about 100 people have applied for." The competition is still tough. In fact, Xuxin doesn't have much confidence in passing the test and getting the job. But he sees this as an opportunity worth going for.
