REGAS Commentary
The announcement is for a personnel recruitment process focused on technical positions (with an emphasis on engineering) and requiring a KPSS score. In particular, the requirement for an additional certificate or transcript for Computer Operator positions requires candidates to pay careful attention when preparing their documents. The fact that the examination includes an oral interview stage indicates that not only candidates' scores but also their general abilities and professional knowledge will be assessed.
