A Civil Service Exam is a standardized test that is used to assess the knowledge, skills, and abilities of individuals seeking to enter or advance within a civil service or public sector career. These exams are designed to ensure that candidates are selected based on merit and are qualified for the specific roles they are applying for. Civil Service Exams are commonly used in many countries as a part of the recruitment process for various government positions.
