党的十七届四中全会强调,要“完善公开选拔、竞争上岗等竞争性选拔干部方式,突出岗位特点,注重能力实绩”。落实这一要求,一个重要方面是要坚持“干什么、考什么”原则,改进笔试和面试方法,真正考出干部的基本素质和实际能力,切实提高竞争性选拔干部的质量。 The Fourth Plenary Session of the 17th CPC Central Committee emphasized that it is necessary to “improve the competitive selection of cadres in the public selection and competition for posts, highlight the post characteristics and pay attention to the actual performance”. To implement this requirement, one important aspect is to adhere to the principle of “what to do and what to test for”, improve written examination and interview methods, and truly test out the basic quality and practical ability of cadres so as to effectively improve the quality of competitive and qualified cadres.
