NOBARTV NEWS – Prospective Civil Servants (CPNS) 2024 who successfully passed the Basic Competency Selection (SKD) stage are now preparing to face the Field Competency Selection (SKB). SKB is an important stage that assesses participants' knowledge and skills according to the position they are applying for. Based on information from the State Civil Service Agency (BKN), applicants who meet the criteria will get the opportunity to take the SKB.
Requirements for Participating in SKB
Based on the Letter of the Acting Head of BKN Number 5419/B-KS.04.01/SD/K/2024, participants can proceed to the SKB stage if they are included in three times the number of formations needed and have met the threshold value for the formation applied for. This means that only applicants with the best ranking from the SKD results will be considered to take the SKB exam.
Details of SKB Grid Based on Position
Each position has different assessment grids and weights. Here are the details for several functional positions:
- First Expert Computer Technician:
- CAT Test: Weight 75%.

Articles 33 and 34 of the Regulation of the Minister of PANRB Number 6 of 2024 state that for functional positions, the SKB material is prepared by the supervising agency and integrated into the BKN CAT question bank. The types of tests that can be added include psychological tests, academic potential tests, foreign language tests, mental health, and interviews.

The final passing of CPNS 2024 is determined through the integration of SKD (40%) and SKB (60%) scores. The weighting details for SKB depend on the location of the agency:
- Central Agency:
- Using CAT BKN with a minimum weight of 50%.
- You can add up to three additional types of tests with a cumulative weighting of no more than 50%, including interviews with a maximum weighting of 10%.
- Regional Agency:
- Using CAT BKN with a minimum weight of 60%.
- For positions that require special technical skills, agencies can add one additional type of test with a maximum weighting of 40%.
