Some 930,000 people took the National Public Servant Exam in China Sunday, a 60,000 decrease from last year's figure.

Candidates arrive to take the civil servant exam in Nanjing, capital of east China's Jiangsu Province, Nov. 29, 2015. 

But the number of 27,000 positions that candidates are competing for is a new high in several years, making this year the easiest one to land a government job.

The exam is still considered one of the most competitive tests in the country as only one out of every 33 is expected to get a government job this year.

Civil servant jobs are favored by many Chinese as they offer a relatively stable career, although the popularity of government posts has dropped in recent years.
