Can Fresh Graduates Register For PPPK? Here's The Answer Based On Applicable Conditions

YOGYAKARTA - The government's program for the procurement of Government Employees with Work Agreements (PPPK) will be implemented again in 2024. Many parties are wondering, especially from new graduates or fresh graduates, can fresh graduates register PPPK? This question is quite general considering the priorities that are usually given to employees who already have work experience in the government sector.

Launching from ANTARA, based on information published through an official letter numbered 6610/B-KS.04.01/SD/K/2024, it is stated that the 2024 PPPK recruitment process will be divided into two waves. The first wave will be carried out from October 1 to 20, 2024, which is focused on priority applicants.

These priority applicants include several categories, such as Priority Applicants Teachers, D-IV Education Midwives graduates in 2023, former Honorary Staff Category II (THK-II) which have been recorded in the State Civil Service Agency (BKN) database, as well as non-ASN personnel registered in the same database.

The second wave of the 2024 PPPK selection will be held from November 17 to December 31, 2024. In this wave, the focus of selection will be on non-ASN personnel who are still actively working in government agencies. In addition, graduates of Teacher Professional Education (PPG) who apply for teacher formation in regional agencies can also participate in the selection in this second wave.

The rules and mechanisms for registering for the 2024 PPPK selection are regulated in several important decisions from the Ministry of Administrative Reform and Bureaucratic Reform (PANRB). These decisions include KepmenPANRB Number 347 of 2024 which regulates in general the PPPK selection mechanism, KepmenPANRB Number 348 of 2024 which specifically regulates the selection of PPPK for Teacher Functional Positions in Regional Agencies, as well as KepmenPANRB Number 349 of 2024 which regulates the selection of PPPK for Health Functional Positions.

However, the main question that often arises is, do new graduates or fresh graduates have the opportunity to take part in this selection? Based on an official announcement letter number 6610/B-KS.04.01/SD/K/2024, there are four groups of applicants who meet the requirements to take part in the 2024 PPPK selection. The four groups include:

From these criteria, it can be concluded that fresh graduates or new graduates are not included in the group that can register in the 2024 PPPK selection. Priorities are given to applicants who already have experience, both from honorary staff, non-ASN staff, and professionals who have worked in government agencies.

This is based on an evaluation from the government which considers that workers with experience are better prepared to carry out their duties in government, especially in important sectors such as education and health.

The government also considers that several formations in PPPK require specific expertise and work experience that have been honed in the field. Therefore, fresh graduates are expected to make more use of their time after graduation to hone their skills and gain relevant experiences.

Thus, they will be better prepared when the opportunity to register for PPPK is open to them in the years to come.

With this policy, fresh graduates can focus on developing professional capabilities and looking for relevant work experience, so that when the next opportunity arrives, they will be more competitive and ready to compete in the PPPK selection. To add
