Abstract

The Constitutional Court judged that disclosing test questions and answers in Article 9 (1) 5 of the Information Disclosure Act would cause difficulties in conducting test tasks repeatedly, which significantly impedes the fair performance of the work of public institutions. The Supreme Court judged that it is not necessary to disclose the test questions and the correct answers if the question-taking method adopts the item bank question method. However, the contents of these precedents need to be applied differently in the NCS-based recruitment examination, which is the basis of today's public institution recruitment examinations. Unlike the traditional public institution recruitment test, where questions were asked internally mainly for the purpose of evaluating major knowledge, today's NCS-based recruitment test is conducted by dividing it into core competency test and job performance ability. Among them, the core competency test is an aptitude test that evaluates the basic liberal arts ability, and the range of questions for each area is abstract, so the range of questions is very wide. In addition, the questioning system is conducted by an external company entrusted with the recruitment agency service, and the questioning method adopts a "direct question method" rather than a item bank question method, “difficulty in repeating test work when questions and answers are disclosed”, which is pointed out as a problem in the precedents, rarely occurs. Therefore, the disclosure of the NCS core competency test questions and answers does not appear to significantly impede the fair performance of the test work. Comparing the position of precedents on whether to disclose test information and the nature and questioning method of the NCS core competency test, and examining the differences, it is difficult to interpret the disclosure of NCS core competency test by applying the contents that were permitted to be disclosed in the previous precedents. Also, considering the status and weight of the NCS-based recruitment system in today's employment in public institutions, and considering the burden and anxiety of job seekers due to lack of information and data in preparing for the NCS core competency test, disclosure of NCS core competency test questions and answers is considered a necessary measure.
