Experts have attributed a drop in the number of eligible applicants for the national civil service examination to China's ongoing anti-corruption campaign.
As of 8 am on Friday, 10 hours before the deadline, the number of eligible candidates for the 2015 Civil Servant Test stood at 1.06 million, compared with 1.52 million last year, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security said.
The final number of eligible candidates will be available on Sunday.
