The Civil Service Commission (CSC) stated that individuals who pass the bar and board examinations are automatically recognized as civil service eligibles.
CSC clarified that Republic Act No. 1080, as amended, states that "the bar examinations and the various examinations conducted by government boards are regarded as civil service examinations.” Thus, those who pass the bar examinations administered by the Supreme Court (SC) and licensure exams conducted by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) are automatically added to the list of eligibles.
Since 2014, this eligibility has also extended to marine deck and engine officers licensed by the Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA), following the transfer of the examination, licensing, and certification responsibilities from the PRC to MARINA under Republic Act No. 10635.
