The competition for leadership positions at the State Bureau of Investigation is interesting not only for the winners. The list of “losers” — those who blatantly failed the legal knowledge tests — is very informative. Because, as a rule, these are current law enforcement officers in high positions.
Tests on knowledge of the legislation in the DBR competition, they say, were not very difficult. Two contenders managed to score 100 points out of 100 possible: Ruslan Biryukov, about whom BIHUS.Info has written before, and Volodymyr Timoshko, about whom more will be said below in this text.
But the tests did not work out for everyone. We selected a top ten of candidates who failed them the most. Among them, police officers appear most often. But there is, for example, a whole dean of the Cyber Police Faculty of the Kharkiv University of Internal Affairs. That is — a lecturer. That is a person who should be teaching the laws to future police officers.
But about everyone — in order. In the format of a hit parade.
Failure No. 10: Serhiy Nizhynskyi
59 points out of 100
Official. Serhiy Nizhynskyi works in the Secretariat of the Cabinet of Ministers — as acting head of the Department of Strategic Planning and Coordination of State Policy. In the DBR he wanted to head the Department of External Communications and International Cooperation.

Failure No. 9: Viacheslav Markov

Lecturer. Markov is exactly the same dean of the Cyber Police Faculty from the Kharkiv University of Internal Affairs.
He applied to two completely different positions in the DBR: director of the territorial department in Poltava and head of the Internal Control Department.
For these positions, the competition commission selected, respectively, the deputy head of Poltava police Vladimir Timoshko (100 points on the tests) and a employee of the Security Service of Ukraine Bogdan Chobitko (85 points — relatively low result).
