For candidates who could not make it to the final merit list of the UPSC, there is now a new ray of hope. The UPSC has begun sharing data for job openings in private companies.

32-year-old Arun Kumar, a resident of New Delhi, spent many years of his youth preparing for the civil services examination. Like every time, this time to he could not make it to the final cut-off list. In such a situation, he had the challenge of starting life afresh once again. But now UPSC has opened a new window of hope for thousands of such youth who could not make it to the final selection list.

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has now started a new service for such candidates who could not clear the civil services examination, but who have experience of hard work, discipline and administrative thinking. The commission has started a special portal, where these candidates can share their profiles for private companies.

The objective of this initiative is to provide these candidates with an alternative career opportunity according to their abilities. Private companies will now be able to see these profiles and invite eligible candidates for jobs.

Thousands of youth like Arun will benefit

Many candidates like Arun Kumar have spent their life and energy preparing for UPSC. Some reach the interview, but are not selected finally. In such a situation, neither do they get any government job nor are they able to directly enter the private sector because their entire experience is limited to UPSC preparation.

Arun started working at an entry-level administrative post in a public school, but he was not getting work and recognition according to his abilities. One day he got a call from a corporate company, in which he was offered a better job based on his UPSC background. This was a new beginning for him.

How will it work?

Candidates whose names are not in the final list of civil services can register on the portal. Private companies can visit this portal and see the profiles of the candidates. Eligible candidates can get interviews and job offers from companies
