For 32 -year -old Arun K, actually coming close to qualifying the Civil Services Examination, the most rigorous professional test in the country was a little consolation.
In an attempt to eliminate all his opportunities and make a better part of their youth, they were left with the same prediction that faced most of those who appeared for this exam: to start a professional life from scratches. Despite being overwated, he took the only task that he managed to land after a desperate search-as an entry level administrative assistant to a public school on the outskirts of–an entry level.
Until he received a phone call from the Delhi-based corporate, which was fully updated about how he performed in the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) examination and evaluated him for his very concrete record in the prevailing stages of that exam, while keeping in mind his masters degree, finally he was employed as a medium-grade grade and a salary that he was appointed as a salary. Was. The job situation in the new employer was more with his educational qualification, and duly accepted his performance considered as the most difficult qualification test in India.
And for this, they have to thank an initiative of UPSC called Public Disclosure Scheme (PDS), through which the Commission has started sharing the details of non-disconnected, interested candidates of the Commission’s examinations with the private sector from the beginning of this year. Non-discriminated candidates are essentially those who qualify in written examinations, but post interviews are not recommended.
The argument for this is simple. UPSC conducts 10 regular exams every year and recommends some 6,400 successful candidates for appointments in various services; But around 26,000 candidates, who have already demonstrated their proficiency by clearing the harsh written examinations, have not been declared successful at the end of the process.

Arun was one in 26,000, which did not qualify the interview, but ended at 97 percent of the above in his examination category, and more than an entry-level job, but even more than the peers, and there was a decrease in any work experience.
While the scheme was introduced in 2018 with a view to providing employment opportunities to these talented youth in government organizations and public sector undertakings, these candidates have only got marginal success in keeping a handful of PSUs and government. This includes organizations like Cabinet Secretariat, Water Department

Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation, Delhi Jal Board and India’s Unique Identification Authority, but the number was really small. The only way to expand it was pure broad.
To widen the scope of PDS, which has later been rebuilt as Pratibha Setu, the Commission has launched a dedicated portal, where registered private companies, government-owned institutions, as well as an identity number, can get access to the information of candidates (using an identity numbers of candidates (API, a ministry-satisfied API, allows to contact and verify the MCA database. Are.
Along with their educational qualification, contact numbers etc., small biodats of candidates have also been made available in those logging, including private sector players. The portal also provides subjects and discipline-wise search facilities to registered organizations to identify appropriate candidates to suit their requirements.
The list of candidates is now being shared for the Civil Services Examination; Also, many other UPSC exams include engineering service exams; Indian Forest Service Examination; Central Armed Police Force (ACS) Examination; Joint Geological Examination; CISF Assistant Commandants (Executive) LDCE ‘Joint Medical Services Examination; Indian Economic Service/Indian Statistical Services Examination; National Defense Academy and Naval Academy Examination; And Joint Defense Services Examination. The list with all relevant details is placed on the portal, which the industry can only access by logging in after registration.

Interestingly, UPSC is also duly tracking the selection process of candidates, until they are shortlisted by organizations, until the issue of appointment letters. This includes calls from the Commission regularly to the companies registering for this scheme and generate logins. An official said that the selection status from the master list is being updated on the backnd on a real -time basis. A copy of the appointment letter has also been provided on the portal, which is being tightened to calibrate the success rate.
“The portal only share the information of non-informal candidates of examinations conducted by UPSC, only for the restricted purpose of evaluating the suitability of the candidates for the purpose of employment and those who assess it do not expect to use the details for any other purpose or disclosure,” the official said.
Secretary, UPSC has written several government departments to private companies working with each of these departments to broadcast information about the portal.
A detailed query for UPSC demanded progress on the upliftment of candidates. An official said it was still a “early day” for the plan, but the response has now been better that the private sector has been involved in the scheme.
