Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

REFORMING : STAFF SELECTION COMMISSION


Over-qualified  :  Under-Skilled  :  Un-Employable  ?

================================


It does not help to be “ Over-qualified


And it is outright detrimental to be “ Under-Skilled “ ( in present case , “ Skill of carrying files “  )


Here is the context ( Source : Indian Express / 05 Jan ) :


“ Look Who Applied for Peon’s Job that went to MLA’s son “


Engineers , Lawyers , Chartered Accountants , MBAs were among 12,453 interviewed for 18 class IV posts at Rajasthan Assembly Secretariat  ( - I guess , selected from possibly 100,000 who applied ?  )


692 interviewed for EACH post  !


To be precise :


·         129………………………   Engineers

·         23…………………………  Lawyers

·         1………………………….   Chartered Accountant

·         393…………………….    Post Graduates

·         1533………………….     Arts  Graduate

·         23………………………   Post Graduates in Science

·         9……………………….    MBA



REASON  ?


For eligibility , Minimum Edu Qualification prescribed, was…………. Studied until Class V


I think it is high time , governments ( State + Central ) , clearly mention in their job advertisements :


Maximum Education Qualification ……….. 10th Standard FAIL ( - in present case , of course ! )


This would save a lot of time / effort / money – and frustration - , both for the Selectors and for the Candidates !


But , bureaucracy never learns !
