Very tough to get a govt. job especially for Library Professionals

Dear friends,

I have been applied and appeared in written tests and interviews for so many govt. jobs. In most of jobs I saw that, the internal candidates already working on temporary or contract basis get selected for the post. 

Why they call outsiders for these types of written test and interviews, if they are already having such capable people on contract basis. More or less in all Govt.organizations the situation is same in this regard. What to do in this case?

Dear Mr. Ritesh

I am very much satisfied with you , that the candidate working in the same institute will get the preference.

The queston is why they will call, they will because they has to do the formalities.

Even i have cleared so many written examination and face the interviews as well but the condition is same as u said.

At last i have to change my profession.

 

Wish you all the best for your future.

Thanks for your kind reply and suggestion.

hi very nice

Hello sir, i am agree with you, even i have already qualified 2 central govt job one in IGNOU and other in KVS. Now, I am looking for gud post like Assistant Prof. and Assistant Librarian and even appeared in few interview and my interview was very nice and penal was impressed even they did not selected me. The result is i am very disappointed and  my confidence is goes down..........but still i know  i am one of the deserving candidate and will be selected very soon. Our approach should be positive..........

Thanks for your kind reply and suggestion.

Dear all, 

ur all opinions are true..!!!

Its too much poor situation for LIS professionals, 

Future LIS life we cant imagine...!!! 

 

Thanks for your kind reply and suggestion.

Dear Ritesh I don't think that only internal candidate will be selected in any government jobs, for your kind information i want to say that i am also working in a government sector on contract bases since 2 and half year and i faced one interview here but as I am a internal candidate still i didn't selected because the selected candidate brought influence from some politician. So what I am trying to say is that only internal candidate will be select in any interview is not the correct thing we must try our best remember every one's time will come but one need to wait and for that moment, but to all I just say always keep positive thinking whatever it may be happened because god has planned something more than that and keep smiling!!!!!!!!!! 

i agree in ur point of view sir....i also face this type of corruption... we should hv to do something...!!!!

Dear Vivek Mishra Ji, 

ur right, 

the best solution is to leave this profession..!!!

people wont recognize us in this feild, what ever u do work..!!!

It's not the scenario in LIS only. It is  applicable more or less in other fields also. So it would not be right to leave the profession. We should raise the voice against this unfair procedure. Mini PSC should be the solution. In many subjects Mini PSC fills the vacancy for many government body but except Libraries.
