Info regarding Civil Services Exam Age eligibility

If you fall in OBC category, you have age relaxation(+3 years). For SC/ST it is +5 years.

 

hi arch

I just came across this thread of yours, sorry a very late reply. Yes, 30 years is the maximum age limit (gen. category candidates) for applying for union civil services. But the same age limit applies to state services as well in some cases. Please check out from the relevant state services sites for age limits ( you will only have to google MPSC- Maharashtra Public Service exams etc. to find the links), not posting here cause not sure if that is allowed. I checked in one blog and people are giving conflicting eligiblity ages for MPSC, 28- 33 years. I think Class I and II posts would be 28 years and others would be 33 years.

Is there anyway you can subscribe to Employment News living in the US. You could also check out its website.

Don't be disheartened as there are a lot many other avenues open in the govt. sector depending on educational qualifications and work experience.

 

In 2012 A Hong Kong-based corporate consultancy, Political and Economic Risk Consultancy (PERC) rates Indian bureaucracy as the worst in Asia. It rated Singapore bureaucracy to be the best in Asia, followed by Hong Kong, Thailand, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and Malaysia.

The Indian bureaucracy scored 9.21 on a scale of 10 to turn out the worst while China scored 7.11, better than Vietnam (8.54), Indonesia (8.37) and Philippines (7.57). The consultancy's report gave a rating of 2.25 to Singapore followed by Hong Kong (3.53), Thailand (5.25) Taiwan (5.57), Japan (5.77), South Korea (5.87) and Malaysia (5.89).

Arch,

I heard there is a website called sarkarinaukri.com or similar to it. Google it you may find the exact link. There all the notifications and details of Government jobs will be put up. UPSC / all state services / Govt. corporation requirments etc.. It will act like Naukri and gives the alerts to mail whenever the notifications as per your requirement comes up.

Good luck. You are just 30. I thought you might be in middle of 30s.
