However, the official said that looking at the current COVID situation, the CET is unlikely to be held by March.
Notably. the Common Eligibility Test has been delayed for the second time due to the COVID pandemic. It was first scheduled to be held in September-October last year.
The Central government had in 2020 established the National Recruitment Agency (NRA) to conduct preliminary examination for nearly 4 crore candidates who apply for around 1.25 lakh central government jobs every year.
And the NRA carries out the initial screening and shortlisting of candidates for government jobs through the CET which are currently held by the Staff Selection Commission (SSC), and Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) and Railway Recruitment Board (RRB).
Giving more details, the DoPT official said the scope of the examination will be expanded to cover other government jobs in the coming years. Right now, the recruitment to non-gazetted posts in the central government takes place at the levels of class 10, class 12, and upon graduation.
