Government jobs after class 12. Government exams.

“Bas Boards ka saal achche se padh lo, phir toh aaraam hi aaraam hai.”

Does this sentence ring any bells for you? Have your parents also been telling you the same thing to get you to take to your books? Well, I am sure, like me, and any other red-blooded Indian, you have also heard this statement hundreds of times. The closer you get to your board examinations, the greater the frequency at which you will hear these lines. I am not sure for how many students this statement has come true, but what I can tell you is, if you manage to secure a job within the government sector, phir toh aaraam hi aaraam hai.

If you have cleared your class 12 examination and are seeking employment within the public sector, we have got you covered. In this article, we will talk about the various government job opportunities after class 12. If you are confused about what you should pursue, we have compiled a list of government jobs for you in this article. Study the list carefully to understand what you are eligible for and what it is that you would like to pursue. We will first look at the 2 major sectors based on the nature of employment, i.e., private and public. 

Public Sector Jobs: The government employs thousands of its citizens in its machinery. Public sector employment is a 2-way street. While the government provides employment opportunities for its people, citizens can participate in the state machinery and ensure development and progress in all aspects of society. While the citizens need employment and security, the government needs efficient workers who will help them in the smooth running of the state. Public sector jobs in India come with several attached benefits and incentives. We will discuss them later in this article.

Private Sector Jobs: The private sector employs people through individual business owners, corporations, or other non-government agencies. Workers are paid with part of the company’s profits. Private sector jobs are set in a high-paced competitive environment. These jobs are always presenting new opportunities and new challenges to the individuals that promise an exciting work life. 

Why choose a government job?

Government jobs in India remain the most attractive career option among youth even today owing to the social reputation that comes along with job security and comfortable life. Starting from an attendant to a Group A officer, every government employee enjoys prestige and comfort. Read about the benefits associated with government jobs to understand why lakhs of candidates appear for competitive examinations year after year. 

This is why Indian youth begin preparing for competitive entrance examinations immediately after their primary education, despite having thousands of other opportunities in the private sector.

Since government jobs are so highly coveted, often candidates begin appearing for competitive examinations right after passing out from class 12. These examinations may have some variant eligibility criteria but the basic educational requirement is the completion of higher secondary education. Thousands of vacancies are released every year for varying posts in the departments of defence, banking and railways among others. If you are looking to secure placement in a government sector job, read on to learn the opportunities available for you.
