 An increasing number of PSUs have been

recruiting on the basis of the GATE scores.

GATE 2014 saw 17 PSUs recruiting through

GATE scores. GATE 2015 saw a better num-

ber with 30 PSUs announcing recruitment through

GATE scores.

Recruitment by PSUs through GATE 2016 has started

 with 18 PSUs already having announced the details

 while more are expected to join in slowly. The number

of PSUs recruiting through GATE 2016 is expected to

be more.

RECRUITMENT THROUGH GATE

Some of the better known and preferred PSUs are

ONGC, BPCL, IOCL, HPCL, Powergrid, NTPC while

GAIL, BHEL are some which have announced their

recruitment through GATE 2016 after a gap of two

 years. The recruitment of the graduate engineers in

these companies is however through GATE scores as

has been seen in the past few years.

State owned PSUs like the WBSEDCL, PSTPC,

PSPCL, THDC etc are some that have joined in the fray

for recruitment through GATE scores.

The advantages are many for both the PSUs

as well as the students. In the earlier days

all the companies would hold their individual

entrance tests for recruitment. This involved

an inordinate amount of time, effort and cost for each

one of the said companies. The applicants were

many –thousands in fact for a low number of posts. The other part was that there was no fool proof sys-

tem of picking the right candidate who had qualified

in the entrance test. Many a times, fingers have been

pointed out – the most recent memory is that of

ONGC test paper leak 

For students, this system was a nightmare. It

involved preparing for many exams for a well-placed

 job with no proper time left for preparation. The

other part was the expense involved as most tests

required a small application fee. In cases where

no application fee had to be paid there still was

the cost of appearing for the test at one of the

limited exam centres specified by the companies.

 With the screening test being GATE, a lot of things

have fallen into place. First students needed to pre-

pare for a single entrance conducted by the IITs.

Reputed to be one of the toughest exams and clean

in its reputation, GATE turned to be an ideal answer to

 ADVANTAGES OF RECRUITMENT THROUGH GATE:

the PSUs in picking the best candidates for employ-

ment. The PSUs don’t spend any amount of money,

time or effort in the entrance test part. Instead, they

select candidates who qualify in GATE and start from

the interview part directly. GATE ensures the qual-

ity of the candidates considering that about 13% to

18% of the students actually qualify and pass theexam (as per GATE figures from recent years). The

other fact is also true that the number of GATE appli-

cants have increased due to the PSU recruitment.

From the student’s point of view, it entails preparation

for just a single entrance exam ensuring utilization of

precious time for strenuous single minded preparation

for success. Students also save money consider-

ing that they need to pay for the GATE application

though some PSUs do charge a small application

fee. In most cases there is no application fee though.

It is also an advantage that they need to prepare for

the exam in the subject of their specialization unlike

earlier days when most PSU entrance exams would

involve logical reasoning, GK and other such topics.

The general procedure for PSU Recruitment

is that all Applicants are required to apply

to each PSU individually as and when they

open their application portals. Another com-

mon factor is that all the PSU Applications entail the

requirement of the applicant’s GATE Registration No.

Candidates will also have to furnish their GATE AdmitCard, Score Card during the time of the interview.

Many applications require the uploading of the

photographs which also have to be identical to the

ones used for the GATE application. Candidates

 will also have to check the eligibili ty criter ia before

applying as the requirement of the PSUs differ in

terms of discipline, pass percentage of qualifying

exam and so on. Not all GATE applicants can apply

for the PSU recruitment. The other important fac-

tor is even if the candidates meet the criteria, they

must also ensure that they appear for the GATE

paper as specified by the PSUs to be considered.

Most of the PSUs do not charge any applica-

tion fee but there have been instances where a

small application fee has been charged. Candidates

 will also need to check for that before applying.

 Applicants must apply when the PSU appli-

cation portals are open. Candidates who

qualify and get the top scores amongst the

applicants will be called for the interviews.

 A general ratio of 7:1 is usual ly called for interviews

depending upon the vacancies. For a less number of

 vacancies, the ratio of students cal led for interviews

to the actual vacancies are considerably lower. Thisis generally because the students may or may not

 join the PSU especially the top rankers who will have

a good choice of jobs to choose from. Therefore

companies call in a large number of the eligible appli-

cants for the interviews.

 Applicants who get the call let ters for the interviews

 will have to do well in the interview to ensure selec-

tion. Some PSUs also hold Group Discussions.

Candidates must understand that the recruitment is

for the management cadre and hence the require-

ments include persons, who are team players; who

have a general awareness in addition to subject

knowledge. Candidates who are successful in the

interview, group discussions if any will be selected.

Some PSUs have their own method of normalization

 where the GATE scores are given 70% weightage and

the interview/Group Discussion the remaining 30%.

It can be safely said that candidates who have very

high scores in GATE will be called for the interviews.

The Service Bond is not mandatory for all PSUs

but many do have the system and implement it.

Most of the recruited candidates will be given hands

on training, work experience. It is but natural for anycompany to expect the effort to be invested in its

growth. This forms the main reason behind the service

bond that has to be signed by candidates in many

PSUs. The service bond clause entails giving two to

three years of service to the company after the pro-

bation period. The Service Bond is usually set for a

certain amount and has to be signed by the selected

candidates. Candidates must check for this before

applying. They must be sure that they understand the

modalities before signing.

Note that the service bond is not mandatory for all

PSUs.

This is a tricky part as there is no official know

how for the aspirants. But going by the experi-

ences of the selected candidates from the

previous years, any applicant is expected to

know the subject thoroughly. The main idea of an

interview is not to grill the applicants but to know about

the candidate, presentation skills, decisiveness and

other personality factors that a PSU may be looking for.

Since the candidates called for the interviews would

be the top scorers in GATE, they will be expected to

know their subject thoroughly.

Some tips for the PSU Interviews:Being well groomed is a must for every shortlisted

candidate. It is imperative that candidates are punctual

and on time for the interview. Knowledge of the sub-

 ject is a mandatory factor. In addition, the candidates

are expected to possess general awareness of the

country and current affairs. This means candidates

also must keep themselves up to date by reading the

newspapers and otherwise. A certain deference is

expected to be accorded to the panel which will be

interviewing the candidates. Any disagreement of view

point must be subtly put across.

Group discussions are grounds for putting the

individual views in front. It also is a ground for team

playing behavior, leadership qualities that may be

put in front of the interview panel. It definitely is not a

shouting match ground. Candidates need to be alert

in this regard. Another important point is that a group

discussion should be highly impersonal. Personal ego,

forceful attitudes should not have a place in there.
