In India, a Govt Job (or an Indian Sarkari Naukri) is highly sought-after. It’s the ultimate career goal, offering long-term security, good benefits, and friendly co-workers. It is most

More than that, an Indian government job offers an opportunity to live a life of purpose.

It’s a way for you to give back to your community.

According to the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy Pvt. Ltd. (CMIE), the unemployment rate in India increased from 6.5% in November 2020 to 7.75% in October 2021. In this fluctuating market, there has been an increase in the demand for the stability and permanence offered by a Sarkari Naukri.

In addition, government jobs in India can be pretty lucrative offering competitive salaries, benefits, and pensions. Some of the highest-paid jobs in the Indian government include the Indian Administrative Services (IAS), Indian Foreign Services (IFS), and Indian Police Services (IPS).

• Job security — Government jobs give you stability. Private jobs need continuous upskilling and with age and family responsibilities people find it difficult to learn new things.
• Social respect :— We can not disintegrate from society completely. Specially in North India people don’t know much about private jobs. Their knowledge of private job is limited to some marketing companies or factories. So they don’t care about the money you are getting. I have experienced it. I attended a marriage. I was sitting with two more people. Suddenly they started talking who all had come to the function and they mentioned a few names with outmost respect and they all were government employees. People are mad for government jobs in rural areas.
• Salary:— Companies pay you for your skills. And some employees draw a handsome salary. But here is catch , employees get limited amount for medical emergencies, hardly any company pays fee of your kids, hardly any company reimburse petrol expanses, hardly any company gives Diwali bonus. Hardly any private company provides accomodation to employees. So considering all benefits I personally feel that government employees are not far behind.
• Time for self :— I literally carried my laptop with me even in marriage functions. We earn to live, we don’t live to earn. I can reject any offer on this criteria itself. Many of my colleagues were taking medicines for BP, Diabetes, depression etc. One has to justify each penny he gets. Once I was in hospital with my relatives and had to rush back to home to fix a production issue. They show you a different life on social media but private job keeps you under pressure all the time. Life is hell for target based jobs. Government jobs are miles ahead in this regard.
• Influence :— As a society we have a long way to go. This is ethically wrong but this is an advantage too. When you are in a government job you are heard by authorities. Things become easier for you everywhere.
• Contacts :— You get chance to work with politicians, bureaucrats. So you get chances to have contacts even in higher level of hierarchy . Even a drive of SDM is a powerful person

Keep in mind that these jobs are also highly competitive with a complex application process!
