UPSC to Send Recruitment Alerts to Institutions Amid Low Application Numbers

To address low application numbers UPSC will start sending recruitment alerts directly to educational institutions

UPSC Recruitment Alert

Union Public Service Commission has launched new email alert service to keep universities and professional institutions informed about central government job vacancies. This initiative aims to ensure that candidates do not miss out on opportunities due to lack of timely information.

Explaining this move, UPSC Chairman Dr. Ajay Kumar said that many recruitment drives have seen poor response with too few applicants or no suitable candidates shortlisted. “Sometimes posts remain vacant or lapse during the interview stage because appropriate candidates aren’t available,” he added.

How will Universities or Institutes get Recruitment Alerts?

Institutions can now receive UPSC recruitment alerts directly in their inboxes. To subscribe they simply need to send email to ra-upsc@gov.in with subject line: “Subscription Request - UPSC Recruitment Alerts.” This will help them stay informed about vacancies relevant to their domains.

Meanwhile, ministries and departments have been instructed to circulate these notifications on their respective platforms and public broadcasters may also be roped in to enhance visibility.

Previously UPSC relied on its website or Employment News and LinkedIn to advertise vacancies. With email alerts now being sent directly to institutions Commission hopes to reach suitable candidates more quickly and increase UPSC applications particularly for specialised roles.
