Government of India is directly entering competition with Nakuri.com, Monster.com, Shine.com, Glassdoor.com and other top job search website.  Government of India and Ministry of Labour & Employment has launched a National Career Service (www.ncs.gov.in) portal to connect the opportunities with the aspirations of youth and facilitate registration of job seekers, job providers, skill providers, career counsellors, etc.


The portal should provide job matching services in a highly transparent and user friendly manner. These facilities along with career counselling content will be delivered by the portal through multiple channels like career centers, mobile devices, CSCs, etc.
