Boosting Employment Opportunities Through NCS Portal Revolution
The National Career Service (NCS) portal, which is managed by the ministry of labour and employment, has been a key platform for connecting employers with job seekers. In response to the increasing demand, the government is gearing up to launch NCS 2.0 with cutting-edge technologies like Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. This second-generation version of the portal is expected to revolutionize job matching processes and skill enhancement capabilities.
Government officials are keen on enhancing industry connect to boost the employability of candidates using the NCS portal. By gathering feedback from companies on the qualifications and skills they seek in potential employees, the NCS aims to provide candidates with relevant skilling courses to improve their chances in the job market. The focus is not only on increasing the number of vacancies on the portal but also on shortlisting the most suitable candidates for these jobs.
Since its launch in 2015, the NCS portal has been a comprehensive platform offering various employment-related services. Apart from job vacancies, the portal provides career counselling, vocational guidance, and information on job fairs to aid job seekers in their career pursuits. Additionally, the portal collaborates with private job portals and state facilities to ensure nationwide coverage and access to diverse job opportunities for users. The integration of NCS with the private sector and state resources highlights the government's commitment to fostering a robust employment ecosystem.
