The National Career Service (NCS) Portal, under the Ministry of Labour and Employment, has achieved a significant milestone by surpassing 2 million active vacancies as of July 30, 2024. This accomplishment highlights the platform’s growing influence and effectiveness in bridging the gap between job seekers and employment opportunities across various sectors.

The sustained efforts by the Ministry of Labour and Employment and regular interactions with employers, industry bodies, and staffing agencies have significantly boosted the portal’s acceptance and attraction among recruiters.

The NCS portal offers various employment-related services, including job search and matching, career counselling, vocational guidance, information on skill development courses, and internships. These services support job seekers, employers, employment exchanges (career centres), counsellors, training providers, educational institutions, and placement organisations.

The NCS Portal has emerged as a crucial resource for job seekers, with vacancies mobilised through various channels, including direct employer reporting, job fairs, and API integration with several private job portals. The job opportunities available on the NCS Portal span multiple industry sectors, with notable vacancies in finance and insurance (1.47 million), operations and support (108,000), other service activities (75,000), manufacturing (71,000), transport and storage (59,000), IT and communication (58,000), education (43,000), wholesale and retail (25,000), and health (20,000). This diverse range of vacancies reflects the broad spectrum of employment needs and industry demands nationwide.

Most current job openings are well-suited for candidates with educational backgrounds up to the 12th standard, ITI, and diploma holders. At the same time, specialised positions are also available for individuals with higher education or expert qualifications. This wide-ranging assortment of vacancies underscores the NCS Portal’s commitment to catering to different skill levels and professional expertise.

This landmark achievement demonstrates the NCS Portal’s growing influence in fostering a dynamic and robust labour market, providing a critical platform for employment opportunities and career development.

In its ongoing effort to enhance the NCS portal, the Ministry of Labour and Employment is working towards upgrading the platform to NCS 2.0, incorporating advanced technologies, including Artificial Intelligence. This upgrade aims to provide more benefits and features to all stakeholders, especially job seekers and employers.
