## MINISTER OF STATE FOR LABOUR AND EMPLOYMENT (SUSHRI SHOBHA KARANDLAJE)

(a) to (c) The National Career Service (NCS) Portal is a one-stop solution for  providing  career  related  services  including  jobs  from  private  and government sectors, information on online & offline job fairs, job search & matching, career counselling, vocational guidance, information on skill development  courses,  skill/training  programmes  etc.  through  a  digital platform [www.ncs.gov.in] to all stakeholders across the country including rural and underserved regions like constituencies of BhiwaniMahendergarh.

The Ministry has signed partnership agreement with several private job portals like Quikr, Foundit, Quess  Corp, Teamlease  etc. and companies like Cygnus Medicare Pvt Ltd, TMI group and Amazon India etc. for  providing  opportunity  for  the  job  seekers.  The  vacancies available in these portals are also made available on NCS portal through the integrations. NCS portal is integrated with Skill India Digital Hub (SIDH) that is specially designed and developed to skill, reskill and upskill individuals through an online training platform for jobs and entrepreneurial opportunities.  The  integration  of  NCS  Portal  with  SIDH  has  paved  the way for the skilled jobseekers (employed/unemployed) on SIDH to avail the benefits of NCS Portal and the jobseekers (employed/unemployed) to avail  the  skilling  services  offered  by  SIDH.  Also,  the  NCS  portal  has integrated  with  Government  portals  such  as  Udhyam,  e-Shram,  Skill India portal, EPFO, ESIC, MHRD, DigiLocker and employment portals of various States; linkages with Government recruitment bodies like Union Public  Service  Commission,  Staff  Selection  Commission,  Agricultural Scientists  Recruitment  Board,  Railway  Recruitment  Boards  etc.  for making  available  scores  of  non-recommended  candidates  to  other employers to enable them to identify employable candidates.
