List of PSU recruiting through GATE 2012– Notification Eligibility Forms
|
|
October 23, 2011
|
|
|
|
At this moment, close to 1500 jobs are available for freshers in engineering disciplines in major PSU (Public Sector Undertaking) in India – the list includes heavyweights like IOCL, NTPC, BHEL, Power Grid etc.
All these public sector companies are going to recruit ET (Engineer Trainee) based on GATE scores. At first they would shortlist the candidates based on GATE score and than they would be called for further selection process which consists of GD & Interview.
No wonder therefore, number of applicant in GATE 2012 has touched a mind boggling figure of 11, 39,395. Compare this with number of applicants in GATE 2011: 5, 52,530 & GATE 2010: only 4, 14, 093. Yes, the number of GATE applicants have more than doubled compared to last year. Most of these applicants actually would not go for higher studies, but are appearing in GATE for selections to the PSUs.
Which are these PSUs recruiting through GATE? Is there a list on the net? I failed to find any and have therefore prepared this ready reckoner by compiling the data from individual company recruitment websites. The idea is to give you all the details required to apply for these PSU ET jobs – you can download the notification, find the eligibility and the application form with form submission dates. You can also find which GATE subjects to appear for which PSU company from following table:
It is needless to say that GATE 2012 application form last date is over on 21st October, 2011. If you had not applied for GATE 2012, you can not apply for the ET jobs in these companies. If you do not know what is GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering), please go through my previous blog article titled: GATE 2012 Notification, Eligibility & Forms.
If you have however applied, you would be able to download your GATE Admit card from 2nd January, 2012 onwards. On this admit card would be printed your GATE-2012 Registration Number. You have to use this Registration Number to apply for the ET jobs in the individual company recruitment websites, the date and link of which has been given below.

This ET recruitment process of using the GATE score was first started by IOCL in 2009. But now, as you have found more are joining the bandwagon. I am sure that in the future years, more and more companies like ONGC, HPCL, BPCL, GAIL etc. are going to follow GATE-scores for recruitment.
The PSU list recruiting through GATE as given above is not exhaustive. These are only live cases of the companies in which you can apply. There are other PSU like BARC as given below which also uses GATE score for Engineer/Scientist recruitment.
So take your studies in engineering days seriously – yes, GATE can be your GATE-way for that elusive first job! Best wishes!

Age of eligibility – how to find if you are eligible?
|
|
October 22, 2011
|
|
|
|
This is a very trivial thing to write about – almost all of you know how to find the difference in between two dates and hence you may consider this blog post not worth reading. However, there are still a few among you who may have confusions and it is for these small section of confused persons that this blog article is being written about. Believe me, I got a handful of mails asking me to post this.
The problem: Say the news paper ad or the website notification on recruitment/entrance exam says this about the eligibility on age: Your age should be minimum 17 years & maximum 21 years as on 01.01.2012. Now suppose your Date Of Birth (DOB) is dd.mm.yyyy. Question on your mind is: “Are you eligible?”
The easy solution:  To find the DOB of minimum age: Just subtract minimum age from the reference year – i.e. say for the example above, subtract 17 from 2012 to arrive at DOB of minimum age as shown at right. So this DOB is 01.01.1995.
To find the DOB of maximum age:  Subtract the maximum age from the reference year. Also add “1” to the date of reference – i.e. say for the example above, subtract 21 from year 2012 and add 1 to the date 01 as shown at right. And this DOB is 02.01.1991.
Now if you are within the above dates (and including them), you are eligible. i.e. you are eligible if your DOB is 01.01.1995 but not eligible if the DOB is 02.01.1995.
Similarly you are eligible if your DOB is 02.01.1991 but not eligible if the DOB is 01.01.1991. This maximum age is sometime confusing – because say, if your DOB is 01.01.1991, your age actually is 21 on 01.01.2012 and hence you should be eligible. So just contact the person concerned and clarify if your DOB is such like that.
How to find your age on a certain date: Say if your DOB is 02.01.1995, you are not eligible in above example. Why? What is your age on 01.01.2012? 
To find your age at first you should know how many days each month of the year comprises of. If you do not know that, take help of the graphics on your knuckle (presented by BC Akhilesh) at right – each month at the hump is 31 days – Jan, Mar, May, Jul, Aug, Oct, Dec. Remaining, except Feb are 30 days.
February in leap year is 29 days, otherwise it is 28 days. How do you find a leap year? Take the year and divide it by 4 – if it is divisible, it is a leap year. But for centenary years (i.e. last 2 digits “00” – say 2000, 2100 etc.), you have to divide it by 400, instead of 4.
So with above information and your DOB 02.01.1995, let us find your age on 01.01.2012. Step-1: Find days  First deduct the dates – now since you can not deduct 2 from 1 as shown below, borrow days from the month – since the month is January, add 31 to 1 – which makes it 32 days. Now deduct 2 from 32 – which gives you 30 days.
Step-2: Find months  Than deduct the months – now you are left with “00” months as shown below. So borrow 12 months (i.e. 1 year) from the year – add 12 to “00” – which makes it 12 months. Now deduct 1 from 12 – which gives you 11 months.
Step-3: Find years  Than deduct the year – now you are left with year “2011” as shown below. So deduct 1995 from 2011 – which gives you 16 years.
So your age is: 16 years, 11 months & 30 days on 01.01.2012. That’s why you are not eligible, since minimum age is 17 years.
Hope with above illustrations you can easily find whether you are age-wise eligible for any exam - be it in an entrance or a recruitment or a scholarship exam. That was easy, wasn't it? Labels: Freshers Job Tools |

To know about the exam:
To prepare for the exam:
To have some idea on how much mark to score in IIT-JEE:
These blog articles would throw some interesting information for you. For instance, you know that IIT-JEE is supposed to be conceptual and is a very hard exam to crack. But do you know that with as little as 20/160 (12.5%) in Chemistry, 20/160 (12.5%) in Physics and 34/160 (21.25%) in Maths students in General category have qualified in IIT-JEE?
Having said those, let’s come back to the topic of this article: IIT JEE 2012 exam notification.
Important dates for IIT JEE 2012 exam: Date of notification: 17.10.2011.
Dates for IIT-JEE 2012 Online Form: Online form submission starts on: 31.10.2011. Last date of Online form submission: 10.12.2011. Dates for IIT-JEE 2012 Offline Form at bank branches: Availability of JEE-2012 Offline form starts on: 11.11.2011. Last date of availability of JEE-2012 Offline form: 05.12.2011.

IIT JEE 2013 exam date forecast: Some of you may be appearing in IIT-JEE 2013 - YES, you can appear in IIT-JEE only twice, that too in consecutive years. To be able to appear in JEE 2013, you must have appeared in JEE for the first time in 2013 or must have appeared in it only once before - in IIT-JEE 2012.
To help you know about the IIT JEE 2013 exam date in advance, I had carried out a trend analysis of IIT JEE exam dates for last 3 years from JEE 2010 to JEE 2012. I find that almost all of the dates (date of notification, form submission dates, exam dates & result dates) are fairly predictable. From the data given below, you can find exam dates of IIT JEE 2013:  As you can find from above JEE dates, the notification for IIT JEE comes out in the last week of October/First week of November. The JEE form becomes available from first week of November and the last date of form submission is sometime in the middle of December. Date of JEE Exam is always on the second Sunday of April while the result is declared in the last week of May.
Keeping these exam date trends in mind, following date for IIT JEE 2013 is forecasted: Date of IIT JEE 2013 notification: 20/10/2012 (Sat) Last date of receipt of IIT JEE 2013 completed form: 20/12/2012 (Thurs) Date of IIT JEE 2013 Exam: 14/04/2013 (Sun) Using the same analysis, you can also find the date of IIT JEE 2014.
Kindly note that above are only forecasted dates to help you know about the schedule of IIT JEE approximately. Nearer notification date (say from last week of October), please check on the IIT Websites (say this IITD JEE website) and also subscribe to leading national dailies and Employment news/rozgar samachar. As I told you, I would look out for more info/prep materials for IIT JEE 2012 and post the same in this blog as and when I find them. So keep visiting me!

NTPC ET Recruitment 2012 Notification Eligibility Form
|
|
October 17, 2011
|
|
|
|
 NTPC every year issues notification for recruitment of engineer trainees (ET). Just like 520 ET vacancies in 2011, NTPC has issued recruitment notification for 300 Engineering Executive Trainees for the year 2012 too, from the disciplines of Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Instrumentation & Electronics.
What are the eligibilities and how to apply for these engineer trainee positions in NTPC? This is the subject matter of current blog article.
But before we go further, a small introduction on NTPC.
What is NTPC: NTPC (National Thermal Power Corporation) is one of the five Maharatna PSU in India – it is India’s largest power company, producing 1/3rd of total power generation in India through its 22 power stations (15 coal based & 7 gas based) with an installed capacity of 34,845 MW. It also ranks as 348th in Forbes ‘Global 2000’ list of companies.
In 2008, it ranked as No. 1 in 'Best Workplaces for Large Organizations' and eighth overall by Great Places to Work in collaboration with the Economic Times.
Change in NTPC ET Recruitment process: From 2012 onwards, there has been a major change in how NTPC is going to recruit Engineer Trainees - till 2011, NTPC used to conduct its own Written recruitment test which was of 2 hour duration having two papers: Aptitude & Technical. The selection process for ET was hence: Written Test -> GD/Interview.
But from 2012 onwards NTPC is not going to conduct the written test itself - it is going to use the GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) scores to shortlist the candidates for its further selection process. The changed selection process form now onwards would be GATE-> GD/Interview.
Hence for the ET positions in NTPC from now onwards, you have to appear in GATE relevant to your discipline and do well in the same, so that you can be shorlisted by NTPC for GD & Interview.
Branch-wise NTPC ET vacancies for 2012: A total of 300 ET vacancies exists: Electrical(112), Mechanical(89), Civil(38), Instrumentation(31), Electronics(30).
NTPC ET Salary: Salaries offered by NTPC for ET is: pay scale of Rs. 24900-50500 at the basic pay of Rs. 24900/- during one-year training and than basic pay of Rs. 25650/-, after completion of the training period. This is apart from other benefits.
Eligibility for NTPC Engineer Trainee :Age Eligibility: For ET: Maximum 27 years as on 01.01.2012. Age relaxations exists for reserved categories.
Educational Eligibility: For ET: Minimum: 55% marks for SC, ST and Physically Challenged & 65% marks for others.. If you are a Final year / semester student than you may also apply.
Since you have to appear in GATE for these ET positions, it is needless to say that you also have to possess the eligibility for GATE, details of which can be found in my blog article titled: GATE 2012 Notification, Eligibility & Forms.
How to apply for NTPC ET Recruitment 2012: You have to register (i.e. apply) actually twice for NTPC ET positions, since GATE score is mandatory from 2012 onwards: Once for GATE & than for NTPC.
First you have to apply online for GATE 2012. How to apply for for GATE has been described in detail in this webpage. Last date for applying online for GATE 2012 is now 21st October, 2012. So better hurry!
Subsequent to your online registration for GATE, you would be able to download the GATE 2012 Admit card from 2nd January, 2012 onwards. Now you have to use the "GATE-2012 Registration Number" as given in the admit card to register online for NTPC ET Recruitment 2012.
The NTPC ET Recruitment 2012 Online form would be available from 6th January-2012 till 26th January-2012 in this NTPC Career website.  How to apply online for the NTPC recruitment is described clearly in section "HOW TO APPLY:" of the NTPC job advertisement for Executive Trainees 2012.
IMPORTANT NTPC ET Recruitment 2012 DATES: Last date of online registration for GATE: 21.10.2011. Date of availability of GATE 2012 Admit Card (hence GATE-2012 Registration Number): 02.01.2012. Start date of online registration for NTPC ET Recruitment 2012: 06.01.2012. Last date of online registration for NTPC ET Recruitment 2012: 26.01.2012. Date of GATE-2012 exam: 12.02.2012.
Subsequent to your online registration for ET positions, NTPC would procure the GATE scores from GATE authority, shortlist the candidates and if you are within the merit list, would call you for the subsequent selection process - that is Group Discussion & Personal Interview.
In my subsequent blog post, I would cover more on GATE exam preparation and NTPC ET GD & Interview materials. So keep visiting this blog! Labels: NTPC Recruitment |
