Reflect on the kind of jobs you intend to apply for through government exams and why you are looking at a government job. The most direct path into government service is through the teaching exams such as Central Teacher Eligibility Test conducted by the CBSE or the state Teacher Eligibility Tests (depending on your state). The first exam makes you eligible to apply in Kendriya Vidyalayas, Navodaya Vidyalayas and private schools across India. The second will allow you to apply for primary teacher positions in government schools within that state. You will also need to take the recruitment exams conducted by various bodies such as Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan, Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti, and State-specific Teacher Recruitment Boards. Beyond this, you can also consider Banking Exams, Railway Recruitment Board Exams, State Public Service Commission exams but many of these need a Bachelor’s degree as a mandatory requirement.
