CHANDIGARH: "Namaskar, I am calling from Rozgar Sahayta Kendra, Panchkula at the employment department, Haryana, will you be interested in a job in the private sector or only a government job?" To his surprise, a young boy from Sirsa, Ankit received a similar phone call a few days ago. He had never thought that the employment department, Haryana would call him to ask his preference regarding job. Not just Ankit, but more than one lakh educated youth of the state have received such phone calls.
Having portfolio of employment department, deputy CM, Dushyant Chautala had instructed the senior officials of the department to gather the data of unemployed youth searching for employment and from all over the state on the basis of their qualifications and choice. The work on this scheme is underway at the Call centre situated at Rozgar Bhawan, Panchkula. Till date 30,000 out of more than one lakh youth contacted by the department have specified their preference of job. Once the preference is specified by the youngster, a ticket is opened in his/her name and contacted with relevant information soon thereafter.
The employment department has already started working in the direction of providing jobs to unemployed youth as per their choice in private as well as government sector. For this, the department will keep up to date information regarding vacancies even in central government, other states, army, railways as well as in private companies and will provide eligible candidates as per their requirement.
