How state recruitment works
Read each notification on the official Kerala Public Service Commission (Kerala PSC) website or the relevant state board, apply online in the given format before the last date, then clear the written exam, skill test or interview it lists. Bring original documents for verification.
Contract posts, PSUs and many interviews still ask for a resume.
What to put on the resume
Give qualifications with year, board or university and marks exactly as on your certificates, exact start and end dates for every job, duties in plain words, and your level in Malayalam and English. Add computer skills and typing speed if the post needs them. The government jobs resume example shows a filled sample.
Private employers too
The same resume, with a stronger summary and results, works for private employers in healthcare and nursing, tourism and hospitality and IT. City guides: Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram.
Frequently asked questions
Which language skills help?
Malayalam and English are useful for most state posts and for customer-facing private roles. List your level in each.
Where do I check official notices?
On the official website of the Kerala Public Service Commission (Kerala PSC) or the relevant recruitment board. Do not pay anyone who promises a government job.
