Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on Tuesday said one-year work experience would be made "compulsory" for recruitment in state government departments.
He said fresh candidates would not be taken directly into government service. Aspirants would have to get experience by working in the private sector before applying for government jobs.
Addressing a function at Taleigao village in North Goa, Sawant said one-year work experience would be made mandatory for those looking for government jobs in the future.
Such a practice would help the government get skilled manpower, said the chief minister.
The CM said necessary amendments would be made to Recruitment Rules (RRs) to ensure only suitable candidates are selected for vacant posts.
