Pratibha Setu (Professional Resources and Talent Integration-Bus for Hiring Aspirants) is a forward-thinking initiative by UPSC that provides alternative job avenues for candidates who cleaned the Civil Services Examination and Interview phase, but are not selected in the end.
Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh appreciated the initiative, called it a “meaningful entrance” for candidates to channel his talent in new occasions. The platform is quickly drawing attention as a bridge between top talent and working organizations, both in private and public areas.
UPSC President Dr. Ajay Kumar said that 113 verified organizations are already on the ship, which shows interest in reaching this high quality pool of evaluated candidates. Many private companies are also contacting UPSC to recruit this talent base.
Unlike the first passive disclosure system, the revived Pratibha provides:
Interactive portal access to registered employers
Verified data of non-discriminated candidates prepared from UPSC exams: Civil Services
Indian forest service, Engineering services Joint medical services Direct recruiter-judged engagement.

Pratibha Setu expands the value of UPSC exams beyond the final merit list, able to tap the organizations into a well -developed talent. Dr. Singh emphasized this initiative as a model of skilled, transparent recruitment, addressing Kaushal-Astral and offering candidates who have awarded the career option.
