Current Affairs News:
As many as
8,000 candidates appeared for an examination conducted for 80 posts of
accountant in the Goa government,
but all failed the test.
The
candidates, all graduates, needed to secure a minimum of 50 marks out of the
total 100 to qualify but none got it, a senior official said on condition of
anonymity.
Goa's
director of accounts, in a
notification issued yesterday, said none of the candidates, who appeared for
the initial recruitment examination held on January 7 this year, secured the
minimum qualifying marks required to get through.
The
Directorate of accounts had advertised 80 posts of accountant in the common
account cadre in October last year.
The
five-hour examination included a 100 marks paper on English, general knowledge
and accounts-related questions, the official said.
The
successful candidates were supposed to go through a round of oral interview
before the final selection.
