New Delhi, June 10 (IBNS): In a major development, the Centre has opened the doors of bureaucracy to skilled people from the private sector of the country.

The Centre has invited applications for recruitment in 10 senior level posts, reports said.

The Central government has invited for applications for 10 posts of joint secretaries in different ministries under the “lateral entry” scheme.

The Times of India reported: " As per the criteria fixed by the government, the applicant must be of 40 years of age as on July 1 and a graduate from a recognized university or institute. Higher qualifications would be an added advantage. They will be appointed for three years and the government can also extend the contract to up to five years. To ensure that highly professional persons apply for the job, the selected candidates will be offered a salary of Rs 1.44 lakh to Rs 2.18 lakh per month and would also get allowances and facilities as applicable to the equivalent level in the Central government."

Invitation for recruitment of this kind has been made for the first time by the Centre.

The notification was made by the  Department of Personnel Training.

Recruitments will be made in departments like  Revenue, Financial Services, Economic Affairs, Commerce and Civil Aviation.
