  • The Union Cabinet decided to set up a National Recruitment Agency (NRA) to conduct a common preliminary examination for various recruitments in the central government.
  • The NRA will conduct the Common Eligibility Test (CET) for recruitment to non-gazetted posts in government and public sector banks.
  • This test aims to replace multiple examinations conducted by different recruiting agencies for selection to government jobs advertised each year, with a single online test.
  • The present recruitment agencies – Staff Selection Commission (SSC), Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) and the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS) — will remain in place.
  • Initially, CET will cover recruitments made by three agencies: viz. SSC, RRB and IBPS at Group B and C (non - technical) posts.
  • CET will be a first level test to shortlist candidates and the score will be valid for three years.
  • National Recruitment Agency will be a Society registered under the Societies Registration Act,1860.
