The primary examination conducted by the UPSC is the Civil Services Examination (CSE), which is considered one of the toughest competitive exams in India. The CSE is held annually and consists of three stages: the Preliminary examination (Prelims), the Main examination (Mains), and the Personality Test (Interview). The Prelims is an objective type examination, while the Mains and the Personality Test are subjective in nature.
Apart from the CSE, the UPSC also conducts several other examinations, including the Indian Forest Service Examination, Engineering Services Examination, Combined Medical Services Examination, and Central Armed Police Forces Examination, among others.
The UPSC is responsible for ensuring a fair and transparent selection process for these examinations. It releases notifications and advertisements regarding the examination dates, eligibility criteria, syllabus, and other important details. Candidates who qualify the exams conducted by the UPSC are recommended for appointments to various government services and posts, such as the Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Police Service (IPS), Indian Foreign Service (IFS), and other central civil services.
The UPSC conducts examinations in various centers across India and follows a rigorous selection process to identify candidates with the right skills, knowledge, and aptitude to serve in the civil services and other government positions.
