Rarely do they employ private candidates into these positions unless you are really a 100% match to what they are looking for and there is no one in line for the position.

He said those adv online for DD and above position are for those within the CS/PS to apply. Outsiders totally no case. He asked me to give up hope.

Any truth in what my friend said?
I don't agree that DDs and above in the civil service and stat boards are usually scholars. I've seen quite a number who are not. But I do observe that the ministries and stat boards tend to groom their people and so may have less need to parachute in people from outside for senior positions.
