Dear all Library professional
I was one of the candidate ,who appear in walk in interview in IGNOU University for the post of project asst.on dated 8-07-2016..But I am very disheartened and you will be surprise to know the result of written exam .
There was very unfair selection process for the total candidate attend this interview around 400 and total post is 15 but after the written exam result they have selected only 21 candidate for interview i think this very unfair to all library professional those have attend this written exam .They have played discrimination with most of the candidates .
because according to interview rules & regulation there must be 3 candidate for one post but they have selected only 21 candidates for 15 post and this is unjustified .
with disheartened

Dear Sri Vikram RaghuVanshi,
I read your post with a heavy heart.It is indeed painful for all aspirant candidates if they do not get opportunity to face the final round of selection.
I sincerely hope that you will get even better opportunity for more prospective career building.
However, regarding selection process normally, certain prefixed criteria are set especially when applicants are more and vacancies are less. Often the authority fix a particular percentage of marks as minimum. They are treated as MINIMUM QUALIFYING MARKS (MQMs) in the written tests. Admittedly, there is no fixed rules of such marking as far as I know but normally it lies between 40% to 50% Candidates scoring above this fixed MQMs are called for interview.
Honestly speaking, I have no idea about the norms fixed by the IGNOU. Even I do not know whether they had any prefixed norms at all, but generally speaking only the candidates scored above the MQMs are called for interview. Even the MQMs are raised "on the spot" to minimize the number of interviewees!! which however, seems to be irrational to me (because in the same philosophy the MQMs can be decreased at any time if sufficient number of people are not found to score beyond the prefixed MQMs and re-advertising for the same vacancy with arrangement for another round of Written Tests & Interview seems to be critical, complicated and time consuming)
The IGNOU authority, if they had any prefixed norms, should have mentioned this at the very beginning without disclosing the MQMs. Had they done so, I feel people were not so frustrated! Never-the-less there had been transparency throughout the entire process. It is a pity that in our country the recruiters often do not try to understand the agony of the applicants and devise suitable norms for recruitment and make such norms known to the applicants. As I suspect sometimes they willingly do not care for such issues as they well understand that there is no dearth of candidates in the market but the recruiters should have a sense of concern and sympathy towards the applicants.
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray
