This portal facilitates registration of job seekers, job providers, skill providers, career counselors, local service providers, govt. departments etc.
NCS portal also provides job matching services in a highly transparent and user-friendly manner. These facilities along with career counseling content are delivered by the portal through multiple channels like career centers, mobile devices, Common Service Centres (LokMitra Kendras) etc.
