Mr. Mandaviya highlighted the NCS portal's transformative role in bridging the gap between jobseekers and employment opportunities, both within India and abroad.

"The NCS portal has become a crucial gateway, connecting millions of jobseekers with employers at the national and international levels. With the addition of 3,000 to 4,000 job postings daily, this MoU is expected to bring 1.25 lakhs international vacancies and over 10 lakhs domestic vacancies to NCS each year, significantly boosting employment prospects for Indian youth," he stated.

"With over 40 lakh employers registered, the portal has facilitated the mobilisation of more than 4.40 crore vacancies since its inception. At any given time, nearly 10 lakh job vacancies are available, ensuring a steady flow of opportunities for the youth," he added.

Mr. Mandaviya said the NCS portal's integration with the e-migrate platform, under which more than 500 active recruitment agencies registered with the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) have been onboarded.
