A Ministry of Labour and Employment update published in August 2026 reported more than 17.68 lakh active vacancies on the portal as of 15 July 2026.
That figure is a dated snapshot, not a live vacancy count. Create or update your profile, check the date and employer details on each listing, and use the portal’s official services rather than paying an agent for placement.

Official Job Notifications
Government employment resource · Updated listings
The Government of India’s Employment News portal publishes job highlights and career guidance covering recruitment by public organisations and institutions. It can help candidates discover advertisements, but each listing must be checked against the detailed notice issued by the recruiting body.
Pay close attention to the publication date and closing date. A vacancy appearing on a listing page may already be closed, and eligibility conditions can vary significantly between posts.
