Government exams in India are competitive tests conducted by different central and state authorities to recruit candidates for various government jobs. These exams are considered one of the most prestigious career gateways because they provide job security, a stable salary, allowances, and social respect. Broadly, government exams can be categorized into civil services, banking, staff selection, railways, defence, teaching, insurance, judiciary, and state-level recruitments.
