Various Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) utilise GATE scores as a criterion for shortlisting candidates during their recruitment processes. Notable Navaratna, Maharatna, and Miniratna, including BHEL, BSNL, CIL, CRIS, CVPPL, and others, have incorporated GATE scores in their selection procedures. The central government now employs GATE scores for direct recruitment to Group-A level positions, such as Senior Field Officer (Tele), Senior Research Officer (Crypto), and Senior Research Officer (S&T) in the Cabinet Secretariat, Government of India. GATE qualification does not assure a PSU job, as it depends on the recruitment procedure of the concerned PSU.
