Discontinue personality test in KPSC recruitment: Congress leader

Congress vice-president S.A. Hussain has called for the removal of the personality test in Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC) recruitment, urging Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar to take the same action. In a letter to the Chief Minister, Hussain argued that the interview stage offers no lasting record and contributes little to the assessment of merit.

Both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana have eliminated the personality test, and the Union Government has disbanded interviews for Group B, C and D posts. Karnataka has also removed interviews for Group A and Group B positions, according to Hussain.
