8,000 CANDIDATES APPEAR FOR GOVERNMENT EXAM, ALL END UP FAILING

Over 8,000 candidates appeared for an accountant exam held by the state government of Goa. Surprisingly, it was announced on Tuesday by the Directorate of Accounts that not a single candidate passed the exam.

The exam was held in January. According to a government official, it was an easy-to-crack written examination. The exam was held to fill up 80 vacant posts announced by the government. Due to the disappointing results, a fresh test will be conducted again.

Since January, more vacancies have arisen. Reportedly, over 100 vacancies need to be filled now. The shortage of accountants has only become a burden to the existing staff.
