GURUGRAM: A district employment fair at Government College for Women in Sector 14 on Monday, October 26, 2026, resulted in offer letters for 668 young people, according to an official Haryana release. The fair drew 1,456 candidates and 65 companies, providing a recruitment opportunity for jobseekers attending the college venue.
The release, published at 9:20 pm IST on October 26, says 980 candidates were shortlisted during the fair. The district administration's official college directory places the Government College for Girls on Mehrauli Road in Sector 14. The announcement records the fair's results; it does not announce another recruitment session at the campus.
What the recruitment figures show
The four published figures describe different parts of the recruitment exercise. There were 65 participating companies, 1,456 candidates, 980 shortlisted candidates and 668 young people who received offer letters. The release does not describe all shortlisted candidates as having received offers, so the two outcomes should be read separately.

Training links raised at the fair

Gurugram MLA Mukesh Sharma called for closer coordination between industrial companies and industrial training institutes. According to the release, he said companies should link with ITIs and help train young people for their requirements so that training could lead more readily to employment.
