Asia Pacific Journal of Management & Entrepreneurship Research, 2(3), 21.http://ir-library.ku.ac.ke/handle/123456789/25024AbstaractDecision-making in selecting and recruiting persons to the civil service both in Kenya and India is a complex process involving conceptual, methodological, legal and practical considerations. In selecting aspirants, concerns arise about whether the eligibility criteria will produce the desired goals of the Government. One of the main problems in the recruitment and promotion systems of modern civil service both in Kenya and India is laying down proper qualifications/eligibility to suit the needs of the diverse tasks of administration. Broadly there are two types of qualifications required to recruit or promote civil servants: general qualifications, i.e., employee’s civil status, domicile, sex, age etc., and special qualifications, i.e., educational qualifications, experience, health status, etc. This study aims to broaden the understanding of various aspects considered before a person is recruited or promoted to the civil service.enRecruitmentPromotionCivil ServantsArticle
