  • Mere sabi 600+ ke friend AAO Ko change kar rahe h pref order me Becz SAS is not v easy to clear
  • CSS>AAO for sure
    Aisa nhi h bhai...CSS is good but aao in home state is best..there is no transfer at all during entire service period...aao is posted in one single office for example the aao of up are posted in Allahabad, Bihar Patna jh Ranchi, mh nagpur mp Indore etc...there are few deputation offer also for the aao in c&ag n other financial institutions... aao has much more respect than the aao in CSS at any day...initial pay of aao is more than aso..although there is less avenue of promotion but if u join early then there are chances of becoming ia&as cadre officer at the fag end of the career having good promotion avenue...

    The only plus point of CSS is Delhi..but work pressure in few ministry are more..thus no time to study..on the other hand aao has lot of free time but not in Delhi..

    I was assistant in CSS for 19 months..
    for getting home state in AAO u must be in top 50 and that is not d case with every1...

    plus SAS, regional language xam are other challanges..

    rest up to candidate
    With 1200 vacancies or even 1000 is it necessary to be in top 50 to get home state ?

    yes because 90% of vacancies is in south....
  • Long story short

    Always choose an erstwhile 4600 grade pay job over AAO.

    If travelling , high possibility of workload and slow promotion aren't a dealbreaker when you are being offered a 4800 grade pay job , then prefer AAO to all erstwhile non-interview posts.

    If they are a dealbreaker , you would love to be an auditor in CAG instead of AAO in IA&AS.

    My cousin is an auditor for the last 5 years or so. He was eligible to appear for SAS and become AAO. He didn't even apply/appear because to him all India posting was a deal-breaker and he is happy as an auditor.

    He was also getting Excise Inspector in 2014 or maybe in 2015's CGL. He didn't join because he wasn't getting posting in south India.

    But you don't have to do what my cousin did. Because even I wouldn't follow my cousin in some cases but you need to what are your deal-breaking criteria and accordingly give preference.

  • Arey yaar exam toh pehle de do! Yaha trigno aur geo karke halat kharab ho rakhi hai, tumlog bol rahe ho is it worth it!

    This isnt a Mba placement season ki whether Hindustan Unilever is worth it or Cadbury is worth it!

    This is the govt sector with lakhs of aspirants contesting, so mere speculation wont do.. Work hard, expect less, speculate less and make yourself capable.
    Agreed bro


  • He was also getting Excise Inspector in 2014 or maybe in 2015's CGL. He didn't join because he wasn't getting posting in south India.
