Don't you think that there will be a priority with the higher degree holder than a simple graduate in the interview round ? Assuming that a young graduate whose has passed his/her graduate but have qualified in the prelims and mains,will not they consider he/she is quite immature to hold the civil service post as he/she has less exposure and as well as mere experience. Please share your opinions.
