Competition Commission seeks applications for 45 positions

Fair trade watchdog Competition Commission is looking to fill as many as 32 professional staff vacancies, including positions for advisers and directors.
Besides, there are about 13 vacancies for support staff. All the positions would be filled up on a deputation basis, initially for a period of one year.
Competition Commission of India (CCI) keeps a tab on unfair trade practices across sectors.
Out of the vacancies for 32 professional staff, there are positions for 14 joint directors and 12 deputy directors. Also, applications have been sought for the post of four advisers -- two each for financial analysis and economics -- and two directors.

Applicants must be employees of central or state governments, government companies or regulatory authorities, among others.
The appointment, on deputation on foreign service basis, would be initially for one year, according to CCI.
In the last financial year (2012-13), as many as 97 of the 197 sanctioned posts were vacant at the Commission.
The Commission consists of one chairperson and six members, who are supported by officers and staff. Recently, the CCI had sought applications for posts of three members.
