Some of the prominent PSUs that use GATE scores for recruitment include BHEL, GAIL, NHPC, BSNL and DMRC. Candidates need to have valid and good GATE scores to be considered for recruitement, as competition is stiff.

The trend took off from there and GATE scores quickly turned into a benchmark that PSUs today use to screen and hire quality highly-educated graduates across various engineering disciplines. The number of vacancies that are filled in these companies through the PSU recruitment through GATE are huge; for instance BSNL hired a record-setting 2,510 GATE candidates this year.
