State Capital Advantage

Thiruvananthapuram, being the capital city of Kerala, houses the vast majority of state government offices, departments, and secretariats. This includes the Kerala Secretariat, various directorates, and headquarters of numerous state-level public sector undertakings (PSUs) and autonomous bodies. The concentration of these administrative units naturally leads to a higher number of public sector job opportunities.

Concentration of Government Institutions

The district is home to major government educational institutions (e.g., University of Kerala, Government Medical College, Engineering Colleges) and large government hospitals (e.g., Government Medical College Hospital). Sectors like education and healthcare traditionally employ a significant number of women in Kerala, contributing substantially to the public sector workforce
