Assalam o Aliqum Community Member!

I want my seniors to guide me on this, whether it's necessary to hold a Masters degree for appearing in Competitive Exams or we can give it a go after Bachelors (4 years)...i mean to ask whether MA holders are given preference over the Bachelors when it comes to posting or over all candidate's evaluation in interviews or both are treated equally, just on the basis of their Competitive Examination's results?

Is Master's highly recommended before CSS..?
