6. The Apex Court In the case of U.P. State Road Transport Corporation (supra) held that the following would be kept in mind while dealing with the claim of trainees to get employment after successful completion of their training:

(i) Other things being equal, a trained apprentice should be given preference over direct recruits.
(ii) For this, a trainee would not be required to get his name sponsored by any Employment Exchange. The decision of this Court in Union of India v. Hargopal , would permit this.
(iii) If age bar would come in the way of the trainee, the same would be relaxed in accordance with what is stated in this regard, if any, in the concerned service rule. If the service rule be silent on this aspect, relaxation to the extent of the period for which the apprentice has undergone training would be given.
(iv) The concerned training institute would maintain a list of the persons trained year wise. The persons trained earlier would be treated as senior to the persons trained latter. In between the trained apprentices, preference shall be given to those who are senior.
