Selection Process

Selection begins with a written test, and the merit list is prepared solely on the basis of written-test marks. Candidates must then pass the qualifying skill test: Senior Assistant applicants are assessed on typing at 35 words per minute and computer word-processing and spreadsheet proficiency; Superintendent applicants are assessed on computer applications, including word processing and spreadsheets; and Personal Assistant applicants must demonstrate stenography at 100 words per minute. Document verification and a recommendation by the Selection Committee follow. If written-test scores are tied, priority goes first to the candidate with more correct answers, then to the older candidate, and then to the candidate with higher marks in the qualifying examination. No TA/DA is paid for attending the tests.

Eligible candidates should complete both parts of the application process within the stated deadlines. Submit the SAMARTH form by 9 December 2026 and the required PDF through the post-specific Google Form by 14 December 2026.
