The Karnataka Exam Authority (KEA) on Tuesday officially announced the recruitment drive for 750 Land Surveyor vacancies, marking one of the largest state-level hiring exercises in the survey sector this year. Candidates interested in the role can submit their applications starting from the release date through the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (CET) online portal at cetonline.karnataka.gov.in. The notification outlines the detailed eligibility criteria, examination pattern, and application procedure for aspirants across Karnataka.
Land Surveyors play a critical role in Karnataka's infrastructure and land record management system. The position falls under the state's public works and revenue departments, where these officers are responsible for land measurement, boundary demarcation, map preparation, and data verification related to property records. With rural development and urban expansion projects accelerating across the state, the demand for qualified survey professionals has grown significantly, prompting the government to open these vacancies.
According to the official advertisement, applicants must possess a diploma in surveying from a recognized institution to be eligible. The selection process will likely involve a written examination followed by document verification, though the final schedule will be released separately. Candidates are advised to regularly check the KEA website and the CET portal for updates on admit cards, exam dates, and result declarations.
The opening of these applications comes at a time when many engineering and technical graduates in Karnataka are seeking stable government employment. With over seven hundred positions available, the recruitment drive offers substantial opportunity for young professionals in the surveying discipline. Authorities have emphasized that all recruitment will be conducted transparently and in accordance with state reservation policies.
