The Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC) has officially opened the application window for the recruitment of 313 posts of Junior Engineers (JE) and Librarians across different departments in the state. The notification marks a significant opportunity for job aspirants in Karnataka who hold relevant technical and library science qualifications.
As per the official advertisement, the positions are spread across multiple departments including public works, irrigation, archives and historical research, and other state administrative wings. The vacancies have been distributed between the JE and Librarian categories, with specific seat allocations announced for each department based on their operational requirements.
Candidates wishing to apply must register on the official KPSC website and fill out the online application form before the deadline. A non-refundable application fee is applicable, with relaxations granted for candidates from reserved categories as per state government norms. Applicants are advised to keep their scanned photographs, signatures, and supporting documents ready before starting the process.
Eligibility criteria require candidates to possess a degree or diploma in engineering from a recognized institution for the Junior Engineer posts, while candidates applying for Librarian positions must hold a Master's degree in Library and Information Science along with a professional library qualification as prescribed by the commission.
The selection process will typically involve a written examination followed by document verification. KPSC has emphasized that only shortlisted candidates meeting both educational and age criteria will be called for the examination. Candidates are encouraged to regularly check the official KPSC portal for updates on admit cards, exam schedules, and result declarations.
This recruitment drive is seen as a major step by the state government toward strengthening its technical and archival infrastructure, particularly in districts where such specialized posts have remained vacant for extended periods.
