The online application process is currently open, and candidates are being urged to submit their forms before the deadline closes today.
Sub-Engineer is a Group C gazetted position in the Madhya Pradesh state services, typically under engineering and technical departments such as the Public Works Department (PWD), Road Buildings and Buildings Department, Irrigation Department, and Municipal Administration. These roles involve supervisory and executive responsibilities at the field level, including monitoring construction projects, ensuring quality control, managing resources, and coordinating with senior engineers on ground-level implementation.
Eligibility criteria require candidates to hold a diploma or degree in the relevant engineering discipline from a recognized institution. The upper age limit generally stands at 40 years for general category candidates, with relaxations applicable for reserved categories as per state government norms. Application fees vary by category, with concessions for economically backward sections.
The selection process will involve a written examination followed by document verification. Candidates who qualify the preliminary screening will be called for the main merit test, which will assess their technical knowledge and general aptitude. The final merit list will be prepared based on examination performance and reservation policy compliance.
Candidates interested in applying can visit the official MPPSC website and navigate to the recruitment section to access the online application form.
