The government has announced a significant recruitment drive targeting candidates who have completed their 12th grade education, opening 2,536 vacant positions across multiple departments and organizations. The notification, released in recent days, marks one of the largest single recruitment exercises aimed at 12th-pass candidates in recent years.

The vacancies span a range of Group C and Group D posts, including roles in administrative support, technical assistance, clerical work, and operational positions across various state and central government bodies. Candidates holding a passing mark in the 12th standard examination from any recognized educational board are eligible to apply. Some positions may also accept candidates with anITI qualification as equivalent to the 12th standard, depending on the specific post requirements.

The application window is now open, and aspirants are urged to complete their submissions before the deadline. Online applications are to be submitted through the official recruitment portal, where candidates must register with valid credentials and fill in personal details, educational qualifications, category information, and upload required documents such as photographs, signatures, and relevant certificates. A non-refundable application fee applies, with prescribed concessions for candidates belonging to reserved categories.

The selection process is expected to involve a computer-based written examination followed by document verification for shortlisted candidates. Preparation guidelines and the detailed notification, including the complete list of posts, age limits, and exam schedules, have been published on the official recruitment website. Authorities have requested candidates to regularly check the portal for updates regarding admit card releases and exam dates.

This recruitment drive comes at a time when unemployment among young graduates and school-leavers remains a pressing concern across the country. With over two thousand five hundred positions now available, the announcement is being viewed as a welcome opportunity for millions of aspirants who have been waiting for a stable government employment pathway after completing their schooling.
