Selection Process

Selection is through a Computer Based Test (CBT)/OMR-based examination, conducted in two phases:

• Preliminary Examination: 120 objective/multiple-choice questions, 2 hours duration — General Studies (30), Jharkhand-related Knowledge (60), General Mathematics (10), General Science (10), Mental Ability Test (10). Generally NOT conducted if total applications are below 50,000 (Commission may decide otherwise based on circumstances).
• Main Examination: Conducted for all candidates (or directly, if Preliminary is skipped).

Each question carries 3 marks; 1 mark is deducted for each wrong answer. The exam medium is Hindi/English. If a subject’s exam is conducted across multiple groups/shifts, scores will be normalized, with the formula published separately on the JSSC website. Final merit is based on normalized marks.

Why You Should Apply

This is a significant opportunity to secure a stable Jharkhand State Government job across health, statistics, veterinary, and fisheries departments, with 326 vacancies spread across 6 distinct posts at the Intermediate qualification level — making it accessible to a wide pool of 10+2/Intermediate-qualified candidates in Jharkhand.

Preparation Tips

• Focus heavily on Jharkhand-related General Knowledge, as it carries the highest weightage (60 out of 120 questions) in the Preliminary Examination.
• Strengthen your General Studies, General Mathematics, General Science, and Mental Ability sections, which together make up the remaining 60 questions.
• Since there is negative marking (-1 for each wrong answer, +3 for correct), attempt questions strategically and avoid random guessing.
• Keep your caste/EWS/local residence certificates updated and in the exact prescribed format specified in the official brochure — invalid-format certificates will not be accepted.
• Register early within the 20 July-19 August 2026 window to avoid last-minute technical issues, and use the correction window only for genuine errors.
