Yes, final-year degree candidates may register for the preliminary screening. They must, however, pass their final qualifying degree examination and present all required passing certificates before the prescribed cutoff date set for the main examination registration.
Is a government typing certificate compulsory for all advertised posts?
No, typing certification is only mandatory for Clerk-Typist and Tax Assistant posts. You need a Government Commercial Certificate in typing with at least 30 wpm in Marathi or 40 wpm in English. Technical posts like Assistant Motor Vehicle Inspector do not require typing credentials.
What is the negative marking scheme in the preliminary test?
The Group C preliminary test follows a negative marking penalty of 0.25 marks, meaning one-fourth mark is deducted for every incorrect response. Unanswered questions attract no deduction. Scores are calculated from total marks after subtracting penalties.
What educational qualifications are required for the AMVI post?
Candidates applying for Assistant Motor Vehicle Inspector must hold a 3-year diploma or degree in Mechanical or Automobile Engineering from an approved institution. In addition, candidates must possess a valid driving licence for light and heavy motor vehicles as prescribed in the service rules.
Is knowledge of Marathi mandatory to apply for these posts?
