Departmental recruitment is different from open competitive recruitment
Departmental examinations and recruitments can have eligibility conditions linked to existing government service, cadre or department. Candidates should therefore read the applicable notification carefully instead of treating this as a general public recruitment opportunity.
The eligibility section should be checked first, followed by the department-specific instructions, examination schedule and application procedure stated by UPSC.
