For every exam, the candidate has to satisfy the required qualifications. Those who are satisfying the requirements are allowed to apply online and asked to take a print out of that.

Usually for clerks and specialist officer, the exams are conducted for 200 marks; in addition to that, it also includes descriptive type for PO.
The exams are conducted in online mode and those who have cleared the exams are called for the interview. Successful candidates are intimated through mail and printed score cards with their obtained marks are also sent to them. After passing the interview session, they are appointed in the regions according to the marks.
