Who Should Apply Age 18–37 years (General category); SC/BC candidates get +5 years, Government employees get +8 years, PwD get +10 years relaxation.

Valid passport for all-India posting. Language requirement: Punjabi fluency an asset for Clerk (Accounts). This recruitment has distinct eligibility streams. If you hold a law degree and are below 37 years (45 with SC/BC relaxation), Clerk (Legal) is straightforward. Clerk (Accounts) requires graduation in Commerce, Statistics, Mathematics, or Accounts—or Matriculation plus Punjabi knowledge. Driver applicants need proof of 3 years' professional driving experience and valid heavy and light vehicle licences. Clerk (IT) demands an IT/CS graduate with a minimum 2-year IT background; candidates without verifiable experience will face rejection at document verification. Translator requires any degree plus 120 hours of computer training (a certificate, online course, or institutional diploma suffices). Field Artist is the most specialised—only graduates in Music, Drama, or Dance are eligible. Use the age calculator to verify your exact eligibility under your category's relaxation window.

Common Mistakes That Get Applications Rejected Photo and signature dimensions wrong: If your photo is larger than 3.5×4.5 cm or signature exceeds 3.5×1.5 cm, the portal will reject the upload. Resize before uploading. Incomplete education details: Leaving any year blank between 10th and degree, or forgetting to list experience for Driver or Clerk (IT) roles, triggers auto-rejection. Fill every field even if you skip a standard level. Age calculation error: Many candidates miscalculate relaxation. If you claim SC/BC relaxation (+5 years), your effective limit is 42, not 37. If Government employee (+8 years), it is 45. Claim the wrong category and you will be rejected at DV. Wrong or missing caste certificate: The certificate must be in the prescribed format issued by a state/district authority. Generic photocopies are rejected.
