Ten Times Candidate Selection for Written Exam
As per the notification, the Haryana Staff Selection Commission (HSSC) will shortlist candidates for the skill and/or written examination based on their CET marks. The maximum number of candidates eligible to appear for the skill/written examination shall be ten times the total number of posts advertised. If multiple candidates achieve the same CET score at the cutoff point, all such candidates will be allowed to appear in the next stage. This ensures fairness and provides equal opportunities for candidates with tied scores.
In cases where fewer eligible candidates apply, the Commission may extend the application deadline to invite additional applicants. This provision helps maintain a competitive pool while adhering to transparency in the recruitment process.
