The selection process includes:

Candidates must ensure that all documents are clear, valid, and properly scanned before uploading. Any discrepancy or missing document may lead to rejection during final verification.

Application Instructions

The UPSSSC has provided two login methods for candidates during the recruitment process. Candidates can log in either using their PET registration details or through OTP-based authentication using registered credentials. After login, candidates can view their personal details, photo, and signature. They are required to carefully fill in post-related information and upload necessary documents.
