Important Dates

Event Date
Online Application Begins September 8, 2026
Last Date for Online Application October 7, 2026
Application Correction Window October 12–14, 2026
Proposed Written Examination November 15, 2026

The November 15 examination schedule is proposed and should not be treated as an irreversible final date. Candidates should follow subsequent UKSSSC notices in case the examination schedule is revised.

Eligibility Criteria

There is no single educational qualification applicable to all 553 vacancies.

Several Junior Assistant and comparable posts require candidates to have passed the Intermediate/Class 12 examination or possess an equivalent recognized qualification. Depending on the post, additional computer, typing, technical, or experience requirements may also apply.

Requirements specified for different posts include:

  • An intermediate or equivalent recognized qualification
  • Hindi typing proficiency of around 4,000 key depressions per hour for several posts
  • Computer knowledge or prescribed computer certification
  • English typing proficiency for specified posts
  • Relevant work experience for certain specialized positions
  • Department-specific technical or professional qualifications

Candidates should therefore check the eligibility criteria for their selected postcode rather than assuming that passing Class 12 automatically makes them eligible for every vacancy.

Age Limit

The age limit varies by post.

A large number of Junior Assistant and related positions carry an age range of 18 to 42 years, while some posts prescribe a minimum age of 21 years. Age will be calculated with reference to July 1, 2026.

Age relaxation will be available to eligible reserved-category candidates in accordance with applicable Uttarakhand government rules.

Applicants should verify the minimum age requirement for their specific post before submitting the application.

Application Fee

Category Fee
Unreserved/OBC ₹300
Uttarakhand SC/ST and the eligible reserved categories specified in the notice ₹150
Divyang Candidates ₹150
Orphan Candidates No Fee

Candidates should select the correct category while filling out the form and pay the applicable examination fee through the available online payment facility.

Selection Process

Selection will primarily be based on an offline competitive written examination conducted by UKSSSC.

The merit list will be prepared according to the marks obtained in the examination, subject to the applicable qualifying conditions and tie-breaking rules.

For posts that involve typing or stenography duties, candidates may also have to qualify in the prescribed typing or skill test.

Exam Pattern

The written examination is worth 100 marks and will last two hours.

Section Marks
General Hindi 20
General Knowledge and General Studies 40
General Knowledge of Uttarakhand 40
Total 100

The General Knowledge and General Studies component covers areas such as reasoning, history, geography, political science, economics, current affairs, and basic computer knowledge.
