About SSC Selection Post

Staff Selection Commission — Selection Post (Phase Examination)

SSC Selection Post (Phase exam) is conducted by the Staff Selection Commission to fill various Group-B and Group-C posts in central government departments and ministries. Unlike CGL or CHSL which target specific post groups, Selection Post advertises a wide variety of posts across three educational levels — Matriculation (10th pass), Higher Secondary (12th pass) and Graduate. The CBT has 100 questions in 60 minutes with −0.5 negative marking. Thousands of vacancies are released each phase, making it one of the most accessible SSC exams.
