wen s ur ssb
Ashutosh, can u tell which book should I follow to clear this exam.
No specific book as such, though you can go through any book available for your idea. GK consists of current affairs, History, Geography and you need to have general knowledge strong plus read as many newspapers for national/international issues for essay.
hi ashutosh, currently i am not doing any job in any company. but i in my previous years i worked various companies and had 6 yrs of retail experience total.
so wat supporting documents i can show pls suggest.
currently i am just supporting my cousin in his business since last one year.
You have to show the documents even if you are working in pvt/govt/ self-employed business. At PIB stage, they will go through all the documents, so make sure you are an official partner in the business and any document supporting it will be sufficient..
physical test will be there or only exam and medical test ?
i have completed my engineering but i am presently not employed,can i apply for this post?????????????????????
no . .main requirement is that you must be employed . It is more of a volunteer kind of job
What if someone has been in work for 2 years and has recently left the job ?
