Last Updated: 17 August 2026

The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board (RSSB) has released Rajasthan RSSB JEN Recruitment 2026 under Advertisement No. 10/2026, opening 874 Junior Engineer posts across the Public Works Department (PWD), Water Resources Department (WRD), and Public Health Engineering Department (PHED). Both Degree and Diploma holders in Civil Engineering can apply, while Mechanical and Electrical candidates need a Diploma specifically — a distinction worth catching early, since it changes which application code applies to you. Online applications run from 16 August to 14 September 2026, with the written exam tentatively set for February 2027.

Degree vs Diploma — And a Number You Shouldn't Trust Blindly

Rajasthan RSSB JEN Recruitment 2026 – Overview

Vacancy Details — What's Confirmed

A more granular department-wise and discipline-wise split (exact seats per Civil Degree, Civil Diploma, and Mechanical/Electrical Diploma) is expected in the official notification's detailed annexure. Check the PDF on rssb.rajasthan.gov.in directly before finalizing which post code you apply under — a few sources online show specific numbers for this split that couldn't be independently confirmed here, so treat any exact figure you see elsewhere with caution until you've checked the source PDF yourself.

Eligibility Criteria

Educational Qualification

Civil Engineering: B.E./B.Tech Degree or a 3-Year Polytechnic Diploma in Civil Engineering — both routes are open, under separate application codes.
Mechanical / Electrical Engineering: 3-Year Polytechnic Diploma only, for PHED posts.
Working knowledge of Hindi written in Devanagari script is a standard requirement across RSSB recruitments.

Age Limit (as on 01.01.2027)

Minimum age is 18 years, maximum is 40 years. Relaxation of 5 years applies to male SC/ST/OBC/MBC/EWS candidates domiciled in Rajasthan, and 10 years for female candidates in reserved categories from Rajasthan.

Application Fee & One Time Registration (OTR)

Payment happens through the Rajasthan SSO portal. Candidates who haven't completed One Time Registration (OTR) yet need to finish that step first at sso.rajasthan.gov.in before the actual application — this is a separate, standing registration, not something you redo for every RSSB exam.

Selection Process & Exam Pattern

The written exam has 120 objective questions for 120 marks, generally structured as Part-A (Rajasthan General Knowledge) and Part-B (subject-specific technical questions from your discipline). One-third (1/3) of the marks allotted to a question is deducted for every wrong answer, and a minimum aggregate score is required to clear the exam — check the official notification for the exact qualifying percentage, since this figure varies slightly across RSSB recruitment cycles and shouldn't be assumed from a previous year's rule.

Salary & Pay Scale

Selected candidates are placed at Pay Matrix Level-10. Like most Rajasthan government technical posts, a probation period typically applies before you move to full regular pay — the exact stipend-versus-regular-pay figures during and after probation should be verified against the official notification rather than assumed from older cycles, since these amounts get revised periodically.

How to Apply Online

Visit sso.rajasthan.gov.in → log in with your SSO ID (or create one via OTR if you don't have it) → find the RSSB JEN Recruitment 2026 application link → select your discipline and department preference carefully → fill in educational and personal details → upload required documents → pay the applicable fee → review thoroughly and submit → save your confirmation page.
