Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission (JSSC) Inter Level Combined Competitive Examination (JILCCE) 2026 - 326 Posts

JSSC has released Advertisement No. 03/2026 to conduct JILCCE 2026 for filling 326 vacancies across six different Intermediate-level posts in departments such as Health, Planning & Development, Urban Development, and Agriculture. All six posts share the same basic qualification of 12th pass, which makes this one of the most accessible state government recruitment drives for candidates who have just finished school. Freshers as well as candidates with relevant certificates for technical posts like Veterinary Assistant or Fishery Technical Assistant are encouraged to apply. Since these are permanent state government positions filled through a competitive exam, this recruitment offers long-term job security along with the usual benefits of government service in Jharkhand.

Vacancy Breakdown by Discipline

• Health Supervisor (Directorate of Health Services): 137 posts
• Multipurpose Health Worker (Health, Medical Education & Family Welfare Department): 62 posts
• Fishery Technical Assistant (Agriculture, Animal Husbandry & Cooperative Department, Fisheries Division): 41 posts
• Insect Collector (Directorate of Health Services): 32 posts
• Veterinary Assistant/Medical Assistant (Urban Development & Housing Department): 27 posts
• Junior Regional Investigator (Planning & Development Department, Economics & Statistics Directorate): 27 posts

Category-wise, the 326 posts break down as: UR: 148, ST: 84, SC: 36, OBC-1: 19, OBC-2: 9, and EWS: 30. With Health Supervisor alone accounting for over 40% of all posts, candidates from a health or paramedical background have a particularly strong shot at this recruitment, though the basic qualification stays the same across all six posts. This kind of state-wide, multi-department drive does not come around often, so if you meet the basic 12th pass criteria, it is worth applying even if you are unsure which specific post suits you best.

Who Can Apply?

• Qualification: You must have passed Intermediate / 12th (10+2) / I.Sc. or an equivalent exam from a recognised Board or University.
• Post-specific qualifications and certificates (for technical posts like Veterinary Assistant and Fishery Technical Assistant) are detailed in the official notification.
• Make sure you check the post-wise eligibility criteria carefully before applying, since some posts may prefer candidates with a relevant subject background or field experience even though the base qualification is the same.

• Maximum age (OBC-1/OBC-2 - Male): 37 years

• Maximum age (SC/ST - Male/Female): 40 years
• Age relaxation is applicable as per Jharkhand government rules, and age limits may vary slightly by post — check the official notification for exact details.
• Reserved category candidates (SC/ST/OBC/EWS) get relaxed upper age limits compared to unreserved candidates, so check which bracket applies to you before ruling yourself out.
