  • 21 Assistant RTO posts available for candidates with Mechanical or Automobile Engineering degrees and a heavy vehicle driving license

The selection journey has three stages. Mains Examination is the core — a descriptive, written test spread across nine papers covering languages, general studies, essays, and an optional subject.

Finally, document verification wraps up the process before final appointment orders are issued.

  2. Prioritize Maharashtra-specific topics — MPSC heavily tests the state's history, geography, economy, and governance in GS papers
  3. Practice answer writing daily — the mains is descriptive, and structured, concise answers with relevant facts score better than lengthy essays
