UP Police Workshop Staff Exam Pattern, Eligibility

All objective. A candidate must get at least 50 per cent in each subject to stay in selection.

• Education: an Intermediate (Class 12) pass from a recognised board, or an equivalent exam, together with an ITI certificate from a government recognised institute in one of these trades: electronics, telecommunication, electrical, computer science, information technology, radio and television, electric supply and manufacturing, refrigeration, mechanic instrument, mechanic electronics, or computer operator and programming assistant.
• Age: 20 to 28 on 1 July of the recruitment year. Reserved categories get the relaxation allowed by the government.
• Extra credit: in a tie, the Board favours a DOEACC/NIELIT O-level certificate, two years in the Territorial Army or an NCC B certificate.

These are the 2015 rules, so check the advertisement.

1. Online application.
