Recruitment Process Overview

Unfilled Vacancies and Suitability Issues
UPSC noted that several reserved and unreserved posts remain unfilled due to a lack of suitable candidates. This issue affects both Assistant Director and Marketing Officer positions.
Assistant Director Posts
The Commission found no suitable candidates for seven Assistant Director posts specifically reserved for the Economically Weaker Society (EWS). Additionally, two Assistant Director posts remain vacant due to ongoing legal disputes. These include one EWS post and one Other Backward Classes (OBC) post. The final result for these positions depends on the outcome of court cases OA No. 3486/2025 and 3500/2025, filed in Hon’ble CAT PB, New Delhi.
Marketing Officer Posts
Marketing Officer posts also found no suitable candidates across various categories. The breakdown of these unfilled posts is as follows:
| Category | Unfilled Posts |
|---|---|
| Scheduled Caste (SC) | 6 |
| Scheduled Tribe (ST) | 24 |
| Other Backward Classes (OBC) | 85 |
| Economically Weaker Society (EWS) | 30 |
| Unreserved | 116 |
UPSC states that it duly considered all other applications. However, it was not possible to recommend these candidates for interview or the advertised posts.
