Salary and Pay Scale
The GPCB notification does not disclose a detailed pay scale, allowances, or in-hand salary figure for the Clerk post upfront — this is typically shared with shortlisted candidates or listed in the detailed advertisement.
⚠️ Don’t assume a figure and plan around it — download the official advertisement PDF and confirm the exact pay structure, increments, and allowances before you make any financial decisions based on this job.
Selection Process
Selection happens in two stages, and you need to clear both:
- Online Written Examination — as per the pattern above. Your raw score (after the negative marking deduction) is normalized across sessions if the exam runs in multiple shifts.
- Personal Interview — held only at Gandevi, for candidates shortlisted from the written exam.
There’s no third stage like document verification mentioned separately in the notification, but you should still carry your original documents to the interview.
