How do I apply for a government teacher job in India?

Register on the recruitment portal (kvsangathan.nic.in, navodaya.gov.in, or your state SSC), fill the online form, upload documents, pay the fee, then take the CBT and interview.

Government teacher recruitment in India is fully online for the application stage. Typical steps:

  1. Track notifications on Employment News, KVS/NVS/DSSSB portals, and state education-department sites. Aggregators (SchoolJobsIndia, Sarkari Result) republish links.
  2. Register on the official portal with a valid mobile & email. Note your registration number.
  3. Fill the form — personal, educational, CTET/TET details. Double-check subject and category (SC/ST/OBC/EWS/PwD).
  4. Upload photo, signature, marksheets and category certificate (each ≤ 100 KB, JPG).
  5. Pay fee online (₹0 for SC/ST/PwD/Women in most drives; ₹1,000–₹1,500 for general).
  6. Download admit card ~10 days before exam. Appear for CBT at the allotted centre.
  7. Shortlisted candidates attend document verification + interview / demo class.

Keep scanned copies of all certificates ready in advance — most portals reject files above 200 KB.
