The Public Service Commission, West Bengal is hiring for Lower Division Assistant and Lower Division Clerk posts in the Secretariat, Directorates and district offices across West Bengal. The number of posts has not been announced yet. Candidates with a Madhyamik or equivalent pass, computer typing skills and Bengali ability are likely eligible. Online applications close on 26 October 2026 at 3:30 PM. Apply early in the window so that any portal problems can be fixed during the edit window.

Who Should Apply for WBPSC Clerkship 2024

This suits Madhyamik-passed candidates who can type on a computer and read, write and speak Bengali, unless their mother tongue is Nepali; candidates from other states may assume they qualify for reservation, but the notice gives reservation only to West Bengal candidates.

The exact qualification, age and other conditions are under Eligibility Criteria.

Watch Out Before You Apply

  • Keep your Madhyamik certificate ready, because it is the only accepted proof of age; upload a PDF of it under 100 kb if your claim needs it.
  • If you claim SC, ST, OBC, EWS, PwBD, sports or Ex-Servicemen status, upload the valid West Bengal certificate, since the form is rejected without it.
  • OBC candidates must renew their non-creamy layer certificate before the computer and typing test, as the notice requires.
  • Submit only one application; more than one application from the same candidate leads to cancellation.
  • Use the edit window from 28 October to 1 November 2026 to correct details, but you may edit only once.
