Vacancy by post
The 311 posts split across eight specialised, low-vacancy-count categories, “isolated” because each is a standalone functional role rather than part of a larger recruitment family like Technician or ALP:
- Chief Law Assistant, Level 7, legal department roles
- Public Prosecutor, Level 7, the largest category by vacancy count
- Junior Translator (Hindi), Level 6, official language translation
- Senior Publicity Inspector, Level 6, public relations and publicity
- Staff and Welfare Inspector, Level 6, employee welfare
- Scientific Assistant (Training), Level 6, training department
- Lab Assistant Gr. III (Chemist & Metallurgist), Level 2, technical laboratory role
- Scientific Supervisor / Ergonomics and Training, Level 7, ergonomics and training
RRB-wise and zone-wise vacancy distribution for each category is in Annexure B of the notification. You compete only within the RRB zone you selected while applying.
Eligibility and qualification
Educational qualification is specific to each of the eight categories, Public Prosecutor requires a law degree with relevant litigation experience, Junior Translator (Hindi) requires a postgraduate qualification with Hindi/English translation credentials, Lab Assistant requires a Chemistry/Metallurgy background, and so on. Check Annexure A of the notification PDF for your specific post’s exact requirement.
Age limit (as on 01.01.2026) also varies by post, ranging from 18-30 years for some technical posts up to 18-40 years for Chief Law Assistant, with standard RRB age relaxation by category on top of the base range.
