The Intelligence Bureau (IB) recruits for the post of Security Assistant (Motor Transport) through a competitive selection process. This role is critical for the operational mobility of the bureau. The selection involves a two-tier process: a written examination (Tier-I) to test general aptitude and domain knowledge, followed by a practical skill test (Tier-II) that assesses driving proficiency and basic vehicle maintenance skills. This exam is ideal for candidates who have a valid driving license and a knack for motor mechanics, offering a secure and respectable government job.
The recruitment process for the IB Security Assistant (Motor Transport) is designed to select candidates with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Tier-I is an online exam of 100 marks that covers General Awareness, Quantitative Aptitude, Reasoning, English, and domain-specific knowledge about traffic rules and vehicle maintenance. There is a negative marking of 0.25 for wrong answers. Candidates who pass Tier-I are shortlisted for Tier-II, which is a practical test. This stage evaluates the candidate's driving skills with a Light Motor Vehicle (LMV) and their ability to identify and rectify minor mechanical faults in the vehicle. The final merit list is prepared based on the combined performance in both tiers, making it a comprehensive assessment of the candidate's suitability for the role.
