Odisha Sub-Ordinate Staff Selection Commission (Website)

The Odisha Sub-Ordinate Staff Selection Commission (OSSSC) has officially announced the rescheduling of the Combined Recruitment Examination (CRE)-2025 written test. Originally slated for 20th June 2026, the examination has been postponed due to a scheduling conflict with the NEET (UG) - 2026. This change impacts candidates applying for various positions including Revenue Inspector (RI), ICDS Supervisor, Village Agriculture Worker (VAW), Junior Assistant, Assistant Revenue Inspector (ARI), Amin, and Special Field Surveyor (SFS). Candidates are advised to note the revised date of 28th June 2026 and prepare accordingly. The commission emphasizes that the previous admission letters are no longer valid, and a fresh download process is mandatory for all participants to ensure entry into the examination hall. This update is crucial for maintaining the integrity and smooth conduct of the recruitment process across the state.

The selection process for the OSSSC CRE-2025 involves a comprehensive written examination designed to test the aptitude and subject knowledge of the candidates. The test is conducted in a standardized format to ensure fair evaluation across all posts. Following the written test, successful candidates will be shortlisted based on their performance and the established cut-off marks for each category. Subsequent stages may include document verification and other procedures as specified by the commission to finalize the merit list. Candidates must ensure they follow all instructions provided in the revised admission letter to participate in the examination process successfully.

The written examination for the CRE-2025 is conducted to assess candidates on various subjects relevant to the roles of RI, Junior Assistant, and other posts. The pattern includes objective-type questions covering general awareness, reasoning, mathematics, and language proficiency. Specific details regarding the number of questions, marking scheme, and duration are outlined in the official syllabus provided by the OSSSC. Candidates should focus on the core subjects and practice previous years' papers to improve their speed and accuracy for the rescheduled date.
