Can I apply for a government job? I am just 18 and have just completed 12th PSS. I am from a commerce background, so can I apply for a government job?

Hi Aspirant,

Yes, you can apply for government jobs with the age of 18 after completing 12th commerce.

Yes, even after completing 12th, the doors of eligibility for many government jobs open up. Although these positions may not offer very high salaries, they do provide job security, and once you secure a job, you can pursue higher education later to prepare for higher positions.

After 12th, major recruitments are conducted mainly through Railways and SSC. In addition, 12th-pass students are eligible to apply for positions such as office assistant, police constable, clerk, and Group D posts.
