SSC JE Exam 2026 Vacancy List: Tentative Posts Fall to 1,699

The Staff Selection Commission has released a tentative vacancy list for the Junior Engineer examination, according to the reported notice. The list shows 1,699 posts instead of the 1,748 vacancies mentioned earlier in the detailed notification.

Because the list is tentative, candidates should treat the post count as provisional. Applicants who submitted the SSC JE Exam 2026 form should check the category-wise details in the notice.

Computer-based Paper I is scheduled for October-November 2026. Computer-based Paper II is scheduled for December 2026.

The selection process has two papers. Both papers will contain objective-type, multiple-choice questions, and the questions will be available in Hindi and English.

Candidates can open the official website and find the SSC JE Exam 2026 tentative vacancy list notice on the home page. A PDF will open with the vacancy details.

After checking the list, candidates should download the notice and retain a hard copy for future use. They should also verify the post and category details relevant to their application.

Paper I carries a negative marking of 0.25 marks for every wrong answer. Paper II carries a deduction of one mark for each incorrect answer.

Candidates should read the instructions in the examination notice before attempting questions, especially because the negative marking differs between the two papers.
