NRA CET 2021: Find all important facts

The Indian government has approved a proposal shared by the Department of Personnel and Training, Government of India, to conduct a common examination, Common Eligibility Test for the existing recruiting agencies. A newly formed recruiting agency, National Recruitment Agency will be responsible to conduct the Common Eligibility Test.

Now, candidates, don\'t need to attend separate examinations for different government jobs. National Recruitment Agency CET exam will provide many benefits to the job seekers which they are not getting currently.

Initially, Common Eligibility Test will replace the Tier-1 exam of Staff Selection Commission (SSC), Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (IBPS), and Railway Recruitment Board (RRBs). Later on, more agencies can participate in the CET exam by signing a Memorandum of Understanding with the National Recruitment Agency.

Benefits of the Common Eligibility Test:

Now all candidates will attempt only one common eligibility test instead of attending the different examinations for different jobs. It will save time and money and will help candidates to focus on their study preparations.

National Recruitment Agency will arrange more than 1000 centers across the country so that candidates can get the nearest exam center. It will save candidates traveling costs and will help female candidates and candidates belong to the urban areas.

Common Eligibility Test will be conducted in 12 different languages so that candidates can answer the questions if they wish to do so.

States and Union Territories can also get the CET score to conduct their recruitment.

Common EligibilityTest will be conducted for the Group ‘B’ Non-Gazetted posts, certain Group ‘B’ Gazetted posts, and Group ‘C’ (non-technical) posts in the government.

After the CET exam, candidates will get a CET score which will be valid for 3 years. Candidates can improve their CET score by attending other CET exam. There will be no restrictions on the number of attempts and the best CET score will be taken into considerations while shortlisting for a further level of the recruitment process.

There will be a common registration portal for all candidates and an only one-time registration is required to apply for the CET exam.

The syllabus and exam pattern for the Common Eligibility Test would be the same. This will remove the extra burden of candidates who will have to prepare separately for different exams due to the difference in the Exam Pattern and Syllabus.
