There are 22,000 vacancies in the railways, and the notification for RRB Level-1 recruitment will be released soon..
A major relief has come for young people preparing for railway jobs at the start of the new year. The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) is going to start a new recruitment process for Level-1 posts. According to information, the official advertisement may be released in the third week of January. Under this recruitment, approximately 22,000 eligible candidates will be selected. These recruitments will take place in various railway zones across the country. The railways had previously announced large-scale recruitments, and now another good opportunity is coming up for unemployed youth.
Preparation for Recruitment to 22,000 Level-1 Posts
The Railway Recruitment Board will soon release a new recruitment notification for Level-1 posts. This recruitment may include positions such as Track Maintainer, Helper, and other Group-D related posts. It is estimated that a total of approximately 22,000 vacancies will be filled. The Railway Board has started preparations and has sought details of vacancies from all zones. All Railway Recruitment Boards, including Ajmer, are involved in this process.
Bhopal RRB to be the Nodal Agency
This time, the Railway Recruitment Board Bhopal has been made the nodal agency for the Level-1 recruitment. This means that the entire recruitment process will be monitored and coordinated by the Bhopal board. Earlier, recruitment advertisements were issued for several cadres, including NTPC, in 2025. At that time, an advertisement was also issued for 32,438 Level-1 posts, the examination process for which is still underway. Now, the railways are preparing to bring another new recruitment.
Information on Previous Recruitment and Age Limit
The last recruitment for Level-1 posts was conducted in 2024, and the advertisement was released in January 2025. Online applications for that recruitment were accepted from January 23 to February 22, 2025. At that time, the age limit was set at 18 to 36 years. It is believed that there will be no major change in the age limit this time either. However, final confirmation will be made only after the official notification is released.
A golden opportunity for young people
This proposed railway recruitment drive could prove to be an excellent employment opportunity for millions of young people. Candidates who are already preparing for railway exams should focus on the syllabus and exam pattern from now on. The application process is likely to begin as soon as the advertisement is released in the third week of January, so candidates are advised to keep an eye on the official website of the Railway Recruitment Board.
