Why Region-Wise Interviews?

In a strategic move to expedite the recruitment process, the SLST Commission has decided to conduct interviews on a regional basis. This decision reflects the commission’s commitment to completing the selection process efficiently and ensuring that successful candidates can be appointed without unnecessary delays.

The regional approach offers several advantages:

  • Faster processing: By dividing candidates geographically, the commission can conduct multiple interview sessions simultaneously.
  • Convenience for candidates: Aspirants will likely be called to centres closer to their registered regions.
  • Better organisation: Smaller, region-specific batches allow for more streamlined management.
