Frequently asked questions
Can I apply for more than one RRB?
No, you can only apply to one RRB. Submitting multiple applications across different RRBs will lead to the rejection of your candidature, so choose your region carefully based on vacancy distribution.
Is there any interview round for this post?
No, the recruitment process consists only of two computer-based tests, followed by document verification and a medical fitness exam. There is no interview stage for Junior Engineer roles in the Indian Railways.
What is the age relaxation for OBC candidates?
Candidates belonging to the OBC (Non-Creamy Layer) category are eligible for an age relaxation of 3 years over the standard upper age limit of 33 years, provided they hold a valid certificate.
Will the application fee be refunded if I do not appear for the exam?

Both the 1st and 2nd stage CBT exams follow a negative marking scheme. For every incorrect answer, 1/3rd of the marks assigned to that question will be deducted from your total score.
