Eligibility Snapshot

Why This Matters

CET clears candidates for future Group D recruitment across Haryana government departments, boards, and corporations — roles like peons, gardeners, and support staff — with over 8,000 posts expected to be notified separately. The exam itself is a 100-question, 100-mark OMR test lasting 1 hour 45 minutes, with no negative marking for wrong answers (but a 1-mark deduction if you skip a question without marking the "not attempted" bubble).
