SSSB Punjab Craft Instructor Selection Process
- Candidates who successfully apply will be called for an Objective Type (Multiple Choice Question) written examination.
- The merit list is prepared based on marks obtained in the written exam. Each correct answer carries 1 mark; each wrong answer attracts a negative marking of ¼ mark.
- In case of a tie in merit, preference is given first to the candidate with the older date of birth. If still tied, preference goes to the candidate with a higher percentage in the required educational qualification. If still tied, preference goes to the candidate with higher marks in Matriculation.
- Based on the merit list, candidates are called for counseling and document/certificate verification. The number of candidates called is decided by the Board based on category-wise vacancy count.
- Being shortlisted for the exam, appearing for it, or being called for counseling does not itself confer any right to selection - final recommendation depends on the candidate proving their eligibility in all respects.
- Candidates in the Sports category will have their merit determined as per Punjab Sports Department notification dated 09-03-2026 and subsequent instructions.
