  1. Raj:No,It’s purely merit list and top 30,there is no question on that.For example see notification http://website.apspsc.gov.in/Documents/NOTIFICATIONS/149.pdf–>How the break up of positions given in notification itself.

    Take assistant forest conservator exam in that all are selected from Environmental and Mathematics ,bcoz as no one from ECE or EEE to gain 360 marks .

    Like wise here is also same,who gets top on merit basis they will get irrespective of branch,otherwise it will create problem unncessarily for appsc and students.
    Some will say why their is no reservation in my branch,as they are only 5 how appsc is going to split–>It is pure merit based i.e., top 30. who gets and their exsists vacancy in their respective branches then only filled,

    • Karthik,
      I am not sure why you are getting confused. In the notification it self they clearly mentioned the number of vacancies in each branch..how can u expect more than the ones in the notification. Once the results are declared and during certficate verification they will provide one more break up of vacancies branch ,local/non- local/community/Gender wise.

    • Karthik, For Asst consv of forests the qualification is
      degree in any of the desciplines mentioned in notification. But for managers HMWSSb the qualification is the Engineering degree in the respective Engr branches..Let say if you are from ECE..do you think that you will fit in the job with Manager(Civil Engineering) as Qualification?In the notification they clearly mentioned the qualification for each post code. Even though it is one vaacancy or 1000 vacancies they will provide the details break up during the certficate verification.

      what rajesh told is exactly right.
      when taken into consideration os assis conservative of forests the qualification is any degree so there is no concept of particulary this branch will get this limited no of posts so who ever got top marks will be sortlisted so environmental and maths students got selected.

      but when taken into consideration of hmwssb the posts are related to particulr engineering branch.

      so in the notification how many posts are allocated to a aparticular engg branch that much guys who got to marks will be called for certificate verification.

      clear.

  2. Hi,
    Ram:It’s not like that,60% jobs are zone 6
    Eg:5 seats in electrical,so only 3 are specific to Zone-6,remaining 2 has competition among all zones including zone 6.
    Jagan:As notification seats gave for all branches combined.For general 23 ,14-women
    So who got top 24irrespeive of branch will get the job..As total 84 jobs(84-84*60/100),30 will be non-local including zonal.
    So if u want job u should be in top 30..and their exists jobs in your specific branch.
    So which branch empty places are left,they are filled by reservation and so on.
    Jagan as you are scoring 330,you will get.

    • Its not that top 30 will get selected. It depends on the branch also. Even though the the break up is the consolidated(as per category/reservation) the lsit will be prepared branch wise. Apart from civil engineering the vacancies are as (Mech 7,Elec 8,ECE 5 and CSC/IT 5).
      So if you are from ECE then you should be top 5 in u r barnch..subjected to local/non local/reservation vacancies.
