**How ​​will the selection be conducted?**
Candidates will be selected based on an interview, or—depending on the specific post as determined by the UPSC—based on an interview conducted after a recruitment examination. Should a large number of applications be received, the Commission may utilize academic qualifications, work experience, and other criteria for shortlisting purposes, or it may opt to conduct a written examination.

However, candidates from reserved categories applying for unreserved (General) posts will not be eligible to avail themselves of this age relaxation benefit.
