About this exam
The RRB Junior Engineer examination recruits diploma and degree-holding engineering graduates for technical posts across Indian Railways — Junior Engineer in Civil, Electrical, Mechanical and Signal & Telecommunication (S&T) streams, alongside Depot Material Superintendent (DMS) and Chemical & Metallurgical Assistant (CMA) posts, which carry distinct educational requirements (B.Sc with Physics & Chemistry, or relevant science degrees). Selection is a two-stage process: CBT 1 (general/non-technical, screening-only) followed by CBT 2 (technical, stream-specific, counts toward final merit), then Document Verification and a Detailed Medical Examination. The technical syllabus in CBT 2 differs by engineering stream, testing core subject knowledge relevant to the specific JE discipline.
