Posts covered in this advertisement
Five posts are named:
- Senior Personal Assistant (SPA)
- Personal Assistant (PA)
- Junior Judicial Assistant (JJA)
- Process Server
- Peon/Orderly/Dak Peon
These posts are not the same. The qualification, pay level and skill requirements can differ from post to post. Do not assume that a rule for one post applies to another. Open the notice and find the row or section for your post.
If you want to apply for more than one post, check whether the notice allows it and whether each post needs a separate application or post code. That detail is in the notice, not here.
What you must check in the official notice
Do this with the PDF open and a pen in hand. Write each answer down.
- Number of vacancies for each post, and category-wise split if given.
- Application start and last date. Note the time of closing too, if mentioned.
- Application fee and any exemption.
- Educational qualification for your post.
- Age limit and the date on which age is counted.
- Exam pattern: tiers, marks, negative marking, syllabus.
- Skill test: whether typing or stenography applies to your post, the language, the speed and the time.
- Documents to upload, with size and format.
Many candidates miss item 7 because they read only the first page. The skill test detail often sits further down, or in a separate part of the notice. Scroll to the end.
Typing and skill test: what to look for
For posts like SPA, PA and JJA, candidates naturally ask about typing. We do not have the skill test rules for this advertisement, so we will not guess a speed or a time limit.
When you find the skill test section, note these points:
- Is the test in English, Hindi, or both?
- What is the required speed, and is it counted in words per minute or key depressions per hour?
- How many minutes do you get?
- How are mistakes counted, and is backspace allowed?
- Is the test qualifying only, or do marks count towards selection?
Different exams count mistakes in different ways. For an idea of how full and half mistakes work in another exam, see SSC CHSL typing test: full and half mistakes explained. Use it only to understand the idea. The DSSSB rule is whatever the DSSSB notice says.
How to prepare while you wait for details
You do not need the exact speed to start. Good typing habits help in any test.
Build accuracy first. Type slowly and clean for the first week. Speed comes after your fingers know where the keys are. A fast passage with many errors usually scores worse than a slower, clean one.
Practise on a full-size keyboard. If you only use a phone, your hands will feel strange in the exam hall. Even thirty minutes a day on a real keyboard helps.
Pick your language early. If the notice offers a choice, decide and practise only that. Switching late costs you time. Our post on choosing the typing language for a DSSSB post explains how to think about this.
Practise with full-length passages. Use a timer. Check your errors after each attempt and note which words or punctuation marks cause them.

Common mistakes before applying
- Applying from a forwarded message instead of the official notice.
- Not checking the age cut-off date.
- Uploading a photo or signature in the wrong size.
- Leaving the application to the last day, when the website runs slow.
- Not saving the application number and a copy of the submitted form.
None of these is hard to avoid. They only need a calm hour and the notice in front of you.

- Find the skill test section and note the language, speed and time before you choose what to practise.
- Start with accuracy drills for 20 to 30 minutes a day on a real keyboard.
- Keep your documents scanned and ready in the required size and format.
- Check the DSSSB website again before you submit the form, in case the notice is updated.
