What happens at the walk-in

A nominated committee conducts the interview. KRCL draws the merit list from interview performance, qualifications, and post-qualification experience. The committee’s decision is final and binding.
Candidates should come prepared to stay for a minimum of 2 days, if required, at their own cost. KRCL pays no train or bus fare, TA or DA. Any canvassing disqualifies a candidate at any stage.
