The Staff Selection Commission has asked candidates who appeared for the skill test for Stenographer Grade C, D recruitment to submit option-cum-preferences for posts or departments. Such candidates can submit their preferences on the official website, ssc.gov.in, by July 1, 2025.

“Before the declaration of final result, Option-cum-Preference(s) for post(s)/ department(s) are required to be submitted by those candidates who have appeared in the Skill Test of the examination,” the commission said in the latest notification.

Applicants can make revisions in the options during the given window and the last submitted preferences will be treated as final, it said. Those who fail to exercise the SSC Steno Grade C, D option-cum-preference facility during this period will not be given another opportunity and will not be considered for the final merit list. Therefore, it is mandatory for those who took the skill test to exercise their option-cum-preferences for consideration of their candidature in the selection list.

Before exercising their preferences of posts, candidates are also requested to ensure that they fulfil the requisite physical and medical standards for the post. The posts will be allotted based on the preferences submitted by the candidates.
