# Bihar SSC sets stenographer exam for December 1, 531 posts 2026-11-10T11:41:31+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Bihar Staff Selection Commission will hold the stenographer written examination on 1 December 2026 in online CBT mode across two shifts. The recruitment drive, under Advertisement No. 07/25, now targets 531 posts after the commission added 99 vacancies following additional requirements from government departments. BSSC increased the vacancy count from the earlier 432 to 531. The selection process includes the written test, a stenography and typing skill test, document verification and a medical examination. The commission has not yet announced shift timings. Candidates can download the exam date notice from bssc.bihar.gov.in. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The published exam date leaves candidates roughly three weeks to prepare, a short window given the four-stage selection process. The commission has not announced shift timings or released the admit card, two details that typically cause last-minute confusion. Normalisation of scores across shifts remains a stated but unelaborated process. The vacancy revision, from 432 to 531, suggests the government departments are still assessing their staffing needs, but no further rounds or future posts have been announced. Candidates must now watch the official BSSC website for the admit card and shift schedule. ## Coverage - kollegeapply.com Straight notification-style reporting with no slant This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
