The Indian Air Force has notified one Hindi Typist vacancy reserved for OBC candidates under Headquarters Southern Air Command in Thiruvananthapuram. Applicants need a Class 12 pass and a typing speed of 35 words per minute in English or 30 in Hindi on computer. The post is at Pay Level 2 under the 7th CPC. Applications must be sent offline to the unit at Akkulam, Trivandrum, 695011 within 30 days from the advertisement's publication in the Employment News edition of 24 to 30 October 2026. Selection will involve a written examination followed by a qualifying typing skill test for shortlisted candidates. The IAF reserves the right to vary the number of vacancies before selection.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Because the advertisement names no firm deadline date, each applicant must calculate the closing day from the 24 October publication. The single OBC-reserved post means only candidates who can produce a valid OBC Non-Creamy Layer certificate are eligible. With a written examination and a separate skill test yet to be scheduled, the total selection timeline remains open-ended.
