NWR opens 2008 apprentice posts, apply from October 7
North Western Railway (NWR) has invited applications for 2008 Apprentice posts through its official website rrcjaipur.in. The registration process begins on October 7, 2026, and the last date to apply is November 6, 2026.
Candidates must have passed Class 10 with at least 50% aggregate marks and hold a National Trade Certificate in the notified trade from NCVT or SCVT. The age limit is 15 to 24 years as of November 6, 2026. Selection will be based on a merit list prepared from the average of matriculation and ITI marks.
Application fee is Rs 100, with exemptions for SC/ST, Persons with Benchmark Disabilities, and women candidates. The final merit list will be prepared division-wise, trade-wise, and community-wise.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The 2008 posts announced by NWR offer a direct entry route for young vocational trainees, with selection purely by merit from matriculation and ITI marks, no written exam. The October 7 start date gives applicants just over a month to prepare. The fee exemption for SC/ST, PwBD, and women removes a barrier for these groups. What remains unresolved is how many applicants will compete per trade and division, which will determine the actual cut-off marks. The final merit list, due after the November 6 deadline, will settle that.
