DSSSB Multi-Tasking Staff jobs: Delhi opens 1,075 school support posts

The Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB) will accept online applications for Multi-Tasking Staff (MTS) posts in the Delhi government from 12 noon on Thursday, 12 November 2026, until 11.59 pm on Friday, 11 December 2026. The posts are part of the board's combined Advertisement No. 06/2026, released on Friday, 6 November 2026, which covers Multi-Tasking Staff, Multi-Tasking Staff (Aaya, female) and Multi-Tasking Staff (General Duty) under post code 810/26, along with Junior Engineer (Electrical) posts under post code 809/26. Reports put the MTS vacancies at 1,075.

For young people in Delhi who have finished school and want a government job, MTS posts are among the most accessible openings. The pay band on offer, Pay Level-1 in the government pay matrix, comes with the security of a permanent Group C post. Reports describe the qualification as Class 10 pass, which, if confirmed in the full notice, puts the posts within reach of a very wide pool of applicants.

The scale of this round stands out. Most of the posts are in the Directorate of Education, the department that runs the Delhi government's schools: 757 General Duty posts and 239 Aaya posts, according to reports. The Aaya posts are open to women only, as their title states.

Applicants should note the age rule closely. The upper limit of 27 years is counted as on 1 June 2026, not on the closing date, so someone who turned 28 before 1 June 2026 would be over the limit even if the window is still open. Reserved categories and other groups get age relaxations under the rules set out in the advertisement.

The window is long, about a month, but the board's applications are filled online and portals often slow down near closing dates. Applying early, and checking the post code and category, avoids errors that can be hard to fix later.

Peepals calculation: The two Directorate of Education categories account for 996 of the 1,075 reported MTS posts (757 + 239), or about 92.7% (996 ÷ 1,075 ≈ 0.927), leaving 79 posts across other departments. The General Duty posts alone make up about 70.4% of the total (757 ÷ 1,075). The top of the pay band, Rs 56,900, is about 3.16 times the starting figure of Rs 18,000. The online window is open for 30 days, counting both 12 November and 11 December. Our calculation from the reported figures.

Short-term: Candidates can apply on the board's online portal from 12 November. They should keep their documents, photograph and signature ready and check the eligibility rules in the advertisement first.

Long-term: Once selected, the new staff will fill support roles mainly in Delhi government schools, where the bulk of the posts are.

Who is affected: Young job seekers in Delhi and elsewhere who meet the age and qualification rules, women applying for Aaya posts, and Delhi government schools and departments that need support staff.

What to watch next: The online application window opens at 12 noon on Thursday, 12 November 2026, and closes at 11.59 pm on Friday, 11 December 2026.
