- Surveyor, Welder, Fitter (84 each): Three trades with equal seats — combined 56% of ITI vacancies. Strong competition expected in Fitter and Welder due to wider ITI pass pool.
- Machinist (82 posts): Similar to top three — slightly fewer seats but comparable competition level.
- Electrician/Wireman (252 posts, Advt 23): The largest single advertisement — covering two departments significantly expands the role and posting options.
- Automobile, Leather, Mechanic Tractor, Agriculture & Machinery: Very limited seats (1–4 per trade) — even single-digit differences in CBT marks determine selection. Every mark is critical in these trades.

Stage 1 — Online Application Screening
All applications submitted are screened for eligibility — correct trade advertisement, qualification, age, category, and complete document upload. Incomplete or ineligible applications are rejected without prior notice. Applying under the correct advertisement number for your trade is the most important step. A candidate applying under the wrong advt. number (e.g., applying for Fitter/Advt.21 when qualified for Electrician/Advt.23) will be rejected outright.
Stage 2 — Online Computer-Based Test (CBT)
The primary merit-determining stage. The Online CBT is a written competitive examination conducted in computer-based mode. Question paper will be trade-specific and test candidates on their technical subject knowledge for the trade they applied for. The exact exam pattern — number of questions, marks, duration, sectional split, negative marking, and minimum qualifying marks — are specified in the official detailed notification at btsc.bihar.gov.in. The CBT date, admit card, and exam centre details are communicated via the official BTSC website.
Stage 3 — Document Verification (DV)
Candidates shortlisted based on CBT merit are called for document verification at the BTSC office or designated centre. Original copies of all educational certificates (ITI/Diploma/Degree), trade certificates, caste certificate, domicile certificate, age proof, and photo ID must be produced. Any mismatch between the application and original documents leads to disqualification. Organize all original documents in advance — do not wait for the DV date announcement to start collecting them.
Stage 4 — Final Merit & Appointment
Based on CBT performance (and document verification clearance), a final merit list is prepared trade-wise and category-wise. Selected candidates receive appointment letters from the Department of Science, Technology & Technical Education, Bihar (or Public Health Engineering Department for Advt. 23/2026). Postings are made to government ITIs, polytechnic colleges, and engineering institutions across Bihar. This is a permanent regular government appointment.
- Trade knowledge is the core: The CBT will primarily test your technical knowledge in the trade you are applying for. Revise ITI/Diploma-level theory and practical concepts for your trade — this is where rank differences will be created.
- General sections (GK + Reasoning + English): Most Bihar state competitive exams include GK, basic reasoning, and general English. Even if the weightage is lower than trade knowledge, these sections should not be neglected — they can separate closely-ranked candidates.
- Bihar-specific GK: State government exams in Bihar often include questions about Bihar history, economy, politics, and culture. Allocate dedicated preparation time to Bihar GK.
- Previous BTSC papers: Download and solve previous year BTSC Instructor exam papers — trade-specific question patterns repeat frequently. Even papers from 2018–2023 give useful insight into difficulty level and topic distribution.
