- RFID-Based Physical Standard Test (PST) & Physical Efficiency Test (PET): Height/chest/weight measurement and the qualifying run, as detailed above.
- Documentation Verification (DV): Conducted alongside PST/PET reporting; candidates must produce the original of the payment receipt/challan and the printed application form/notification copy.
- Computer Based Test (CBT): 100-mark objective-type question paper. Minimum pass marks: 35% for General/EWS candidates; 33% for SC/ST/OBC candidates. Candidates successful in the RFID PET/PST, Documentation Verification and CBT are shortlisted to the Trade Skill Test.
- Trade Skill Test: Based on a Computer Based Trade Test and a Specific Practical Skill Test; no marks are awarded (purely qualifying – pass/fail). Shortlisting for the Skill Test is based on merit in the CBT, at roughly 4 times the number of vacancies (1:4 ratio) per trade/category.
- Detailed Medical Examination (DME) & Review Medical Examination (RME): Conducted as per the Uniform Guidelines for Recruitment Medical Examination for GOs and NGOs in CAPFs and AR (MHA UO No. A.VI-1/2014-Rectt(SSB) dated 20 May 2015, and MHA OM No. E.32012/ADG(Med)/DME&RME-DA-1/2020(Part File)/1166 dated 31 May 2021, as amended).

Instructions to join the Training Centre are issued based on the Merit List. Qualifying all tests does not by itself guarantee final selection – final selection depends on a candidate’s position in the Merit List against category/trade vacancy availability.
