Andhra Pradesh Government Jobs 2026

Andhra Pradesh has a well-structured state government recruitment ecosystem anchored by the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) and the Andhra Pradesh Staff Selection Board (APSSB). APPSC conducts Group I exams for state-level civil services posts including Deputy Collector, DSP, Commercial Tax Officer, Regional Transport Officer, and Mandal Revenue Officer. Group II and Group III exams cover posts like Junior Lecturer, Municipal Commissioner Grade-III, Assistant Section Officer, and Senior Accountant. The AP State Public Service exam pattern is highly competitive with lakhs of graduates appearing annually across all groups.

AP DSC (District Selection Committee) is the primary body for teacher recruitment in Andhra Pradesh, selecting Secondary Grade Teachers, School Assistants, and Language Pandits for state government schools. APSSB handles subordinate service recruitment including Lower Division Clerks and Multi-Tasking Staff for central offices operating in AP. Key state PSUs — APSPDCL, APEPDCL, APGENCO — recruit engineers and technical staff through separate merit-based selection. Andhra Pradesh Police Department also conducts regular recruitment for Constables, Sub-Inspectors, and Police Communication Wing through SLPRB (State Level Police Recruitment Board).

AP government employees receive salary under the state's Revised Pay Scales, implemented periodically after periodic Pay Revision Commissions (PRC). State government jobs carry benefits including APGLI (Government Life Insurance), medical reimbursement under APIMA, and the Contributory Pension Scheme. Candidates must have AP domicile for state-level posts, and Telugu language proficiency is mandatory — tested through a Paper I in all APPSC exams. All state job applications are submitted online through the official APPSC portal at psc.ap.gov.in.
