Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: What is an Appointment Chart?
A: An Appointment Chart is an official document released by the Kerala Public Service Commission (KPSC) that details the allocation of candidates from an approved ranked list to various government departments against reported vacancies. It specifies the names of candidates, their rank, the department they are advised to, and the rotation turn satisfied.
Q2: How do I know if I have been advised for a post?
A: If your name appears in the Appointment Chart against a specific post and department, you have been advised. KPSC typically sends individual appointment letters to the candidates’ registered addresses. It is advisable to regularly check the official KPSC website and your postal mail.
Q3: What does ‘NJD’ mean in the context of KPSC?
A: NJD stands for ‘Not Joined Duty’. These are vacancies that arise when a candidate who was previously advised for appointment does not join the post. Such vacancies are then re-notified and filled from the active ranked list.
Q4: What are ‘Fresh’ vacancies?
A: Fresh vacancies refer to newly reported vacancies that have not been filled before, as opposed to NJD vacancies which are re-reported due to non-joining of a previously advised candidate.
Q5: What is a ‘Ranked List’ and how long is it valid?
A: A Ranked List is a list of candidates arranged in order of merit, prepared after a selection process (exam, interview, etc.). Candidates are advised for appointment from this list. The validity period of a KPSC ranked list is generally one year from the date of finalization, but it can be extended up to a maximum of three years or until a new ranked list is published, whichever is earlier.
Q6: What should I do after seeing my name in the Appointment Chart?
A: You should await your official appointment letter. In the meantime, ensure all your original documents and their attested photocopies are ready. Be prepared for a medical examination and any final document verification process as per the instructions in your appointment letter.
Q7: Can candidates from other districts apply for Thrissur LDC vacancies?
A: For district-wise recruitments like LDC, candidates usually apply for a specific district. The ranked lists are also typically district-specific. This appointment chart pertains to the Thrissur district ranked list.
