💡 Expert Tip

Two things candidates consistently miss here: (1) For Driver post, the eligibility test carries 50 marks and only top 25x vacancies (25 × 7 = 175 candidates) are shortlisted for interview — so the written test matters significantly even though final selection is interview-based. (2) Fee must be paid in the name of 'Registrar, City Civil Court, Bengaluru' through SBI Collect only — any payment in another name gets the application rejected. Also note: appointments are subject to final orders of the High Court of Karnataka in Writ Petitions No. 200448/2025, 17968/2025 and 3145/2023 — the recruitment may face delays if court orders change. Keep checking the official website for updates.
