PrepZen analysis

Because there is no interview round for Office Assistant (Multipurpose), the Mains exam score serves as the sole competitive metric for provisional allocation and reserve list rankings.

Candidates placed under the reserve list must ensure their local language proficiency is up to standard, as failing the Local Language Proficiency Test can lead to disqualification despite a qualifying score.
