What criteria are considered for shortlisting candidates for the interview round in the HP PGT Maths exam?

Greetings and regards from Bansal Academy! Thank you for your question regarding the criteria considered for shortlisting candidates for the interview round in the Himachal Pradesh Post Graduate Teacher (PGT) Maths exam.

the criteria for shortlisting candidates for the interview round in the HP PGT Maths exam typically include a combination of academic qualifications, performance in the written exam, and other factors. Please note that specific criteria may vary based on the official guidelines released by the Himachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (HPPSC) for the particular year of the PGT Maths recruitment.

Here are some common factors that are often considered:

1. Performance in the Written Exam:
   • The marks obtained by candidates in the written exam, which includes Paper 1 and Paper 2, are a crucial factor in the shortlisting process. Higher scores enhance the chances of being selected for the interview.
2. Educational Qualifications:
   • Academic qualifications, especially the candidate’s Master’s degree in Mathematics, play a significant role. Candidates with higher percentages in their educational qualifications are generally given preference.
3. Experience in Teaching:
   • Some recruitment processes consider teaching experience as a valuable criterion. Candidates with prior teaching experience, especially at the postgraduate level, may receive additional consideration.
4. Research Publications and Achievements:
   • For academic positions, research publications, presentations, or any notable achievements in the field of Mathematics may contribute to the shortlisting process.
5. Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) Qualification:
   • Depending on the requirements, candidates who have qualified the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) may receive preference in the shortlisting process.
6. Interview Performance:
   • While the interview round itself is a subsequent stage, the performance in the interview is a crucial factor in the final selection. Communication skills, subject knowledge, and overall suitability for the teaching position are assessed during the interview.

It’s important to refer to the official notification and guidelines provided by the HPPSC for the specific recruitment cycle to understand the detailed shortlisting criteria and selection process.
