The list of shortlisted candidates, and the date, place and venue of each test or interview, are published only on the official website.

How to Apply for Assam Legislative Assembly Recruitment 2026
Applications are accepted online only, on the Assam Legislative Assembly Secretariat website. The window is open from 10:00 hrs on 10 September 2026 until 24 September 2026. There is no offline or postal option.
- Open the recruitment section of the Assam Legislative Assembly Secretariat's official website.
- Read the full notification and confirm which single post you are eligible for.
- Register online and fill in your personal, educational and language-qualification details exactly as they appear on your certificates.
- Upload the documents asked for at registration, including proof of your degree, your language or stenography qualification and the computer application certificate.
- Submit before the closing date and save a copy of the completed application.
An application that is incomplete is summarily rejected, so check every uploaded file before you submit. If a scan is over the size limit, our PDF compressor and image compressor bring it down; to combine photographed certificates into one file use image to PDF, and image resizer for a photograph that is the wrong dimensions. A passport photo tool is there if you need a compliant photo.
What to Weigh Before Applying
The pull of this recruitment is the work and the setting: reporting and translation for the proceedings of the state legislature, at the Assembly Secretariat in Dispur. The field is also narrower than a general Assam government vacancy, because each post needs a specific language qualification.
The trade-off is the terms. These are contractual posts with a six-month initial term and no pay-band or regular-service benefits, and the Secretariat keeps the right to end the engagement without notice or reason. Weigh that against a permanent post you might be preparing for elsewhere. If parliamentary reporting or translation is the direction you want, the preference given to candidates with parliamentary or newspaper experience means this is a route worth taking — put any such experience clearly in your application.
