How does it decide whether I am eligible?
It reads the age limit and the educational qualification from each open notice, applies your category’s relaxation from that notice’s own relaxation table, and compares both against what you entered. The age check is done in whole calendar days against the notice’s cut-off date, the same basis an official check uses.
Why does it say “Check this one” on some posts?
Because that notice states its age limit or qualification in wording the tool will not claim to have read correctly — or states none at all. The line under each row says which of those it is, so you know whether to go and read the notice or whether there was simply nothing to check. Rather than guess in either direction it shows you the post: guessing yes could cost you an application fee, and guessing no would hide a job you can have.
Does it apply age relaxation for SC, ST, OBC and PwBD?
Yes, from the relaxation table on each individual notice rather than from a general rule, because the years genuinely differ between notices. Where a notice states a combined relaxation — PwBD and SC/ST together, for instance — that larger figure is only applied if it matches the category you selected. Where the wording carries a condition the tool cannot read plainly, it applies no relaxation and says the notice needs checking.
Which posts does it check?
Every published post that is still open and states an age limit or a qualification. Results, admit cards and answer keys are not included — there is nothing to apply for on those — and neither are notices whose last date has passed.
Can I rely on this instead of reading the notice?
No, and it is not meant to replace it. It is a filter that saves you opening every notice on the site. Some advertisements set different age limits for different posts within the same notice, and this shows the widest window in that case — so the post appears, and the notice tells you which role the limit belongs to. Always confirm against the official notice before paying a fee.
Does it check the minimum age as well as the maximum?
Yes. Where a notice states a window — "18 to 40 years", or "minimum 18 years and maximum 43 years" — both ends are checked, and a reader below the floor is told they are too young rather than told they qualify. Many notices state only an upper limit, and in that case only the upper limit is applied.
What if I have not chosen a qualification yet?
The age check still runs on its own, and every post whose qualification has not been compared says so plainly rather than claiming its requirement could not be read. Fill in both your date of birth and your qualification to get a verdict on both halves of each notice.
Is my date of birth stored or sent anywhere?
No. The open posts are sent to your browser and the matching runs there, so your date of birth, qualification and category never leave your device and nothing is stored. Closing the page is enough.
