The final list is out at 10:00 AM the next day, and the interview, written test or skill test starts from 12:00 noon. If the work is not finished on a day, it moves to the next working day, and the notice goes on the Sukma district website.
What Is the Selection Process for NHM Sukma Recruitment 2026?
The notice sets out these steps and marks. It does not say which of the written, skill or interview test applies to which post, so check on the day.
| Stage | Detail |
|---|---|
| Registration and scrutiny | Filled form with documents, then the eligible and ineligible list |
| Claims and objections | Only for clerical or typing corrections, not new documents |
| Written, skill or interview test | 20 marks; at least 7 marks (33%) are needed to stay in the race |
| Document verification | Original documents checked before the final list |
| Merit and waiting list | Category-wise waiting list, valid 1 year or until the next recruitment |
Marks are out of 100. For 2nd ANM, 60% of your essential qualification marks, up to 20 for experience and 20 for the test. For every other post, 65% of qualification marks, up to 15 for experience and 20 for the test. Grades and grade points are converted to marks using the tables in the notice.
| Experience Type | Marks |
|---|---|
| Related work (other posts) | 2 per year, maximum 10 |
| NHM working staff | 3 per year, maximum 15 |
| 2nd ANM: trained Mitanin who passed ANM by 31 December 2017 | 4 per year, maximum 20 |
| 2nd ANM: other candidates | 2 per year, maximum 10 |
Only completed years count, up to 5 years. Experience gets marks only if it is related to the post you apply for. If candidates are tied, the older one ranks higher. The number called for the test depends on the advertised total: ten times the posts when the total is up to ten, five times when it is eleven to fifty, and three times above fifty.
