WCDC Bihar Jobs 2026: State Project Manager (M&E, Communication & Documentation), Accountant and Assistant Vacancies
The Women and Child Development Corporation, Bihar (WCDC) has invited online applications for 7 contractual posts: State Project Manager (Monitoring & Evaluation), State Project Manager (Communication & Documentation), Accountant and Assistant. The two manager posts pay ₹60,362 per month, and the other two pay ₹30,180 per month. If you have a few years of office or project experience and want to work on government jobs in Bihar linked to women and child welfare, this is worth a careful look.
The online link opened on 1 October 2026 and closes on 6 November 2026 at 5:00 PM. Every post asks for both a qualification and experience, so freshers will not qualify. Selection is mainly on a 100-mark merit score, which rewards government experience. Read this guide from GovtJobsAlert.in fully before you fill the form, because a wrong category claim cannot be fixed later.

How Many Vacancies are in WCDC Bihar State Project Manager, Accountant and Assistant Recruitment 2026?
The reservation is different for each post, so check the row for your own post.
| Post | Category-wise Vacancies | Total |

| State Project Manager (Monitoring & Evaluation) | UR 1 | 1 |
| State Project Manager (Communication & Documentation) | UR 1 | 1 |

WCDC Bihar 2026 Eligibility: Who Can Apply for Each Post?
Educational Qualification
| Post | Essential Qualification |
|---|---|
| State Project Manager (M&E) | P.G. Diploma or Master’s degree in Rural Development, Women Studies, Rural Management or Social Work from a premier institute |

| Accountant | B.Com (Hons). Preference to CA (Inter) or ICWA (Inter) |
| Assistant | Graduate in any faculty with knowledge of typing in both Hindi and English on computer |
The Accountant post asks for B.Com (Hons), so check your marksheet before applying. If you are a plain commerce graduate looking for finance jobs, CA Inter or ICWA Inter only gives preference; it does not replace the degree. The Assistant post is open to any graduate, but Hindi and English computer typing is part of the requirement, not an extra.
Experience
| Post | Experience Required |
|---|---|
| State Project Manager (M&E) | Minimum 5 years, of which 2 years in a managerial role in Research or Documentation. Exposure to log frame Monitoring & Evaluation work preferred |
| State Project Manager (Communication & Documentation) | Minimum 5 years, of which 2 years in a managerial role in communication and documentation support in rural development |
| Accountant | Minimum 3 years of accounts work in Govt., Semi Govt. or an organisation of repute. Retired AG or Finance Department staff may also be considered. Must know Tally, MS Excel and MS Word |
| Assistant | Minimum 3 years in Govt., Semi Govt. or an organisation of repute, with knowledge of government procedures |
Two experience rules decide many applications. Only experience gained after you got the essential qualification counts. And only experience certificates dated before the advertisement was published are valid; a certificate issued after that date will not be accepted in any situation.

| Category | Maximum Age |
|---|---|

Age is counted on the date the advertisement was published. The PDF does not print that date, so keep a small margin if you are close to the limit. Existing WCDC employees who meet the eligibility get age relaxation under the GAD memo dated 17 September 2018. Category benefits apply only to Bihar domicile candidates; applicants from other states are treated as Unreserved.
What is the Salary for WCDC Bihar Posts 2026?
| Post | Monthly Emoluments |
|---|---|
| State Project Manager (M&E) | ₹60,362 |
| State Project Manager (Communication & Documentation) | ₹60,362 |
| Accountant | ₹30,180 |
| Assistant | ₹30,180 |
These are monthly emoluments for contractual posts, and the notification gives one figure per post. The job is for one year, starting with a three-month probation. If your work is found satisfactory, the competent authority may extend the service for the remaining period, and later renewals depend on your performance review. Please be clear that contract staff are not government servants, are not entitled to the facilities given to government servants, and cannot claim regularisation.
So think of this as solid project experience with a decent monthly income, not a permanent job. For a mid-career person, the manager posts can still be a strong step up, because state-level project roles look good on any later application.
What is the Selection Process for WCDC Bihar Recruitment 2026?
| Component | Maximum Marks |
|---|---|
| Percentage in the essential qualification | 50 |
| Additional higher qualification in women-related subjects | 10 |
| Experience in government or government-linked offices only | 25 |
| Interview | 15 |
| All four components | 100 marks |
Experience marks are 5 marks for each year beyond the required experience, up to 25. NGO experience gets no marks. From the merit list, at least 5 times the vacancies (category-wise) will be shortlisted for written exam, counselling or interview. The Corporation keeps the right to hold a written exam or interview as needed, so prepare for both. Before applying, work out your own score honestly: your percentage gives up to 50 marks, and each extra year of government experience adds 5. A candidate with private-sector experience only should know that it earns no experience marks here, even if it meets the minimum requirement. If two candidates have equal marks, the older candidate gets preference. The final appointment is made on the recommendation of the selection committee set up by the Corporation.
