It is conducted for recruitment of Grade III Assistants in General, Depot, Technical and Account Cadres of Food Corporation of India.

Graduates in respective disciplines are eligible to apply for it. It consists of three papers. The first paper consists of questions from general intelligence, quantitative aptitude, general awareness and English language.
