The recruitment drive continues with the third and fourth phases, both scheduled for notification on October 15, 2026. Phase III will cover 2,311 positions, including 673 Group-II roles like Deputy Tahsildars and MPDOs, as well as engineering and power utility positions. Phase IV encompasses 2,995 vacancies, predominantly dedicated to school education teacher recruitment through District Selection Committees (DSC) for Secondary Grade Teachers and School Assistants.
Major recruiting agencies-including the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC), the AP State Level Police Recruitment Board (APSLPRB), and local DSCs-have been authorized to conduct the examinations.
