One pay level, many posts

A candidate applies to one RRB or railway zone and gives an order of preference for the posts in it. The post is allotted on merit, preference, medical fitness and vacancies, and once a post is allotted the candidate gives up the right to be considered for any other post.

Selected candidates undergo training wherever it is prescribed, and the notification says only a stipend is paid, as applicable, during training. A railway servant is ordinarily employed throughout service on the railway of first appointment, and the notification says no transfer request is registered until the new appointee has completed at least 5 to 10 years of service.
