RVUNL Junior Assistant & Commercial Assistant-II: Complete Preparation Strategy

Getting a government job as a Junior Assistant (JA) or Commercial Assistant-II in Rajasthan's power companies is a dream for many students. First, you have to pass Phase 1 (the written exam). But the real challenge is Phase 2.

Phase 2 is the Typing and Efficiency Test. Many students fail here because they do not know the correct rules, lack speed, or make simple formatting mistakes in MS Word/Excel. In this guide, we use simple words to explain exactly how to prepare for both phases and how you can easily pass the final test.

Strategy 1: How to Clear the Written Exam

The Phase 1 Written Exam is a competitive computer-based test (CBT). It focuses heavily on speed and your basic knowledge of mathematics, reasoning, and the state of Rajasthan.

3-Step Written Roadmap:

1. Fix Rajasthan GK First: A huge portion of the General Awareness weightage directly highlights Rajasthan's geography and energy projects. Read standard state board textbooks.
2. Daily Reasoning Practice: Solve at least 30 reasoning questions daily under timed conditions to improve speed for the online screen.
3. Master MS Office Early: Understanding MS Word and Excel now will make your Phase II Efficiency Test completely effortless.

Strategy 2: Step-by-Step Guide for Phase-II Typewriting Test

Phase II carries 100 Marks and consists of four sub-tests (10 Minutes duration each):

How to Learn Typing (Beginner to Expert):

Stage 1: Muscle Memory (Days 1 to 7)

If you are a beginner, do not attempt full-paragraph mock tests right away. Focus purely on touch typing. Place your fingers on the Home Row and practice typing without looking down at the keyboard keys.

Stage 2: Mastering Special Characters (Alt Codes)

Devlys 010 requires typing specific numerical Alt Codes for half-letters and special characters. You must memorize these to maintain speed during the exam.

Stage 3: Handling Restricted Backspace (Days 16 to 30)

During official exams, excessive backspacing drains time. Practice typing in simulators that enforce restricted backspacing so you learn to get words right on the first attempt.

How to Clear the 50-Mark Efficiency Test:

The Efficiency Test evaluates your practical knowledge of MS Word and MS Excel. You will be given a printed sheet containing formatting instructions to perform on a given document within 10 minutes.

• MS Word Focus: Paragraph alignment, Font size/color changes, Header/Footer insertion, Table creation, Line spacing, Border shading, and Page setup.
• MS Excel Focus: Basic formulas (SUM, AVERAGE), Cell formatting, Text wrapping, Sorting data, Merging cells, and Gridlines.
