The role can involve technical responsibilities associated with electricity distribution and maintenance within the company’s operational area.
Jodhpur Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited
JdVVN has 123 Electrical JEN-I vacancies.
Candidates selected for this company can be assigned engineering and field responsibilities related to power distribution infrastructure.
RVUNL JE Eligibility 2026
Eligibility for the Junior Engineer-I posts is discipline-specific. Candidates must possess the prescribed engineering qualification and satisfy the applicable age conditions.
The current eligibility information includes specific requirements for Electrical, Mechanical and Civil Engineering posts.
Candidates should carefully check the qualification corresponding to the post and company they are applying for.
Educational Qualification
Electrical Engineering
For JEN-I Electrical, candidates are required to have a recognized full-time four-year Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or an accepted AMIE/equivalent qualification in specified electrical-related disciplines.
Accepted areas include:
- Electrical Engineering
- Electrical & Electronics Engineering
- Electrical Instrumentation & Control
- Power Systems & High Voltage
- Power Electronics
- Power Engineering
The qualification must meet the recognition requirements specified in the recruitment conditions.
Mechanical Engineering
For JEN-I Mechanical, the prescribed qualification includes a full-time four-year Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or accepted AMIE/equivalent qualification in relevant disciplines.
The specified areas include:
- Mechanical Engineering
- Production Engineering
- Industrial Engineering
- Production & Industrial Engineering
- Thermal Engineering
- Mechanical & Automation Engineering
- Power Engineering
Candidates should verify the exact accepted qualification before applying.
Civil Engineering
For JEN-I Civil, candidates need the prescribed full-time four-year Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or accepted AMIE/equivalent qualification in relevant Civil disciplines.
The listed areas include:
- Civil Engineering
- Structural Engineering
- Civil Construction Engineering
- Other accepted equivalent qualifications
The qualification must be from a recognized institution as specified by the recruitment authority.
Is Diploma Qualification Accepted?
Candidates should pay attention to the qualification requirement because different online summaries have described the recruitment differently. The detailed eligibility information currently available for the JEN-I posts specifies four-year Bachelor’s degree/AMIE-level engineering qualifications for Electrical, Mechanical and Civil positions.
Therefore, candidates should not assume that a three-year engineering diploma alone is sufficient for the JEN-I posts. Applicants with only a Diploma should verify the final detailed advertisement applicable to their specific post before applying.
This is particularly important because the initial short advertisement stated that detailed eligibility conditions would be provided separately.
Age Limit
The reported age requirement varies according to the participating power company and post.
The currently available recruitment details indicate:
| Post/Company | Minimum Age | Maximum Age |
|---|---|---|
| Electrical – RVUN/JVVN/AVVN/JdVVN | 21 years | 40 years |
| Electrical – RVPN | 21 years | 43 years |
| Mechanical – RVUN | 21 years | 40 years |
| Civil – RVPN | 21 years | 43 years |
Age relaxation is applicable to eligible reserved and special categories according to the relevant Rajasthan Government and Vidyut Nigam regulations.
Candidates should use the prescribed cut-off date while calculating their age and keep the required category certificates ready.

Final Words
RVUNL JE Recruitment 2026 is one of the important technical government recruitment opportunities for engineering candidates in Rajasthan this year. With 869 Junior Engineer-I vacancies, the recruitment offers positions in Electrical, Mechanical and Civil Engineering across five state-owned power companies.
Electrical Engineering candidates have the largest opportunity with 727 vacancies, followed by Mechanical Engineering with 110 posts and Civil Engineering with 32 posts. The distribution also differs between the participating companies, so candidates should carefully review the vacancy table before finalizing their application.
The online application process is already underway and will close on August 25, 2026. Candidates should complete their applications as early as possible, verify their engineering qualification and upload all required documents correctly.
The selection process is based on a written examination followed by document verification. Since professional knowledge accounts for 120 of the 200 reported marks, candidates should give their engineering subjects the highest priority while also preparing Rajasthan GK, reasoning, mathematics, Hindi and English.
The Junior Engineer position provides an opportunity to work in Rajasthan’s power sector, including generation, transmission and distribution activities. Mechanical candidates can particularly target RVUN, while Civil vacancies are available under RVPN. Electrical candidates have opportunities across all five participating power companies.
Candidates should also pay attention to the qualification requirements. Although some recruitment summaries describe the opportunity broadly for engineering candidates, the detailed eligibility information currently available specifies Bachelor’s-level engineering qualifications for the JEN-I posts. Candidates with only a Diploma should therefore verify the applicable detailed advertisement rather than assuming eligibility.
The reported Pay Matrix Level L-10 and ₹33,800 basic pay make the position attractive for eligible engineers looking for a long-term career in the state power sector. However, candidates should understand the applicable training/probation remuneration and service conditions before applying.
Finally, applicants should regularly check the official RVUNL and participating Vidyut Nigam websites for the admit card, examination schedule, corrigendum, result and document-verification notices. The original recruitment notice specifically states that important updates concerning the recruitment will be published through these official websites.
