About HSSC CET Group D
The Haryana Staff Selection Commission recruits for Group D posts in Haryana government departments, boards and corporations through its Common Eligibility Test (CET) for Group D posts.

The previous CET for Group D was held on 21 and 22 October 2023 under Advt. No. 01/2023; the next was advertised on 18 June 2026 as Advt. No. 05/2026, with the exam date to be announced separately.
