The 69 positions reported in NABARD’s 2018 recruitment drive were split between two different roles: 62 Development Assistants and 7 Assistant Managers (Grade A) in the Protocol & Security Service. The Development Assistant application window ran from August 27 to September 12, 2018, and has long since closed.
What were the 69 NABARD vacancies?
The figure of 69 was a combined count, not the number of Development Assistant openings. A contemporary Scroll.in report described two role groups:
| Role | Reported vacancies |
|---|---|
| Development Assistant | 62 |
| Assistant Manager, Grade A, Protocol & Security Service | 7 |
The two figures add up to the 69 positions cited in the headline. They refer to distinct roles and should not be treated as one recruitment stream with shared eligibility or selection requirements. The combined breakdown is reported by Scroll.in; the available NABARD archive independently confirms a Development Assistant recruitment in 2018.
When could candidates apply?
For the Development Assistant recruitment, Advertisement No. 3/DA/2018-19 invited eligible Indian citizens to apply online through NABARD’s website. Online registration and fee payment were open from August 27 through September 12, 2018, according to a reproduced copy of the notice hosted by a third party: Development Assistant notice. The September 12 deadline is also reported by Scroll.in.

What selection process did the Development Assistant notice describe?
The notice described preliminary and main online examinations. It said exact examination dates would be announced separately on NABARD’s website, so the notice itself does not establish dates to use as a schedule.
Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.How can readers verify that the recruitment is historical?
NABARD’s career archive lists a Development Assistant 2018 recruitment entry and references preliminary and main examination results. That record confirms that the recruitment and subsequent exam activity belong to the past; it does not make the 2018 application available again.
The surviving evidence is not identical for both role groups: NABARD’s archive confirms the Development Assistant recruitment, while the combined 69-vacancy total and the 7 Assistant Manager positions are reported by Scroll.in. The available copy of the Development Assistant notice is hosted outside NABARD.
