βοΈ Editor's Note
While the 119 vacancies may seem low compared to mass-recruitment drives, the Section Controller role is a specialized position with significant operational responsibility. Candidates often get disqualified during the application phase due to mismatching signature dimensions or incorrect photo formatsβensure you use the exact specifications mentioned in the official CEN. Because this is a highly technical role, focus your preparation on the syllabus early, as the transition from application closure to exam date can be shorter than expected.
