What this recruitment is
Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) is Nepal’s central bank, and it runs its own recruitment process to staff positions from Assistant Level up through Officer Level III / Assistant Director. This is a meaningful distinction for a candidate comparing government exam options in Nepal: most of the exams covered on this site that recruit into Nepal’s public sector go through the Public Service Commission’s general civil service track, but Nepal Rastra Bank recruits directly for its own posts, with its own notification, its own online portal and its own selection process, independent of the Public Service Commission cycle.
A recent NRB recruitment notification opened 76 posts spanning Officer Level III / Assistant Director down to Assistant Level II. That vacancy figure has a specific, checkable source; no verified figure for the number of applicants who competed for these posts is available, so this page does not repeat unsourced applicant totals.
Who conducts it and who can apply
Nepal Rastra Bank conducts this recruitment entirely in house, through its own human resources and recruitment functions, rather than through the Public Service Commission. The minimum qualification required varies by post level per the notification: postings at Officer Level and Assistant Director level generally call for a higher academic qualification than Assistant Level postings, but the exact degree requirement, subject eligibility and any professional certification needed for a given post are set out post by post in the current notification rather than fixed uniformly across all levels. Nepali citizenship is required, and candidates should confirm the exact qualification bar for the specific post and level they are applying to directly from the live notification.
The selection process
Nepal Rastra Bank recruitment runs through two stages: a written examination followed by an interview. The written examination is set separately for each post level, testing the general and subject knowledge relevant to that level, and candidates who clear the written stage are called for an interview. Final selection is made from the combined written and interview performance. Unlike some of the security-force recruitments covered on this site, this process does not include a physical fitness stage, since NRB posts are office and analytical roles rather than field postings.
How to apply
Applications for Nepal Rastra Bank recruitment are submitted electronically through the bank’s own portal at jobs.nrb.org.np, reached from the Career section of the main Nepal Rastra Bank website. The application process is run online end to end, including the examination fee, which is paid through Connect IPS or another payment service provider integrated into the portal. Because the specific posts on offer, their qualification requirements and the vacancy count change with each recruitment notification, the live notification on the official Nepal Rastra Bank recruitment channels is the authoritative source for a candidate preparing to apply, and the vacancy figure on this page is marked with its source and the date it was last verified.
