Every defence force of the world follows a hierarchy of persons working in it. This hierarchy consists of different posts i.e. commissioned post, junior commissioned post and non-commissioned post that goes from top to bottom. The persons with the commissioned posts are called the ‘officer’ and with the non-commissioned are called as ‘Jawan’.
The importance of Non-commissioned personnel’s is equal to that of commissioned personnel’s. So, along with commissioned entries Indian Armed Forces also recruit candidates for Non-commissioned posts. Indian Army is the second largest army in the world due to its manpower.
Indian Armed forces provide opportunity to have a prestigious job to the candidates with mere educational qualification like class 10th and 12th. Here in this article we are going to provide you the information on various entries with which a candidate can go for non-commissioned jobs of Indian Army.
