About Staff Selection CommissionSSC was set-up by the Estimate committee of parliament, for conducting the examinations and making the recruitments to non-technical (group c), non-gazetted (group b) posts in departments of government of India. It is a as per the 47th report of the committee (1967-68). It also conducts deparmental examinations for various posts.
                           
Its main functions and responsibilities is supervising and over-seeing its fields operations and establishing report with state government and their departments.It also makes arrangements for impartial and smooth conduct of exams ,assisting interview boards etc.SSC recruits most of the work forces of the central government and the people recruited by SSC will act as the interface between the government and the public and helps them in implementing the policies of the government.
