Qualifying CTET exam does not guarantee a job to a candidate. It is only one of the eligibility criteria for teacher appointment. Candidates need to appear for the recruitment process of schools such as KVS, NVS and others to get a teaching job. The school managements consider the CTET scores in the teacher recruitment process.

Clearning CTET exam does not guarantee you a job. This exam is conducted at national level for testing the candidates eligibility for teaching at Primary (Class 1 to Class 5) or Elementary levels (Class 6 to Class 8). This exam just makes you eligible to apply for teaching jobs in Government Schools such as KVS, NVS and many more. It does not means that you will necessarily get a job. You have to go through other processes at various schools and you will get a job based on your performace in the entire selection process. CTET scores are considered by school selection committees in recruitment of teachers at Primary or Elementary level.
