Preparation Strategy

Cover Basic Postal Knowledge and Postal Operations thoroughly as per the Directorate syllabus (Annexure IV) — focus on rules, services and day-to-day operations.
Practice reading, writing and comprehension in the local language required by the Circle/Division (West Bengal) if you opt for Postman/Mail Guard.
Build computer speed and accuracy: practise data-entry exercises and timed typing drills in English to simulate the 15-minute DEST.
Revise General Awareness (current affairs, national schemes) and do timed mock papers to improve accuracy and time management.
