Everything you need to know about the Tamil Nadu Medical Services Recruitment Board exams, eligibility, and application process.

# What is TN MRB?

The Medical Services Recruitment Board (MRB) was constituted by the Government of Tamil Nadu with the objective of making appointments to various categories of staff in the Health and Family Welfare Department. It ensures a speedy and transparent recruitment process for vital healthcare roles.

Unlike TNPSC which recruits for general administrative posts, MRB focuses exclusively on medical and para-medical personnel, including Doctors, Nurses, Pharmacists, Radiographers, Lab Technicians, and Physiotherapists.

# Major Posts & Qualifications

MRB conducts recruitment for a wide variety of posts. Here are the most common ones:

1. Assistant Surgeon (General)

  • Registration: Must be a registered practitioner within the Tamil Nadu Medical Council.
  • Selection: Computer Based Test (CBT).

2. Nurses (Staff Nurse)

  • Registration: Tamil Nadu Nurses and Midwives Council.
  • Selection: Written Examination or Marks Verification.

  • Selection: Weightage of academic marks (SSLC + HSC + Diploma/Degree).

4. Lab Technician (Grade III)

  • Qualification: 12th Pass + Certificate in Medical Lab Technology (CMLT).
  • Selection: Academic merit.

# Selection Procedure

The selection methodology varies by post:

  • Competitive Exam: For posts like Assistant Medical Officer and Assistant Surgeon, a Computer Based Test (CBT) involves 100-200 questions.
  • Academic & Technical Weightage: For many para-medical posts (Pharmacist, Lab Tech), selection is strictly based on marks obtained in your qualifying degrees/diplomas. There is no interview for these posts.
