Government of West Bengal: Counsellor Recruitment 2026 - 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for individuals holding a Graduation in Psychology who are seeking entry-level public sector experience within the social welfare domain in West Bengal. Candidates comfortable with contractual employment and passionate about working with the Juvenile Justice Board will find this opportunity suitable. Those belonging to reserved categories will benefit from age relaxation.

Individuals looking for permanent government employment with long-term stability and higher remuneration may find this contractual position unsuitable. Those not possessing a Psychology degree or exceeding the age limit (without applicable relaxations) should not apply. The single vacancy also implies high competition.

As a contractual role within a District Magistrate's office under the Government of West Bengal, this position offers valuable experience in state government social welfare operations. While not a permanent role with immediate career progression, it provides a foundational understanding of the Juvenile Justice system, which can be a stepping stone for future opportunities in social work, counseling, or public service. The institutional reputation is solid due to its government affiliation.
