The RRB NTPC selection process consists of the following stages:

- Stage 1: Computer Based Test (CBT-1) – Common for all candidates
- Stage 2: Computer Based Test (CBT-2) – Separate for graduate and undergraduate level posts
- Stage 3: Typing Skill Test (for select posts like Junior Clerk) or Computer Based Aptitude Test (CBAT) (for Station Master and Traffic Assistant)
- Stage 4: Document Verification and Medical Examination

Key points:
- CBT-1 is qualifying in nature; marks do not count toward final merit.
- Final merit is based on CBT-2 marks only (plus normalization).
- CBAT and Typing Test are qualifying; no marks are awarded.
- Candidates must pass each stage to proceed to the next.
