As per the report, the board's annual report for 2025-26 shows 191 sanctioned posts across categories, with 174 filled and 17 vacant. With its own service rules in place, the board will be able to recruit its own staff in the future.

Impact on LDC Recruitment
At present, when an LDC recruitment notification is issued, posts of the Rajasthan Public Service Commission and the Secretariat are shown separately because both have their own cadres. After the service rules come into force, posts of the Rajasthan Staff Selection Board may also be shown separately in future LDC recruitment.
Chairman's Statement
According to board chairman Alok Raj, employees from other departments work with effort and honesty, but with the board's own service rules now framed, future recruitments could also fill the board's own posts.
