The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has announced a significant update for candidates appearing in various Delhi Police recruitment examinations in 2025. For the first time, SSC is allowing candidates to choose their preferred exam date and city through a self-slot selection process. This facility is available for the following exams: Constable (Driver) – Male, Constable (Executive) – Male and Female, Head Constable (Ministerial), and Head Constable (AWO/TPO) scheduled for December 2025 and January 2026.
The self-slot selection is a one-time opportunity and must be exercised within the official schedule. Candidates who fail to select their preferred slot will not receive their admit card, and their candidature will be considered withdrawn. This new system is expected to bring more flexibility and convenience to the aspirants appearing for the Delhi Police recruitment exams.

The self-slot selection facility opened on 5 December 2025 for all four Delhi Police exams. The schedule of the exams and the last date to select the exam slot are as follows:
| Name of the Exam | Exam Dates | Slot Selection Window |
