4. Mode of Selection:

• The prescribed essential qualifications are the bare minimum and mere possession of the
same will not vest any right in a candidate for being called for interview. Where number of
applications received in response to the advertisement is large, it may not be convenient or
possible for the Institute to interview all the candidates. The Institute may restrict the number
of candidates to be called for interview to a reasonable limit after scrutiny by a duly
constituted Screening Committee on the basis of qualifications and experience higher than
that of the minimum prescribed in the Advertisement. The Screening Committee can adopt its
own criteria to shortlist the candidates. The candidate should, therefore, mention in the
application, all the qualifications and experience in the relevant field over and above the
minimum prescribed qualification supported with documents. A screening test may also be
conducted for short-listing the candidates for interview if it is considered necessary.

11
 • Candidate should ensure that he/she possesses educational qualification/experience in the
relevant area as required in the category/post, for which he/she is applying, on the last date

Institutions. Candidates possessing recognized equivalent qualification as mentioned against
each post above are also eligible to apply.
• The period of experience in the requisite discipline/area of work wherever prescribed shall be
counted with effect from the date of acquiring the prescribed minimum educational
qualifications required for that post.
• Only outstation candidates called and found eligible for interview will be paid to and fro single
second class rail fare from the actual place of undertaking the journey or from the normal
place of their residence whichever is nearer to the place of interview on production of Rail
Tickets/Rail Ticket Numbers or any other proof of journey. Any discrepancy found between
the information given in application and as evident in original documents will make the
candidate ineligible for appearing in interview. Such candidate will not be paid any fare.

5. Canvassing in any form or bringing of any influence, political or otherwise, will be treated as a
disqualification.
