Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Submitting a single application for two departments — a separate application must be filed for each post you want to be considered for.
- Missing the 05:00 PM cut-off on 08.09.2026; the Google Form closes on time and there is no offline or postal alternative.
- Uploading an OBC-NCL certificate issued before 01.04.2026 — only certificates issued within the 2026-27 financial year window will be accepted for this advertisement.
- Turning up at the interview without the original certificates, the filled Annexure I and Annexure II, or the NEFT payment receipt.
- Serving government employees arriving without a No Objection Certificate from their present employer.
- Applying after already completing three years of Senior Residency under the Residency Scheme, which makes a candidate ineligible regardless of merit.
- Assuming a PG degree not recognised by the NMC will be accepted — such candidates are not allowed to appear for the interview.
