| Educational Qualification (medical candidates) | MBBS recognised under the IMC Act, 1956 or by the NMC, plus a postgraduate degree in the subject of the post: MD or MS for most departments, DM for Cardiology, Gastroenterology, Medical Oncology, Neonatology, Nephrology, Neurology and Pulmonary Medicine, and MCh for Burns and Plastic Surgery, Pediatric Surgery, Surgical Oncology and Urology.

| Age Limit | Maximum 50 years as on 13.11.2026, the last date of online application Check your age eligibility → |
| DNB holders | A DNB counts as equal to MD/MS or DM/MCh only if earned in a medical institution with an attached hospital, or in a hospital of 500 or more beds (NMC notification dated 14.02.2022). Otherwise one extra year of experience is needed, which makes 4 years in total for Assistant Professor. |
| Cut-off date for eligibility | You must have passed the qualifying exam and completed the required experience on or before 13.11.2026. If you finish later, your candidature is cancelled. |
| Course still running | If you are doing DM, MCh or a fellowship, you can join only if you finish it before the last joining date in your offer letter |
| Application restriction | One online form and one fee for each post. Apply separately for each post you want. |
Teaching or research experience needed
| Post | MD/MS (general) | DM/MCh – 2 or 5 year course | DM/MCh – 3 year course | Non-medical (after PhD) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assistant Professor | 3 years | 1 year | No extra experience | 3 years |
| Associate Professor | 6 years | 4 years | 3 years | 6 years |
| Additional Professor | 10 years | 8 years | 7 years | 10 years |
| Professor | 14 years | 12 years | 11 years | 14 years |
Experience counts only if you earned it after getting the required postgraduate degree, in the subject of the post, at a college or institution recognised by the NMC, MCI or UGC.
Age relaxation
| Category | Relaxation (beyond 50 years) |
|---|---|
| SC / ST | 5 years |
| OBC | 3 years |
| PwBD | 5 years |
| Government servant (regular Central Government employee only) | 5 years, with the Annexure III certificate from your employer. Not available to staff of autonomous bodies, state governments or PSUs. |
| SC / ST / OBC applying against unreserved (UR) posts | No relaxation (PwBD relaxation applies either way) |
So an OBC candidate can be up to 53 years old on 13.11.2026, and an SC or ST candidate up to 55. The extra years apply only when you compete for a reserved post.
Selection Process
| Stage | Details |
|---|---|
| 1. Shortlisting (only if needed) | The institute may hold a written test or screening, based on objective criteria, to pick the candidates it will call for interview. The decision of the Competent Authority is final. No marks or syllabus are given in the notice. |
| 2. Personal interview | You must appear in person at the Board Room, 6th Floor, Academic Block, AIIMS Vijaypur, Jammu, reporting at 9:30 AM. Online interviews are not allowed. The interview date will be notified separately. Selection depends on how you perform in the interview. |
| 3. Document verification | Originals are checked at the interview. Bring a printout of your online form and a set of self-attested photocopies of everything you uploaded. If you cannot show a certificate, you will not be interviewed. |
| 4. Medical check and joining | You are appointed only if found medically fit. Joining time is 30 days from the appointment letter. The probation period (trial period) for all faculty posts is two years. |
In short: the interview decides the result, but you may have to clear a shortlisting step first. Canvassing (asking people to influence your selection) disqualifies you.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Sending the online form but forgetting the hard copy: it must reach the Registrar by 18.11.2026 or your candidature is cancelled.
- Counting experience that ends after 13.11.2026: you must have the full experience by that date.
- Using an old OBC or EWS certificate: only certificates issued from 01.04.2026 to 13.11.2026 count for the reserved post.
- Skipping the NOC if you work in a Government or autonomous body: without it you will not be allowed to appear for the interview.
- Paying one fee for two posts: each post needs its own form and its own fee, and the fee is not refunded.
- Uploading a tiny or unclear photo or signature: the form is rejected without any message.
