Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not fill one form for multiple posts — a separate registration and a separate online form is required for each post you apply for.
- Do not submit the form without checking the photograph and signature preview; AIIMS Jodhpur explicitly rejects applications where either image is not clearly visible in the preview.
- Do not apply for a department or specialty in which you do not hold the exact qualification and experience — eligibility is assessed against the advertised department, and the generic Recruitment Rules will not save a mismatched application.
- Do not assume experience gained before your essential qualification counts — only experience acquired after obtaining the essential qualification for the applied post is considered.
- Do not skip the NOC if you are currently in regular government or government-funded service; missing it means disqualification from the interview process.
- Do not expect a fee refund — the fee is non-refundable, except the Rs. 200/- fee which is returned (less bank charges) only to candidates who actually appear for the interview.
- Do not leave the application to the last hour; the portal closes at 05:00 PM on 12.09.2026 and late or incomplete applications are not considered.
