Not sure whether you are within the age limit?

Open the Age Calculator🧮 CAN I APPLY? THREE QUICK EXAMPLES
- General-category candidate born on 12.08.2000, with a matching ITI, applying for Technician (limit 27). On 10.12.2026 this person is 26 years 3 months old. ✅ Eligible.
- OBC (NCL) candidate born on 14.02.1997, with a matching ITI, applying for Technician. On 10.12.2026 this person is 29 years 9 months old, above the General limit of 27. The 3-year OBC (NCL) relaxation lifts the limit to 30. ✅ Eligible, because of the 3-year relaxation.
- General-category candidate born on 20.09.1998 applying for Junior Assistant (limit 27). On 10.12.2026 this person is 28 years 2 months old, more than a year over. ❌ Not eligible for Junior Assistant. The same person is inside the 33-year limit for Senior Assistant, which asks for the same Class 12 and typing skills.
These are made-up examples that apply the rules in the tables above. Ages are counted on 10.12.2026. The notice does not say how it counts a candidate who is only a few months over a limit. If you are that close, write to recruitment@manit.ac.in before you pay the fee.
Who Should Apply
- These are regular jobs. The notice says appointments are made on direct recruitment with one year of probation, and confirmed staff continue until retirement age.
- 29 of the 55 seats are Senior Technician and Technician posts. They take Class 12 Science, an ITI or a 3-year diploma, so you do not need a degree for them.
- Senior Assistant and Junior Assistant need Class 12, typing at 35 words per minute, and Word and Spreadsheet skills.
- The four Group B posts (Pay Level 6) ask for first-class marks: a first-class degree for most, or a first-class diploma for Technical Assistant.
- Women pay only the Rs 885 processing charge and no application fee. The notice does not mention seats kept for women.
Who should skip this: anyone whose trade is not in the Annexure-II list, because the notice says such candidates may not be allowed into the trade test for Technical Assistant, Senior Technician or Technician. Skip the two Assistant posts if you cannot type 35 words per minute. If you want the old pension, note that new appointees join the New Pension Scheme (NPS-2004). The test is in Bhopal, and the notice says it will not change the venue on request.

Selection Process
| Stage | Details |
|---|---|
| 1. Screening of applications | MANIT may shortlist applications using only the rules for each post, to limit how many people are called |
| 2. Screening test | Online test, held in Bhopal; Indore and New Delhi may be used if many people apply. If it runs in several sessions, scores are adjusted (equated) for small differences in difficulty |
| 3. Written test and/or skill test | The notice says the process “may consist of” these. It does not yet say which post gets which |
| 4. Trade test | For Technical Assistant, Senior Technician and Technician, if shortlisted. You must hold the qualification in the trade you pick |
| 5. Document verification | Bring originals, one set of copies, the printed application and the fee receipt |
| What is not announced yet | Test dates, syllabus, marks and pass marks. The scoring rules mention a penalty for wrong answers but not its size. Cut-offs apply on each test and on the total score |
In short: expect an online test in Bhopal first, and for the three technical posts a trade test in your own trade after that. MANIT has not yet given marks, pass marks, dates or syllabus, so watch the MANIT website.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Applying for two posts on one form: the notice needs a separate form and fee for each post. For a General candidate, three posts cost Rs 5,310.
- Signing in capital letters, or having someone else write the declaration: either makes the application invalid.
- Using an OBC (NCL) or EWS certificate issued before 01.04.2026: it will not be counted.
- Pressing Back or Refresh during payment, or not getting an e-receipt: no e-receipt means the payment failed.
- Choosing a trade you do not hold: you may be kept out of the trade test.
- Waiting for the last day: the notice says no extension requests will be considered.
