Eligibility Criteria
This list does not repeat qualification, age or pay. Where a row below says “earlier advertisement”, it comes from NHM’s detailed advertisement for Medical Officers and Specialists dated 21.07.2024, which is still on the NHM website. Check nhm.uk.gov.in for newer terms.
| Criterion | Detail |
|---|---|
| Council Registration | Registration with the Uttarakhand Medical Council is mandatory (stated in this notification). |
| Medical Officer | MBBS from a recognised institution (earlier advertisement). |
| Specialist | MBBS with a PG degree or diploma in the related speciality (earlier advertisement). |
| Age Limit | Not given in this notification. The earlier advertisement says maximum 65 years. The application form still prints “Age as on 01 July, 2024”. |
| Application Restriction | If you already work in NHM Uttarakhand, bring an NOC (No Objection Certificate, a letter from the Mission Director or your district Chief Medical Officer saying you may apply). Earlier advertisement. |
In short: you need your medical degree and an Uttarakhand Medical Council registration. This notice does not say whether a registration that is still in process is accepted.
Who Should Apply
- These are contract jobs, not permanent ones. NHM’s earlier advertisements describe a contract that starts at 11 months and can be renewed.
- Pediatricians are the biggest group: 14 of the 21 Specialist posts, spread over SNCU, LaQshay, DEIC and NUHM units.
- Each post is tied to a named hospital or district, so check the place before you go. The form lets you list up to five places in order of preference.
- Nothing published so far describes a written exam. You are picked at the interview.
Who should skip this: doctors without Uttarakhand Medical Council registration, and anyone already working in NHM Uttarakhand who cannot get an NOC. The earlier advertisement also says no travel allowance is paid for the interview.
- ESIC Gwalior Senior Resident, Specialist – 27 Posts (walk-in 18.11.2026, Madhya Pradesh)
- AFMS Medical Officer – 120 Posts (apply by 18.11.2026, all India)
- CRPF GDMO – 15 Posts (walk-in 02.12.2026)
Selection Process
| Stage | Details |
|---|---|
| 1. Reporting and registration | Reach the Mission Director’s office, Dehradun. Registration closes at 12 noon (earlier advertisement). |
| 2. Document check | Submit the application form, CV and self-attested copies. Originals are checked. |
| 3. Interview | A selection committee judges your eligibility and suitability. No marks or written test are described. |
| 4. Result | NHM publishes the result on its website. The form says shortlisted candidates are told about the interview by e-mail. |
In short: there is no written exam in what NHM has published. You are chosen at the interview, and the job is a contract, not a permanent post.
Salary and Benefits
| Component | Detail |
|---|---|
| Medical Officer | Rs 60,000 a month (earlier advertisement) |
| Specialist | Rs 90,000 to Rs 2,30,000 a month. NHM says it depends on qualification, experience and terrain. |
| Type of job | Contract. The posts are not transferable. |
| Travel allowance | Not paid for attending the interview |
In plain terms, a Medical Officer starts at about Rs 60,000 a month. A Specialist’s pay is a range, and your place in it depends on your degree, experience and where you are posted. These figures come from the 2024 advertisement, so confirm them at the interview.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Going without Uttarakhand Medical Council registration. The notice calls it mandatory.
- Sending the form early. The notice asks for the application on the day of the interview.
- Writing an e-mail ID you do not use. NHM says it will inform shortlisted candidates by e-mail.
- Forgetting “Position Applied for” on the envelope, or leaving the preference-of-posting page blank.
- Treating the vacancy numbers as final. NHM says they can go up or down on the interview day.
