Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Don’t wait for the last date/time to apply — NGEL is not responsible for candidates unable to submit due to last-minute rush.
- Choose your category (General/EWS/SC/ST/OBC-NCL/ESM/PwBD) carefully — it cannot be changed after submission, and no benefit of another category will be given later.
- Apply for only one post out of the 8 — you can apply to just one for which you’re eligible.
- Double-check every field before final submission — the form cannot be edited once submitted.
- Keep the application fee payment receipt and the printed Application Slip for future reference; do not post any documents to NGEL’s office.
- If you submit multiple applications for the same post by mistake, only the one with the higher Application Sequence Number will be considered — so don’t assume your first attempt is void and re-apply carelessly.
