Eligibility Criteria
The notice itself gives no qualification, age or pay. It points to the Information Brochure on the SGPGIMS website, so the details below come from there.
Criterion
Detail

Who Can Appear
All interested candidates can appear for the same or other category seats
Domicile and Reservation
Reservation applies only with Uttar Pradesh domicile (UP as your home state). Others count as Unreserved.
Unfilled Reserved Seats
Goes to the open category if no suitable reserved candidate is found. SC and ST seats go to OBC first, then Unreserved.
Category
Age Relaxation
SC / ST / OBC candidates with UP domicile
Up to 5 years
Widowed, divorced or legally separated women who have not remarried
Up to 5 years
Persons with disability
Up to 5 years
In short: your age is counted on 30.10.2026. A doctor who is 44 on that day fits the Senior Resident limit, but one who is 31 does not fit the Junior Resident limit unless a relaxation applies to them.
Not sure whether you are within the age limit?
Enter your date of birth, use 30.10.2026 as the cut-off date and add your category relaxation to see at once whether you fit the 45-year limit for Senior Resident or the 30-year limit for Junior Resident.
This is short-term work: each appointment lasts 89 days or until a regular doctor joins, and the brochure allows up to two more 89-day terms if your work report is good and a seat is free.
Microbiology has the most seats, 5 of the 15, including 2 of the 3 EWS seats.
Check your domicile before counting on a reserved seat, because reserved-category doctors from outside Uttar Pradesh are treated as Unreserved.
Hepatology and General Hospital take Junior Resident (MBBS) candidates only, while the other five departments take Senior Residents, and Medical Oncology takes either.
You must stay on campus in a semi-furnished hostel and can be posted anywhere in the institute, from patient care to teaching, research or emergency duty.
