Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Posting the application close to the deadline — the date that counts is the date it reaches Gurugram, not the date you post it, and WAPCOS accepts no responsibility for postal delay.
- Writing your own format instead of the Annexure-D proforma, or leaving fields in it blank — incomplete applications are not accepted.
- Forgetting to superscribe the envelope with the exact name of the post applied for, which is how WAPCOS sorts applications between the four streams.
- Sending the application without self-attested educational and experience certificates — the notification says such applications are summarily rejected.
- Giving an e-mail address you do not check, since shortlisted candidates are informed only by e-mail.
- Assuming empanelment means a job — the panel is valid for one year and candidates are engaged only as and when the Company requires them.
