You have only 10 days from the advertisement to apply, so please do it today. See more on our Latest Jobs page.
Important Dates
No calendar date is printed, only “within 10 days from the date of publication”. The file name hints at 3 November, which would mean about 13 November. To be safe, send your CV as soon as you can.
Vacancy and Category-wise Details
Two openings, with no categories shown.
Who Can Apply?
Any graduate with at least 55 percent. You stand a better chance if you have a PG in Journalism and Mass Communication, or if you understand social and religious issues.
What Is the Job?
You will mostly collect information in the field, and help with other research tasks. The advert says you may have to visit all parts of the country. So this is not a desk job. If you enjoy new places and meeting people, it could be exciting. Please ask about travel costs and stay, as the advert does not cover them.
Selection and Exam Pattern
No exam is mentioned. A committee shortlists on merit, and the interview details come by email. So use a working email ID, and check it daily.
How to Apply
- Update your CV.
- Scan attested copies of your degrees.
- Email them to Dr. Amit Sharma, Project Director, at amit@allduniv.ac.in.
Write the post name in your subject line, which is our suggestion for keeping things clear.
