• Basic pay: ₹.56,100/- p.m. + DA + TA + HRA

Note: Post is permanent, subject to completion of Probation.

SEATS:

Electronics (BE001): 21 Mechanical (BE002): 33 Computer Science (BE003): 14 Note: The selection Ratio is 1:7 so take the number of seats in a branch and you can multiply it by 7 and that’s the approximate rank till which candidates will be called for the interview. Eg: For Mechanical Engineering, Approximately Up to 230 Rank.

NO WRITTEN TEST: It is mentioned that vacancies will be filled up partially through GATE scores and partially through Written Tests. However, there is no mention of a written test in this notification. Seems like this vacancy is through the GATE score and the written test may come up in the future.

... at the time of the Interview or as and when called for by ISRO. This means it should be with you at the time of the written test as well (If there is a written test, irrelevant in this case).

• Note that you will require the NOC dated on or before your application.

• A lot of candidates plan on getting NOC after the selection for the interview. This might cause problems because of the date mentioned on the NOC.

• It is also mentioned clearly in the next line: “However, the candidate should apply for the post only under intimation to and with the prior permission of the employer.”

• Original NOC should be carried for the interview.
