- Preference: ex-servicemen are given preference. Civilian candidates can apply but rank behind eligible ex-servicemen with the same qualification.
- Age: the notice does not state an age limit. ECHS's standard terms and conditions for contractual staff are on echs.gov.in and should be read before applying.
The notice states that only candidates who meet the qualitative requirement should apply, so applications from candidates without a BSc Nursing degree or with less than three years' experience are unlikely to be called for interview.
Pay and Tenure
- Remuneration: Rs. 36,500, described in the notice as fixed remuneration. Details of remuneration and other terms are on the ECHS website.
- Tenure: the engagement runs up to 31 March 2027 and is subject to the candidate's performance and the other conditions in the ECHS terms. That is about five months from the interview date, so treat this as a short-term contract rather than a standing post.
