- Sending the application by email instead of by post, since emailed applications are explicitly not accepted.
- Using a self-made format instead of the prescribed application format available on www.goashipyard.in.
- Submitting the application without attesting copies of all relevant certificates or without pasting a passport-size photograph.
- Applying after having already completed an apprenticeship in the same trade, which makes the candidate ineligible.
