Directorate of Medical Education and Training, Odisha (DMET Odisha) Senior Resident & Tutor Recruitment 2026

DMET Odisha has released a notification (Ref No. MET-II-REC-01/2026-16371 dated 10.07.2026) for filling up posts of Senior Residents and Tutors in different Government Medical Colleges of the state on a contractual/deputation basis. These are non-practicing posts — private practice by a selected candidate leads to immediate termination of service. The vacancy count is provisional and subject to change as on the date of the walk-in interview; any vacancies that arise after counselling will be filled through a fresh advertisement. Reservation will be applied vacancy-wise as per Government of Odisha guidelines. This is a good opportunity for MBBS and postgraduate doctors looking to gain teaching and clinical experience in a government medical college while earning a steady income.
