IISER Kolkata Multi Post Recruitment 2026: Overview
Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Kolkata (IISER Kolkata) is recruiting regular non-teaching staff for its campus at Mohanpur in Nadia, West Bengal. The institute works under the Ministry of Education and supports education and research in the basic sciences. This direct recruitment notice brings together administrative, engineering, counselling, nursing and support roles, so you should choose the role that matches your background.
Posts and Disciplines
- Senior Superintendent: a Group B administrative post connected with the institute's administrative and institutional support functions.
- Counsellor: a Group B role connected with student counselling in an academic setting.
- Junior Engineer (Civil): a Group B engineering post focused on the civil discipline.
- Nursing Assistant: a Group C nursing post within the institute's non-teaching workforce.
- Jr. Office Assistant (MS): a Group C office support role, listed separately from Jr. Assistant.
- Jr. Assistant (MS): a Group C role linked to office practices or hospitality and catering services.
- Attendant: a Group C support post for which the notice recognises several laboratory, technical and campus-service backgrounds.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Probation: Your appointment starts with a one-year probation period. IISER Kolkata can extend it, and confirmation depends on satisfactory completion; service may also end during probation.
- Service rules: Institute statutes, government orders and applicable service rules govern the appointment. The notice places new appointees under the New Pension Scheme.
- Reservation: Central government reservation rules apply. Category claims must match the relevant Central list, and the category you declare remains fixed for this recruitment.
- Background checks: The institute will check your character and past record. False information or concealed facts can lead to cancellation, including after you join.
- Recruitment changes: IISER Kolkata may change the scope of the exercise or leave advertised posts unfilled. Receiving a call for a test does not promise an appointment.
- Communications: Keep your email address and mobile number active. Call letters and admit cards will be sent by email, while recruitment updates will appear on the institute website.
- Final entries: Check your information carefully because the institute treats application entries as final. Incomplete applications and attempts to influence the recruitment can lead to rejection.
- Interpretation: The English notice takes precedence if language versions differ. Disputes fall under the courts with jurisdiction over Kolkata.
