NIFTEM JRF Millet Protein Snacks Recruitment 2026: Overview
National Institute of Food Technology Entrepreneurship and Management (NIFTEM) is recruiting Junior Research Fellows for the Millet Based Protein Snack Formulations project.

Service Conditions and Caveats
- Initial tenure: The appointment runs for six months. If you accept the offer, this is the initial period stated in the notice; it does not promise employment beyond that period.
- Possible extension: A longer engagement depends on the project’s needs and your performance. An extension is conditional, so you should read the tenure and extension clauses together when considering the role.
- Project link: The notice identifies this recruitment through Project ID NTIBIF/INC/2025-26/62. Use that reference to distinguish this opportunity from other research fellow notices on the institute’s careers page.
- Travel costs: NIFTEM will not provide travelling allowance or daily allowance for attending the interview. Keep this condition in mind if you are asked to attend in person.
- Communication: The institute will send interview scheduling information only to shortlisted applicants, using the email address in their resumes. Your resume email is therefore the contact point named in the notice for these messages.
- Interview arrangements: The notice allows an in-person or online interview. It does not commit every applicant to one format; the schedule shared with shortlisted applicants will give the relevant arrangement.
- Schedule changes: You are asked to keep checking the NIFTEM website for changes to the interview date or time. Separate communication about such changes is not promised, even though the initial schedule is sent by email.
