SGPGIMS Senior and Junior Resident Recruitment 2026

SGPGIMS Senior and Junior Resident Recruitment 2026: Overview

Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGIMS), Lucknow is holding a walk-in drive for Senior Resident (Hospital Services) and Junior Resident (Non-Academic) appointments. The openings support the Apex Trauma Centre, General Hospital and specialist departments. You will join through the institute’s short-term rolling recruitment arrangement, with department-specific seats listed in the main and supplementary notices.

Posts and Disciplines

• Forensic Medicine: Senior Resident appointments under the Apex Trauma Centre.
• Trauma Surgery: Senior Resident appointments under the Apex Trauma Centre, with a Junior Resident fallback for the seats specifically marked in the notice.
• Psychiatry: The main matrix lists psychiatrists under the Apex Trauma Centre.
• Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation: Senior Resident appointments in the Apex Trauma Centre’s rehabilitation discipline.
• Lab Medicine: The Apex Trauma Centre row permits Senior Resident or Junior Resident engagement under the stated fallback condition.
• General Hospital: Junior Resident appointments under the non-academic category.
• Maternal and Reproductive Health: Senior Resident appointments added through the supplementary advertisement.
• Radiodiagnosis: Senior Resident appointments added in the same supplement.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Appointment length: Each engagement lasts up to 89 days or until a regular appointment is made, whichever comes first. You should plan around this short-term arrangement.
• Further terms: Up to two additional terms may be allowed, with the required cooling period. Continuation depends on satisfactory work, the department head’s recommendation and an available seat in the applicable category.
• Reservation: Uttar Pradesh domicile is necessary to claim reservation benefits. Applicants from reserved communities who have domicile outside Uttar Pradesh are considered under the unreserved category.
• Cross-category consideration: The brochure permits consideration from another category when suitable applicants for a reserved seat are unavailable. For an SC/ST seat, it describes consideration of OBC applicants before unreserved applicants; an unfilled OBC seat can pass to an unreserved applicant.
• Continuation across categories: If you join against another category’s seat, further engagement generally needs a fresh interview. An extension without a fresh interview may be considered if a seat in your own category becomes available, subject to the institute’s conditions.
• Joining: You must join within 7 days of receiving the appointment letter by email. Missing the joining window cancels the offer and allows the institute to approach the next person on its waiting list.
• Campus residence: Residents must live on campus. Semi-furnished hostel accommodation is provided according to institute policy, and the authorities may assign you anywhere within SGPGIMS.
• Seat changes: The institute can increase or reduce the advertised requirement. The fallback from Senior Resident to Junior Resident applies only where the main matrix marks it.

Application Submission Notes

• Department reporting: Attend in person at the concerned department office between 10:30 AM and 1:30 PM, hand in the prescribed application and sign the attendance register.
