Service Conditions and Caveats

• Project setting: You would join the work at IndZita Biotech, the startup named in this advertisement. The notice places this engagement at BRIC-RGCB in Thiruvananthapuram, so keep that project setting in mind when considering the role.
• Initial engagement: The appointment runs for one year initially, or until the project ends if that happens sooner. The shorter of these periods applies to the initial appointment.
• Extension: Continued engagement depends on your performance evaluation. An extension is conditional; the initial offer does not promise work beyond its stated term.
• Project-linked tenure: The position ends with the project. This condition applies even if you hope to continue working at the centre after the research work is complete.
• Future appointments: Taking this role gives you no claim to another RGCB position, whether permanent or otherwise. Treat it as an appointment tied to this funded project.
• Application format: Use the prescribed form for this advertisement. The centre says applications in another format will be rejected, so your choice of form matters.
• Separate applications: If you also want to pursue another advertised position, you need a separate form for that position. One application does not cover multiple roles.
• Government employees: If you already work in a government firm, apply through the proper channel as directed in the notice.
