AYJNISHD Walk-in Recruitment 2026 is meant for candidates looking for short-term contractual roles in rehabilitation, therapy, child support, nursing, special education and activity-based teaching. The recruitment is for 25 posts and is linked to positions at CDEIC, AYJNISHD Mumbai and CRC Ahmedabad. This is not a regular online application cycle. Eligible candidates need to appear directly for the walk-in process on the scheduled dates with the required documents.
The most important thing to understand before going further is that AYJNISHD has not released one common eligibility rule for all posts. The qualification depends entirely on the role. Some posts require advanced rehabilitation or psychology qualifications with valid RCI registration, while support posts such as Ayah/Cleaner and Trained Caregiver have lower minimum educational requirements. That makes post selection the first step for any applicant.
If you are planning to attend the walk-in, focus on four things first: your exact post-wise eligibility, the interview date and location, the fee amount, and the documents you need to carry. This article is structured around those practical points so you can quickly decide whether to attend and what to prepare.
What AYJNISHD Walk-in Recruitment 2026 is about
AYJNISHD has invited candidates for 25 contractual and consultant posts through walk-in interview. The vacancies are for CDEIC, AYJNISHD Mumbai and CRC Ahmedabad. The recruitment is meant for professional rehabilitation roles as well as support roles connected to care, therapy, education and child-focused services.
This is a walk-in process, so there is no standard long application cycle. Candidates need to report on the scheduled interview date with documents, fee payment proof if required at the venue, and all supporting certificates in original and photocopy form.

Post-wise eligibility and qualification summary
| Post | Essential qualification |
|---|---|
| Rehabilitation / Clinical Psychologist | M.Phil in Clinical Psychology or Rehabilitation Psychology with valid RCI registration |
| Occupational Therapist | Bachelor in Occupational Therapy with valid registration |
| Audiologist & Speech Language Pathologist | Bachelor in Speech & Hearing or BASLP with valid RCI registration |

| Ayah / Cleaner | 8th Pass with minimum 2 years of child care experience |
| Activity Teacher (Part-Time) | Diploma or Degree in Arts, Craft, Music or Dance with 2 years of training experience with children |
For many professional posts, AYJNISHD has also mentioned preference for candidates who have worked with children with disabilities below 6 years of age. That experience can matter in shortlisting or interview evaluation even where it is listed as desirable rather than essential.
Which candidates are the best fit for these posts
This recruitment is best suited for candidates with a background in rehabilitation, therapy, audiology, special education, early intervention and child care support. It is especially relevant if you already have hands-on experience working with children with disabilities, developmental needs or early intervention settings.
- Clinical and rehabilitation candidates should check whether their RCI registration is valid and current.
- Therapy candidates should keep both qualification and registration proof ready.
- Support staff applicants should be ready to show child-care experience where it is required.
- Activity-based posts are practical in nature, so experience in training children is important.
If you do not meet the exact post-specific qualification, attending the walk-in may not help because document verification happens before or during the interview process.
Salary offered for each post
| Post | Monthly salary |
|---|---|
| Rehabilitation / Clinical Psychologist | Rs. 40,000 |
| Occupational Therapist | Rs. 35,000 |
| Audiologist & Speech Language Pathologist | Rs. 35,000 |
| Early Interventionist | Rs. 35,000 |
| Special Educator | Rs. 35,000 |
| Physiotherapist | Rs. 35,000 |
| Nurse | Rs. 30,000 |
| Trained Caregiver / Divyang Mitra | Rs. 20,000 |
| Ayah / Cleaner | Rs. 18,000 |
| Activity Teacher (Part-Time) | Rs. 15,000 |
The salary is consolidated. Candidates should treat these as fixed contractual amounts unless the official notice separately states local terms or tenure conditions.
Application fee and payment point to note
The application fee is Rs. 300 per post per person and it is non-refundable. This means if you want to be considered for more than one post, the fee requirement applies separately for each post as mentioned in the recruitment summary.
Before spending on multiple applications, it is sensible to apply only for roles where you clearly meet the essential qualification and registration requirement.
Documents to carry for the walk-in interview
Candidates should attend with a complete document set because the recruitment process includes document verification. A practical checklist includes:
- Original educational certificates and mark sheets
- One set of self-attested photocopies of all certificates
- Valid registration certificate wherever required, including RCI or relevant professional registration
- Identity proof
- Experience certificates
- Category certificate if applicable
- Recent passport-size photographs
- Duly filled application form if required at the reporting stage
Do not rely only on digital copies on your phone. Original documents and photocopies are both important in walk-in recruitment.
Selection process and how the walk-in works
The selection process is straightforward and consists of document verification followed by walk-in interview. There is no separate written test mentioned in the recruitment summary for these posts.
- Report at the venue on the scheduled date.
- Complete the registration or attendance formalities as instructed.
- Submit or show the required documents for verification.
- Appear for the interview for the post you have chosen.
Because the process is short and direct, missing documents or reporting late can make a candidate ineligible even before the interview stage starts.
Important points candidates should check before attending
- Confirm whether your post is scheduled at Mumbai or Ahmedabad.
- Read the official notification fully because professional posts often have specific registration requirements.
- Check whether your experience matches the child-focused work preference mentioned for the post.
- Carry originals, photocopies and photographs together.
- Do not assume that one eligibility certificate can be used for unrelated posts.
- Treat the fee as non-refundable and post-specific.
If you are applying for a professional therapy or rehabilitation role, registration validity is just as important as your degree. If you are applying for a support post, practical experience in child care may carry real weight during the interview.
