IGIMS Junior Resident Recruitment 2026 Walk-in for 18 Posts

IGIMS Junior Resident Recruitment 2026 Overview

IGIMS has issued a walk-in recruitment notice for Junior Resident (Non Academic) posts on ad hoc basis for 89 days. The official notice is issued under Advertisement No. 827/MS/2026 and is dated 09 April 2026. The recruitment is for different departments of the institute, and the interview is scheduled at IGIMS, Patna.

This is not a long-term regular appointment notice. The document clearly states that the engagement is for 89 days on ad hoc basis, although it may be extended after 89 days based on satisfactory work, conduct report from the concerned Head of Department and a written request from the doctor concerned.

Important Date, Time and Venue

Candidates should not reach only at the interview hour. The notification specifically says document verification will be done on the same day before the interview, so reporting before the cut-off time is important.

Vacancy Details and Reservation Breakup

The official notice lists 18 vacancies for Junior Resident (Non Academic) on ad hoc basis under the 89-day Junior Residency Programme.

The notice also states that the number of vacancies in each department may increase or decrease. Candidates should therefore treat the published number as the current vacancy position, not as a permanently fixed count.
