What Is the Selection Process for ESIC Varanasi Recruitment 2026?
Selection is on the basis of academic credentials and your performance in the interview before the Selection Board. The result will be displayed on the ESIC website, and the offer of appointment will be sent by e-mail. The notice does not describe any other stage, so do not assume one. Because your credentials and your interview are what count, put your best proof first: degree certificates, experience letters and publications. The form asks for publications, and only NMC approved publications will be considered, so do not pad that list with anything else.
