These posts are advertised now, but the seat is not empty yet. The notice marks them with a star and a “to be vacated on” date, and it does not say what happens if the date moves. If one of these is your target post, apply as usual, but do not plan your resignation or a transfer from your current job around the date alone. Ask the university through its recruitment email if you are unsure.

The notice says that the Recruitment Rules, general instructions and the detailed procedure are available on the university website. Open the HBTU website (link in Essential Links below) and read the rules for your own post and department before you apply. Do not assume the rules of another university apply here.
Three levels are advertised, and they are not interchangeable: Professor, Associate Professor and Assistant Professor. Decide which level your career so far fits, and then apply to the department that matches your subject. A single candidate can apply for more than one advertisement only if the university rules allow it, so check that on the website rather than assuming.
Because no age limit is printed, we have left out the Age Calculator on this page. Once you read the age rule on the HBTU website, count your age on the date it names.

| Reservation | As per UP Government norms (Vertical and Horizontal) |

Two of these lines need extra care. The first one means a post shown in the table can still change, so check the university website again before the last date. The third one is strict: there is no mention of sending documents later, so the upload is your only chance.
