RGNIYD Recruitment 2026: Walk-in for Training Associate, Junior Assistant, Part-Time Medical Officer and Consultant Jobs
The Rajiv Gandhi National Institute of Youth Development (RGNIYD), an Institution of National Importance under the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports, has invited walk-in applications for 11 contractual posts. The jobs are at its headquarters in Sriperumbudur and its Regional Centre in Chandigarh. If you are looking for Tamil Nadu government jobs, this is a central institute job filled through a walk-in interview.
There is no online form here. You walk in on the date fixed for your post with the filled application form and your documents. The dates differ by post, from 17 to 27 November 2026, so read your own row carefully before you plan the journey. This guide from GovtJobsAlert.in puts every detail in one place.

We have reproduced them exactly as printed. Please confirm the correct reference date on the official website before you travel.
What is the Salary for RGNIYD Training Associate, Junior Assistant and Other Posts 2026?
| Post | Remuneration |
|---|---|
| Training Associate | Rs 40,000 per month |
| Junior Assistant | Rs 35,000 per month |

The Medical Officer also gets a conveyance allowance of Rs 500 per visit if the doctor lives within 5 km of the institute, and Rs 1,000 per visit beyond 5 km. Visiting days are Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
Contract Terms and Duration
| Post | Tenure |
|---|---|
| Training Associate, Medical Officer, Consultant | 11 months initially |
| Junior Assistant | Tied to the MoA with CAES; ends automatically when the MoA expires, is revoked or is ended early |
For the 11-month posts, the engagement can be extended on satisfactory performance and institutional need, but extension is not automatic. No post gives any right to permanent appointment or continuation. No contractual appointment confers a right to regular employment in RGNIYD. The Director of RGNIYD is the Competent Authority for performance, extension, renewal and termination. Think of these jobs as fixed-term engagements and decide with that in mind, especially if you are leaving another job to join.
What is the Selection Process for RGNIYD Recruitment 2026?
| Stage | Detail |
|---|---|
| Document verification | Eligibility and suitability are scrutinised at the venue |
| Interview | Held as per the procedure prescribed by the Institute |
The Institute may adopt a screening or shortlisting procedure depending on how many candidates appear, and may shortlist on higher qualifications and relevant experience. Mere attendance or meeting the minimum eligibility gives no right to selection. Only the two stages above are named in the notice. Because the Institute can shortlist on higher qualifications and relevant experience, bring every certificate that supports your claim, including extra degrees, training certificates and experience letters, rather than only the minimum papers.

The notice says candidates attend “at the respective venue”. It names the venue only for the two Training Associate lots; the Medical Officer and Consultant posts are posted at Sriperumbudur and Chandigarh respectively, and no venue is stated for the Junior Assistant walk-in. Check the website for that, and read the Institute’s notices again just before you leave home.
Conditions That Can Cost You the Job
| Condition | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Not eligible | Candidates not meeting the requirements are summarily rejected and not permitted to appear for the interview |
| Missing documents | Applications without the prescribed documents may be rejected |
| False information | Misrepresentation or false documents lead to cancellation of candidature or termination |
| Canvassing | Bringing political or other influence leads to disqualification |
| Online interview | Requests for online interview or change of venue are not entertained |
| Travel and stay | No TA/DA and no accommodation is provided |
| Second job | Selected contractual employees cannot take any secondary employment or engagement, including online work, without prior approval; violation may end the contract without notice |
| Right not to fill | RGNIYD may leave any or all posts unfilled without giving a reason |
Only Indian citizens can apply. There is no travel allowance for attending, so plan the cost of the trip, and book your stay yourself since the Institute provides none. A candidate who is found ineligible at the verification desk is not allowed to sit for the interview, so the journey is wasted; check your marks, age and experience against the table above before you set out. The decision of the Selection Committee and Competent Authority is final.
