Work Culture & Environment

Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

Appointees will work in the Department of Microbiology's Viral Research & Diagnostic Laboratory (VRDL) at AIIMS Kalyani, an apex tertiary hospital and central statutory institute under MoHFW. Duties involve handling infectious clinical diagnostic samples, operating biosafety level laboratory suites, executing diagnostic RT-PCR assays, serology (ELISA), viral load testing, outbreak surveillance, and maintaining NABL accreditation documentation. Strict adherence to institutional bio-risk safety guidelines and mandatory personal vaccination protocols applies.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.

Stationed on-campus at NH-34 Connector, Basantapur, Saguna, Kalyani, Nadia, West Bengal - 741245. Contract is initially for 6 months, extendable based on annual performance review and VRDL project sanction from DHR/ICMR until project completion. No residential hostel/accommodation is provided on campus.

Career & Promotion Ladder

Promotion timeline, seniority ladder, pay grade scaling.

Purely temporary and contractual project engagement with no provision for regularization or absorption into permanent AIIMS faculty or technical cadres. However, documented experience in a DHR-sponsored VRDL facility at an AIIMS institute provides recognized credentials for permanent Group A/B laboratory positions in ICMR, NCDC, central government health establishments, and state medical colleges.
Crucial Application Warnings & Eligibility Traps

Avoid common application rejection triggers, photo/signature guidelines, and certificate validity windows.

  • Applications must strictly be sent via email to [email protected] with all qualification, DOB, and experience certificates merged into a single PDF in the prescribed order; hard copies sent by post or emails received after 16/09/2026 (11:59 PM) will be summarily rejected.
  • Selected candidates must strictly abide by personal vaccination requirements specified by the Principal Investigator of VRDL unless an exclusive clinical waiver is validated by the Medical Board at AIIMS Kalyani.
  • No individual call letters or interview emails will be dispatched; applicants are responsible for monitoring https://aiimskalyani.edu.in for the shortlist, interview schedule, and venue updates.
  • The appointment carries a 30-day termination notice period on either side (or salary in lieu thereof), and will automatically terminate if project funding is withdrawn by DHR.
