Associate

This role is ideal for fresh graduates or those with up to 2 years of experience in Civil Engineering, particularly those from top-ranked IITs/NITs or equivalent institutions. Candidates must hold domicile in one of the specified States/UTs where NHIDCL operates. The position is well-suited for individuals seeking contractual engagement in infrastructure development within challenging terrains like the North-eastern Region, Hilly States, and Border Areas, with a focus on contributing to local talent development.

Candidates who do not possess a Civil Engineering degree (or equivalent from a top 100 NIRF ranked institution), exceed the age limit of 30 years as of July 6, 2026, or lack domicile in the specified States/UTs (except for Andaman & Nicobar Islands under certain conditions) should not apply. Those seeking permanent government employment rather than a consultancy-based contractual role will find this unsuitable.

Working with NHIDCL, a Central Government Public Sector Undertaking under the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways, offers significant prestige and exposure in national infrastructure development. While the engagement is contractual, it provides valuable experience in critical projects and potential for tenure extension based on performance. The scheme aims for long-term capacity building, offering good career prospects within the public sector consultancy domain for eligible candidates.
