District Health Society Thoothukudi Recruitment 2026: 7 Counsellor Vacancies

This role is ideal for individuals holding a graduate degree in social sciences (Psychology, Social Work, Sociology, Anthropology, Human Development) or a Diploma in Nursing with significant experience in HIV/AIDS counseling. It is particularly suitable for those with a commitment to public health and an interest in temporary, project-based government engagement. Candidates who are People Living with HIV (PLHIV) and meet the revised experience criteria are strongly encouraged to apply.

Candidates seeking permanent government employment or long-term career stability should not apply, as this is a purely temporary, contract-based position. Those without the specified educational qualifications or the relevant experience in HIV/AIDS care will not be considered. Individuals not comfortable with a district-level posting in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, should also reconsider.

This position, while temporary, offers valuable experience within a state-level public health framework, specifically contributing to critical HIV/AIDS prevention and control initiatives under the National Health Program. It provides an opportunity to work within a government-affiliated body (District Health Society). However, given its contractual nature, it does not offer the same long-term career security or growth opportunities as permanent government roles.
