Work Culture & Environment

Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

Operating under the Office of the Deputy Director, Women and Child Development Department, Room No. C-17, 1st Floor, District Administrative Complex, Chittapur Road, Yadgir. The District Resource Person (DRP) functions as a crucial technical and pedagogical anchor for Anganwadi centres across Yadgir district. Duties involve extensive field visits across taluks and rural pockets, conducting on-site mentoring for Anganwadi supervisors and workers, organizing preschool activity workshops, and coordinating with Zilla Panchayat officials. The work requires high field mobility, fluency in regional Kannada dialects, and active community outreach.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.

Initial appointment is strictly on an honorarium/contractual basis for a period of 11 months under the Strengthening of Pre-School Education scheme. Tenure may be extended based on satisfactory performance appraisal and government scheme sanction. The post carries no claim for regularization, absorption, or permanent state government service.

Career & Promotion Ladder

Promotion timeline, seniority ladder, pay grade scaling.

Being a contractual project-linked position (11 months), there is no statutory cadre hierarchy or promotional ladder within Karnataka Civil Services. However, substantial field experience as a District Resource Person under the Department of Women and Child Development provides significant credentials for higher technical consultancy roles, UNICEF/NGO child protection programs, and senior consultant positions under POSHAN Abhiyaan and Samagra Shiksha.
