The short answer

Two Project Multi Skilled Worker Level 3 positions at IIT Kanpur require hard-copy applications received by 28 October 2026 at 5PM.

Original notice

Advertisement P.Rect./R&D/2026/208 was posted 13 October according to the official administrative-staff index. It concerns the DRDO Industry-Academia Centre of Excellence. This is an existing open project advertisement checked on 16 October, not a notice newly issued today.

Qualification and work

The stated minimum qualification is Class 10 passed. A separate desirable section lists education-and-experience combinations; it should not be mistaken for an unrestricted alternative to the minimum requirement. Duties include office upkeep, equipment cleaning, filing and support tasks, with laboratory or research-environment experience preferred.

Dates and application

The salary is ₹18,000 plus HRA with 3% annual increment. The position is temporary, initially one year with the stated provision for two extensions or project end. Send a cover letter, relevant certificates and reference to Dr Kantesh Balani, Faculty Building Room 413, Materials Science and Engineering, IIT Kanpur 208016. Receipt must be by 28 October 5PM. No fee, age limit, opening hour or subsequent correction was verified.

Practical preparation

Our recommendation is to describe the support work you can actually demonstrate, such as maintaining records, handling office equipment or assisting a laboratory. Do not convert an informal family responsibility into claimed institutional experience. Keep the minimum qualification and any desirable experience evidence separately labelled so neither is lost in a generic cover letter.

Before submitting

The two advertised positions do not guarantee an interview or permanent government employment. Read the full original duties before applying, consider the temporary term, and allow time for hard-copy delivery. Retain a complete copy and use the recruitment reference when checking later instructions. An application that arrives after the receipt deadline is different from one posted before it; plan around the condition the authority actually states.
