The Allahabad University (AU) on Friday started the online application process for filling 412 non-teaching vacant posts at the central university. Candidates can fill in the form by visiting the university website www.allduniv.ac.in, say university officials. The last date for submitting the online application form is October 23. The posts on offer include 15 posts of Group A, 36 of Group B and maximum 361 posts of Group C, they add.
As per the advertisement released by the AU administration, maximum 90 posts are of multi-tasking staff for which class 10 pass candidates up to 30 years of age can apply. For the 64 posts of library attendant, class 12 pass candidates, who have completed a diploma or a certificate course in library science, are eligible.
There are also 49 posts of junior office attendants, 30 posts of laboratory assistants and 47 posts of laboratory attendants. AU has not recruited employees in Group A category for a long time. Due to this, the work of the university is getting affected. The executive council of AU had decided to undertake recruitment against 632 posts.
But in the advertisement released on Friday, the number of posts came down to 412. AU public relations officer Jaya Kapoor said the number of posts had been reduced due to promotion of employees, adjustment of Institute of Correspondence Courses and Continuing Education (ICC&CE) staff and compassionate appointment etc.
“There has been a reduction in the advertised posts by 220 as compared to the approved 632 posts. Therefore, recruitment would be done only for 412 posts,” she added.
