TheJobKart brings you the complete details of the AIIMS Kalyani Senior Resident Recruitment 2026. The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Kalyani, West Bengal, has opened applications for Senior Resident (Non-Academic) posts on a tenure basis under the Central Residency Scheme.

This is a specialist-doctor opening, not a general nursing or non-faculty recruitment. Only candidates holding a postgraduate medical degree in the relevant discipline need apply. Selection is through an interview only — there is no written examination — and the last date to submit the online application is 9 November 2026, up to 5:00 PM.

AIIMS Kalyani Senior Resident Recruitment 2026 at a Glance

A Senior Resident Notice, Not the Post Doctoral Fellowship Notice

Two AIIMS Kalyani notices close on the same date, 9 November 2026, and they should not be mixed up. This post is only about the Senior Resident (Non-Academic) recruitment, Advertisement No. 2419 /E-12015/26/26-(SR/T/JR), with 12 posts.

The other notice is the Post Doctoral Fellowship (PDF) recruitment for the January 2027 session, Advertisement No. AIIMS/Kalyani/Academic Section/2026/2337, with 35 fellowship seats (14 government-sponsored and 21 open), with interviews on 26 and 27 November 2026. That is a fellowship training programme, not this Senior Resident job, and it is not covered in this post. Candidates looking for the fellowship should follow that separate notice.

Vacancy Details

There are 12 Senior Resident (Non-Academic) vacancies, spread across five departments:

Category-wise Vacancy Details

In addition, 4% of the vacancies are horizontally reserved for Persons with Disabilities (PwD) in the OPH (OL) category, as reported. Horizontal reservation sits inside the total of 12, not in addition to it. No Unreserved or SC vacancy is shown in the category breakup reported in the summaries checked; candidates should confirm the category table in the official notification before applying.

Who Can Apply? Eligibility Criteria

Educational qualification

• For medical candidates: A postgraduate medical degree (MD/MS/DNB) or its equivalent in the respective discipline from a recognised university or institute, as provided under the Residency Scheme.
• For super-speciality candidates: DM/MCh/DNB or its equivalent in the respective discipline from a recognised university or institute, as provided under the Residency Scheme.
• All terms and conditions of the Residency Scheme apply. Where experience is prescribed, it is counted after obtaining the prescribed qualification.
• Candidates must satisfy all eligibility criteria, including age and qualification, as on the date of publication of the notification on the institute website.

Age limit

• Maximum age: not exceeding 45 years as on the date of publication of the notification on the institute website.
• Age relaxation, as reported:
  • SC/ST: 5 years
  • OBC: 3 years
  • PwD (OPH): 10 years
  • Other categories: as per Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) instructions.
• No age relaxation is available to SC/ST/OBC candidates applying for unreserved vacancies, as reported.

Other important conditions

• The appointment is on a tenure basis for a maximum period of three years, under the Central Residency Scheme.
• Candidates already in service must produce a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from their current employer at the time of the interview, as reported.
• For OBC candidates, the caste must be in the Central List of the Government of India, and the candidate must not belong to the creamy layer, as reported.
• Any misrepresentation or suppression of material facts can lead to disqualification or removal from service, and canvassing of any kind is a disqualification, as reported.

Salary and Benefits

• Pay scale as reported: Rs. 15,600–39,100 with Grade Pay Rs. 6,600 (6th CPC).
• Pay level: Level 11 of the Pay Matrix of the 7th Central Pay Commission.
• Additional benefit: Non-Practising Allowance (NPA) for medical graduates.
• All posts carry the usual allowances admissible to Central Government employees of similar status at Kalyani, West Bengal, and perks as per the rules, besides pay and NPA.

No single in-hand salary figure is printed in the summaries checked, because the actual take-home pay depends on allowances in force at the time of joining.

Important Dates

The application start date and the notification publication date were not specified in the summaries checked, so this post does not print them. Candidates should check the live notification on aiimskalyani.edu.in for those dates. The interview venue for offline candidates, as reported, is Academic Block-1, Ground Floor, Academic Section, AIIMS Kalyani, Pin 741245.

Application Fee

The fee is to be paid through NEFT in favour of the “AIIMS KALYANI INTERNAL RESOURCES ACCOUNT”, as reported. The fee, once remitted, is not refunded under any circumstances. A candidate applying for more than one post must fill a separate form and pay a separate fee for each post, as reported. The full bank account details should be taken from the official notification itself, as they were not reproduced in full in the summaries checked.

Selection Process

There is no written examination. Selection is:

1. Scrutiny of applications: Applications are screened against the eligibility criteria.
2. Personal interview: Eligible candidates appear for an interview in hybrid mode — online or offline, as chosen in the application form. The choice of mode made during application is final, as reported.
3. Merit list and waiting list: A merit list, including a waiting list, is prepared for all categories on the basis of interview performance. Vacancies arising from non-joining or resignation are offered to waiting-list candidates in merit order, as reported.

How to Apply Online: Step-by-Step

1. Visit the official AIIMS Kalyani website, aiimskalyani.edu.in, and read Advertisement No. 2419 /E-12015/26/26-(SR/T/JR) in full.
2. Open the online application portal for the Senior Resident (Non-Academic) recruitment and select the department/post for which you are eligible.
3. Fill in your personal details, educational qualifications and category carefully, making sure they match your certificates. The choice of interview mode (online or offline) made here is final.
4. Upload a scanned photograph as an image file, a scanned signature as an image file, and scanned certificates and documents as PDF files.
5. Pay the application fee through NEFT to the account named in the notification, and upload a scanned copy of the payment receipt as a PDF file.
6. Review the complete form once before submitting, especially your name, department, category and interview-mode choice.
7. Submit the form before 9 November 2026, 5:00 PM. No hard copy of the application is accepted, as reported.
8. Keep the submitted application and payment receipt safe, and carry self-attested copies of all supporting documents to the interview.

Documents to Keep Ready

• Postgraduate medical degree certificate (MD/MS/DNB) or super-speciality degree certificate (DM/MCh/DNB), as applicable, and marksheets
• MBBS degree and registration certificate, as applicable under the Residency Scheme
• Age-proof document
• Category certificate in the prescribed format, if claiming reservation (OBC candidates: Central List, non-creamy layer)
• PwBD certificate, if applicable
• No Objection Certificate from the current employer, for candidates already in service
• Experience certificates, where applicable
• Recent passport-size photograph and scanned signature
• Scanned payment receipt (PDF)
• Self-attested copies of all certificates and documents in support of age, qualification and teaching/research experience, to be carried to the interview

Original documents will be checked at the interview stage, so the details entered in the form should match them exactly.

About AIIMS Kalyani

The All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Kalyani, is an Institute of National Importance and a statutory body under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, located at Kalyani in Nadia district, West Bengal. It was set up to correct regional imbalances in tertiary healthcare and to promote self-sufficiency in medical education in the region.

AIIMS Kalyani provides tertiary healthcare services alongside medical education and research, and its Senior Resident posts sit at the centre of that work — senior residents support clinical services, teaching and departmental work under the Central Residency Scheme, on a tenure of up to three years.

Why This Recruitment Stands Out

For postgraduate doctors, this is a direct, interview-only route into a central institute, without a written examination. With only 12 posts across five departments, and General Surgery alone accounting for four of them, department choice matters: candidates should apply for the department in which their postgraduate qualification actually lies, rather than treating all 12 seats as one pool.

The hybrid interview is also worth noting. Candidates can choose online or offline mode at the application stage, but that choice is final, so it should be made deliberately — offline interviews are at the Academic Block in Kalyani, while online interview links are shared with eligible candidates before the interview dates, as reported.
