Frequently Asked Questions
Can a candidate apply for more than one engagement?
SAIL advises candidates to apply for only one engagement, since all correspondence and the admit card or call letter are tied to a single application.
Is this a permanent government job?
No. The engagement is purely temporary, on a contract for service basis, and does not create any right to regular appointment or an employer-employee relationship.
