JSSH Senior Resident Recruitment 2026: 70 Posts

Janakpuri Super Speciality Hospital in Delhi has opened 70 regular Senior Resident posts across 15 specialities, and the form goes by post, not online. The filled form must reach the hospital by 8 December 2026 at 4 PM. The pay is Level 11, which starts at Rs 67,700 a month plus allowances. The fee is Rs 1,000 for unreserved candidates and Rs 500 for OBC, SC, ST and EWS candidates, and you pay it at the hospital counter, not through a payment link.

That last detail is the one to plan around. There is no online form for this drive. You print the form from the notice, fill it, attach the fee receipt and your certificates, and send it by Speed Post. The hospital says it takes no responsibility for postal delay, so a form posted on the last day is a gamble.

JSSH Senior Resident Recruitment 2026 at a glance

Fifteen specialities, and where the seats sit

Anaesthesia has the most seats at 10. Gastroenterology, Nephrology and Neurology have 8 each. Radiology has 5. CTVS, GI Surgery, Neuro Surgery, Pathology and Urology have 4 each.

Microbiology has 3. Biochemistry, Cardiology, Nuclear Medicine and Oncology have 2 each. That adds up to 70.

The category split is 28 unreserved, 19 OBC, 11 SC, 5 ST and 7 EWS. Four percent of the seats are reserved for persons with disabilities on a horizontal basis, which means those seats sit inside the category totals rather than on top of them.

Pick your speciality carefully, because the form asks you to write the name of the post and the discipline on the envelope and on the first page of the form. A form that reaches the hospital without that marking risks being filed in the wrong pile.

Who can apply

For the broad specialities, Anaesthesia, Cytology, Microbiology, Nuclear Medicine, Pathology and Radiology, you need an MBBS with a postgraduate degree, diploma or DNB in the concerned speciality from a recognised university or institute. If postgraduates are not available for a seat, the notice says the hospital will consider non postgraduate candidates with three years of post MBBS experience, including at least one year in the concerned speciality, on an ad hoc basis.

For the super specialities, Cardiology, CTVS, Gastroenterology, Nephrology, Neurosurgery and Neurology, you need a postgraduate degree or DNB in Medicine or Surgery plus a DM, MCh, DrNB or Fellowship in the concerned super speciality.

Every candidate needs a valid Delhi Medical Council registration. If you do not have it yet, the notice gives you one month from joining to apply for it and three months to submit it, failing which the hospital will terminate the services. That is a hard condition, so do not treat it as a formality.

On age, the limit is 45 years for unreserved and EWS candidates in most departments, with 5 years of relaxation for SC and ST candidates and 3 years for OBC candidates. Biochemistry, Pathology and Microbiology are different. In those three departments the maximum is 50 years for all categories, under the National Medical Commission guidelines of 30 June 2025. The hospital counts age and all other qualifications as on the last date of receipt of the application, which is 8 December 2026.

The fee is paid at the hospital, not online

The fee is Rs 1,000 for unreserved candidates and Rs 500 for OBC, SC, ST and EWS candidates. Persons with disabilities pay nothing. Pay the fee through the POS machine, by credit or debit card only, at the Accounts Branch in Room 104 of the hospital.

That means a trip to the hospital before you post the form, since the fee cannot be paid from home. Carry a card, since cash will not work at that counter. Keep the receipt.

Attach the fee receipt and self attested copies of your certificates to the application. The notice also refers to an online transaction receipt in one place, which reads oddly next to the POS machine instruction. The POS machine is what the fee paragraph itself prescribes, so pay there and attach what it gives you.

How to apply on paper

Download the notice from the recruitment page on jsshs.org. The notice itself carries the application form on pages 6 to 10. Fill it in the prescribed format, attach the fee receipt and self attested copies of your date of birth proof, mark sheets, degree, registration and category certificates, and send it by Speed Post to The Director, Administrative Block, 1st Floor, Janakpuri Super Speciality Hospital, C-2B, Janakpuri, New Delhi 110058.

The form must reach the hospital on or before 8 December 2026 at 4 PM. If the hospital declares that day a holiday, the next working day counts as the last date. The hospital will not consider applications received after the cut off.

You can also submit the form directly at the hospital. The timings are 10 AM to 4 PM from Monday to Friday and 10 AM to 1 PM on Saturday. Sunday and gazetted holidays are closed. Write the name of the post and the discipline legibly on the envelope and on the first page of the form.

Interview on 22 December

A board set up by the competent authority will interview the candidates. The notice says the hospital may also hold a screening written test if required. The interview takes place on 22 December 2026, a Tuesday, at 10:30 AM in the Board Room, MS Office, First Floor, JSSH.

The hospital will put up the list of shortlisted candidates on jsshs.org under Career and Opportunities and on the notice board of the Administrative Block before the interview date. Check the site rather than waiting for a letter.

The tenure is one year to start, extendable year by year up to three years of residency, subject to satisfactory performance and a fresh interview. This is a regular post, not the 89 day ad hoc engagement the hospital also runs, and that distinction is the whole point of this notice.

Doctors looking at other medical openings this month can also see the AFMS SSC Medical Officer Recruitment 2026 post on this site, which covers 120 posts for MBBS doctors with the form open 9 to 18 November, and the ESIC Medical Officer Recruitment 2026 post, which covers 24 Ayurveda and Homeopathy posts with the form open 16 November to 15 December.
