It has followed the news of a relatively large deficit of staff in the Department of Space, and the 336 permanent positions now being advertised are just a part of that deficit. In the recent few months, ISRO has also issued individual calls for TAs, PAs, and research fellows to various centres, indicating that the recruitment seems to be on the rise instead of the trough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For candidates, it&#8217;s a positive indicator, as it isn&#8217;t a one-time thing, but it&#8217;s also crucial to apply for the notification that suits them, as it is more likely to be a current one and less likely to be postponed to some future round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"a-word-of-caution-before-you-apply\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Word_of_Caution_Before_You_Apply\"><\/span><strong>A Word of Caution Before You Apply<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are usually unofficial sites and emails advertising \u201cguaranteed selection\u201d or \u201cpaid assured seat\u201d services in a recruitment drive this size. It is normal to come across unofficial websites, emails offering shortcuts, or guaranteed selection, or paid \u2018assured seat\u2019 services in a recruitment like this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is not a legitimate way to do it. The applications of <strong>ISRO Recruitment 2026<\/strong> will be accepted only through the official website isro.gov.in, and the selection for all three of these notifications will be made purely based on the criteria mentioned in the official notification, viz. merit, GATE score, or skill\/written test as applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"fa-qs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list\">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1785758996161\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Total_number_of_vacancies_in_ISRO_Recruitment_2026\"><\/span>1.
