Interview for the Post of Assistant Librarian in IGNTU, Amarkantak

Indira Gandhi National Tribal University (IGNTU) AMARKANTAK, (Madhya Pradesh) has shortlisted 169 candidates for interview for the 3 posts of Assistant Librarians in the pay band of PB3+AGP 6000/- to be held on 21-22 June 2016.

Some questions came in my mind which I would like to share with all of you.

  1. Is it possible to select the best suitable among 169 candidates only on the basis of Interview?
  2. Is there any policy/rule that how many candidates should be called for interview against one post? Generally, it is 8-10 candidates against one post.

In last few years, trend has been started to call any number of candidates against one post and this is happening mostly in academic institutions and central universities. It seems that obvious motto is to select the favourable candidate on the basis of interview only.

Dear Sir,

What to say, either positive or negative? I am getting clues to talk in the both, positive and negative sides. 

Thank you. 

This is waste of time for candidates as well as for university administration

Dear sir,

You are correct, because last few years most of the Government Institutes calling more candidates, but Normally one post 8-10 candidates only, then only they can select suitable candidate for their organization, otherwise very difficult, i am not criticize or against for calling more candidates,

my suggestions:

1.Should follow strictly API Score for scrutinize can select 8-10 candidates for per post, otherwise very difficult sir, few Central Universities clearly has given earlier as per API Score for scrutinize applications and displayed their website sir,

this is for your kind information sir, because i also selected this list Indira Gandhi National Tribal University (IGNTU) AMARKANTAK, (Madhya Pradesh) my interview on 22.06.16

Is university ne advertisement 5-6 years tak nikala pahali ya doosari bar form phil karne ke baad bhi mujhe call nahi aaya kya yah thik hai ki last time fill karne vale candidates ko hi call kiya jaye kya university ne mere DD ka use nahi kiya hoga

With reference to above answers, I would like to evaluate this matter in two aspects; positive and negative as I have said in the previous reply.

Positive points are that a candidate will have probability, chance to be selected. Fresher will come to know the pattern of the interview. University will have more options to get a candidate, suitable for the existing setup. The moral of the candidates will remain higher because they got notified that they have eligibility for the said/applied post. 

Negative points may be extracted are as follows, some are from previous replies; Waste of time, resources and money of both, university and candidates at the individual level. Lack of fixed shortlisting criteria. Lack of competencies to answer the questions of a rejected candidate in future. 


Actually, these negative points are not considerable. It is a good practice to give value to an applicant and his/her application form who shown his/her interest and got notified by the administration that he/she is eligible for the said/applied post. The candidate will get the chance to appear in the interview where if he/she perform well then he/she can get the job. Calling/shortlisting/rejecting a candidate by his/her application form and/or only on the documentary evidence seems impractical. 

Thank you. 

I didn't received any call letter any list is there
