The degree must come from a UGC recognised Indian University, a UGC recognised Indian Deemed University or an AICTE-approved course.
| Department | Required | Desirable |

Experience counts only when it is direct work experience, including fixed-term employment in an organisation. Internship training does not count. Candidates need good knowledge of MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint, good communication and writing skills, and sincerity and commitment to work.
Candidates enter the percentage of marks to two decimal places. Where a university awards only CGPA or OGPA, the candidate converts it using the university’s norms. The university’s conversion certificate is needed at document verification if KVIC asks for it. Serving government or PSU officials join only after their parent organisation relieves them.
Selection Process
Selection for the KVIC Young Professional Mumbai posts has three steps.
- KVIC shortlists candidates on qualification and experience.
- Shortlisted candidates appear for a personal interview before the Selection Committee during November 2026.
- KVIC offers a contractual engagement based on qualification, experience and interview performance.
Candidates must carry one original photo ID (Voter ID, driving licence, PAN card, passport or Aadhaar card), a photocopy of it and a printed copy of the online application form. A candidate without these is not allowed to sit the interview. The name in the application must match the photo ID exactly. KVIC pays no TA/DA for attending the interview.

Should you apply?
The KVIC Young Professional Mumbai engagement suits postgraduate candidates below 27 years who want fixed-term work with a statutory body under the MSME ministry. Khadi posts suit textile postgraduates, and Audit and Accounts posts suit commerce and finance graduates. Extension for a further two years depends on performance appraisal.
It does not suit candidates who want a permanent job, since the notice gives no claim on regularisation or absorption. The pay is fixed, with no dearness allowance or medical reimbursement, and no extra pay for long hours. Either side can end the contract with one month’s notice.
Competition for the KVIC Young Professional Mumbai posts is likely to be high, because most departments need only a postgraduate degree in a relevant field and shortlisting decides who gets an interview.
