Even well-prepared candidates often make avoidable errors. Here are the most common pitfalls specific to this recruitment: Applying in multiple trades: Only one application per candidate is allowed. If you apply for more than one trade, all older applications will be rejected and only the latest will count - so choose your trade carefully before applying. Submitting without all documents: Applications that are incomplete are rejected without any reason being assigned. Double-check that all copies are enclosed before posting. Writing name incorrectly: Your name in the application must exactly match your matriculation certificate. Any mismatch can lead to rejection at the document verification stage. Applying with an old degree: If your degree or diploma is more than 5 years old as of the joining date, you are ineligible. Do not apply if this applies to you. Result-awaited candidates applying: The notification clearly states result-awaited candidates must not apply. Your result must be declared and certificate issued before the closing date. Not checking BOAT/NATS registration: If you are already registered under BOAT or NATS and have undergone apprenticeship training, you cannot apply again under this scheme. Sending applications through email or in person: Only postal applications on the prescribed format are accepted. Any other mode will be rejected.
