The Delhi Jal Board (DJB), the principal water supply and sanitation authority of the National Capital Territory, has initiated a fresh recruitment process to fill 100 vacancies under the Junior Engineer cadre. The selection will be conducted through the National Institute of Construction Management and Research (NITCON), which serves as the recruiting agency for this cycle.
According to official notifications, the recruitment drive encompasses a range of engineering specializations, typically including Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, and Instrumentation & Control Engineering — disciplines that align with DJB's core operations in water distribution, sewage treatment, pipeline infrastructure, and pumping station management. Candidates holding a bachelor's degree in the respective engineering discipline from a recognized university are eligible to apply.
The application process is entirely online. Prospective applicants must register on the dedicated recruitment portal maintained by NITCON, fill in the required personal and academic details, upload the necessary documents such as photographs, signatures, and educational certificates, and pay the prescribed application fee. A confirmation email or SMS is typically generated upon successful submission, and candidates are advised to retain this for future reference.
The age limit for general category candidates stands at 30 years as per standard Delhi government norms, with age relaxations applicable for reserved categories in line with government regulations. The selection process is expected to involve a written examination administered by NITCON, followed by document verification for shortlisted candidates.
Junior Engineers in the Delhi Jal Board play a critical role in overseeing water supply networks, managing wastewater treatment facilities, and supervising maintenance and expansion projects across the capital. The position carries significant responsibility in ensuring the seamless delivery of potable water to millions of residents in Delhi.
Candidates who have missed earlier recruitment cycles or are seeking stable government employment in the engineering sector are encouraged to apply before the deadline expires.
