The recruitment drive spans several technical and supporting roles across ISRO's numerous centres spread across the country, including facilities in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Thiruvananthapuram, Sriharikota, and Ahmedabad. Each position carries its own specific eligibility requirements based on the educational qualification and relevant trade experience.
