Brief instructions for Application/Document Verification (DV) including dates, venue, and documents required.

Caveats: provisional shortlisting — final appointment depends on document verification and medical fitness.

Selection formula: How were candidates shortlisted?

For the 2025–26 recruitment cycle AAI used a mix of:

GATE scores (for engineering streams) — GATE 2023/2024/2025 marks were used to compile merit for Civil & Electrical Junior Executive posts.

Exam score / cutoffs and reservation rules as per the advertisement for other disciplines (ATC, Fire, Official Language, etc.). Check the specific advt. number for the exact method used for each post.

Expected cutoffs & how to interpret them

AAI typically does not publish a single universal cutoff — cutoffs vary by:

Discipline (Civil/Electrical vs ATC vs Fire Services),

Category (UR/SC/ST/OBC/EWS), and

Number of vacancies and GATE score distribution.

Based on the shortlisting you can infer the rough cutoff range by noting the lowest GATE score (or the last roll number) on the shortlist for your category — treat that as indicative, not definitive. Third-party job portals and news sites also publish estimated cutoffs soon after the merit lists are out.

If your name/roll number is on the shortlist — immediate checklist

Download and print the shortlist PDF and the advertisement.

Check DV schedule and venue details in the notification.

Prepare originals + self-attested copies of all required documents: degree, GATE scorecard (if applicable), caste/POI certificates, experience proofs, ID proof, certificates for age relaxation (if any), etc.

Bring two passport photos and any other items listed in the DV instructions.

Arrive early on the DV date and follow COVID/safety guidelines if still indicated.

Keep scanned copies handy for any portal uploads.
