The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has said there are 400 apprenticeship positions for graduates at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre SHAR in Sriharikota. This hiring process is for people who have done engineering, -engineering diploma, ITI and vocational courses. People will be chosen based on their performance and checking of their documents. There will not be a written test as part of the selection process.

The apprenticeship program has six types: Engineering Graduate Apprentice, Non-Engineering Graduate Apprentice, Technician Apprentice Diploma in Commercial and Computer Practice Trade Apprentice and Vocational Apprentice. Out of the 400 jobs 180 are, for Trade Apprentices. There are 60 vacancies each, for Non-Engineering Graduate Apprentices and DCCP candidates. Engineering Graduate Apprentices will get 50 spots Technician Apprentices will get 35 and Vocational Apprentices will get 15.

The training programme will last for 12 months. This is a chance for freshers to gain hands-on experience at a leading space research centre.

Candidates who hold a B.E. Or B.Tech degree or who have graduate qualifications diplomas, ITI certificates or recognised qualifications can apply. The choice of apprenticeship category determines which Candidates are eligible. Graduate and diploma Candidates must have passed their qualifying examination in the year 2022 or later. Must satisfy the eligibility rules that are written down. Every apprenticeship category offers a stipend that falls between ₹9,600 and ₹12,300.

The online application process starts on November 6 2026. Candidates may submit their applications until November 26 2026. Each Candidate must first register via the National Apprenticeship Training Scheme, known as NATS or via the National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme, known as NAPS if that is the scheme for them. After they register Candidates must finish the application through UMANG. It is an idea for Candidates to read the official notification because that document gives the full eligibility rules lists the vacancies in each category and explains how to apply.

This recruitment gives freshers a chance to get work experience at a well known space research centre.. The apprenticeship is only a training job and it does not promise a permanent job, at ISRO. I hope this helps you decide whether to apply.
