Hello Aspirant,

Hope you are doing well.

Ph.D. or equivalent in relevant field with first class or similar qualification is the bare minimum requirement for all faculty jobs (in terms of grades, etc.). Applicants must have received a first-class or 60 percent on their master's degree or equivalent qualifying examinations, as well as a very strong academic record throughout their undergraduate and graduate studies.

In addition, for the following reasons:

Having a minimum of ten years of teaching/research/industrial experience, of which at least four years should have been at the level of Associate Professor in IITs, IIMs, IISc Bangalore, NITIE Mumbai, and IISERs, or at an equivalent level in any other Indian or foreign institution/institutions of comparable standards, is required for the position of Professor.

As an Associate Professor, you must have a minimum of 6 years of teaching/research/industrial experience, with at least 3 of those years being at the Assistant Professor or equivalent level.

Assistant Professor: A minimum of three years of teaching, research, or industry experience is required for this position (excluding however the experience gained while pursuing Ph.D). Candidates who have received their Ph.D. from prestigious institutions, on the other hand, may be exempt from the three-year work experience requirement on a case-by-case basis, depending on their academic qualifications. Candidates may be given a one-year contract job as a Visiting Assistant Professor or a Lecturer position based on their qualifications and experience.

Hope you got the answer to your question. Incase of any queries, feel free to question. Have a great day!
