Who can apply?
Educational qualification
- For the engineer posts, a full-time B.E. or B.Tech in Civil, Electrical or Mechanical Engineering from an AICTE-approved university or institute. The notice prints the words “full time”.
- For the Architect post, a full-time B.Arch from a recognised university or institute, with valid registration with the Council of Architecture.
Experience and age limit (as on 1 October 2026)
- Site Engineer: 3 years to less than 5 years of post-qualification experience in the construction sector; upper age limit 40 years.
- Project Engineer: 5 years to less than 10 years of experience; upper age limit 45 years.
- Architect: 5 years to less than 10 years of experience; upper age limit 45 years.
Note: you may apply only for the post that matches your experience band. With 4 years of site experience you fit Site Engineer; with 6 years, Project Engineer — with 2 years, neither post will take you.
What is the salary?
To be honest — the notice prints no salary figure anywhere. It says only that the remuneration is consolidated and fixed for the duration of the engagement. Some job websites have quoted a monthly figure for these posts, but the advertisement PDF itself carries no amount, so no figure is given in this article.
How will candidates be selected?
The notice mentions no written test and no interview. WAPCOS will shortlist applications that meet the eligibility criteria, and shortlisted candidates will be informed only through their registered email or the WAPCOS website. No communication will be sent by post. Shortlisting does not guarantee selection — offer letters are issued strictly on project requirements.

Points to remember
