Shillong Radiotherapy Eligibility Criteria
Radiotherapy Technician (8 posts)
You need one of these two qualifications:
- A B.Sc. in Radiotherapy Technology with at least 50% marks, from a recognised institution
- Higher Secondary (10+2) in Science from a recognised board or institution, plus a Diploma in Radiotherapy Technology from a recognised institution
The notice sets the 50% marks condition only for the B.Sc. route. It doesn’t say whether it expects a minimum for the diploma route.
Medical Physicist-cum-Radiation Safety Officer (1 post)
You need one of these degrees:
- An M.Sc. in Medical Physics or Radiological Physics, or an equivalent, from a recognised university
- An M.Sc. in Physics from a recognised university, plus a Postgraduate Diploma or Degree in Radiological or Medical Physics from a recognised university
You also need an approval or certificate from the competent authority to function as a Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) in Radiotherapy.
Medical Physicist (1 post)
The degree is the same as for the post above: an M.Sc. in Medical Physics or Radiological Physics (or equivalent), or an M.Sc. in Physics with a Postgraduate Diploma or Degree in Radiological or Medical Physics. In addition, you must:
- have completed at least 12 months of internship in a recognised, well-equipped Radiation Therapy department, and
- hold an AERB e-LORA registration, issued through the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board’s system
Application Fee
The Radiotherapy Technician notice charges a fee, which you pay online after you submit your application:
| Category | Fee |
|---|---|
| General candidates | ₹500 |
| ST / SC candidates | ₹250 |
One part of the notice writes this as “SC/ST/OST candidates,” and the table writes it as “ST/SC Category.” The Physicist notice mentions no fee at all. Ask the Directorate whether it expects one, and pay only on the official portal.
Selection Process
- The competent authority pre-screens the applications.
- Candidates whose documents are in order are shortlisted, and the list goes up on the government website, meghealth.gov.in.
- Shortlisted candidates appear before the Interviewing Committee for the walk-in interview.
The selection is purely on the merit of the interview, with preference for candidates who are domiciles of Meghalaya. For the Technician post, the Directorate calls only 24 candidates, three times the number of posts, so pre-screening matters. Appearing on the list of successful candidates doesn’t guarantee an appointment, because final selection depends on verification of all your original documents at the interview. The Directorate declares results shortly after it validates the marks, on its website and in the local newspaper.

The Physicist notice doesn’t mention the online application. The Technician notice does, so it’s unclear whether the Physicists must also apply online. Email dhsmimeghalaya@gmail.com to confirm, and do it before 14 November, just in case.
If you need to update your CV, our Free Resume Builder can help.
Documents to Bring in Original
Bring the originals and self-attested photocopies of these on the day:

Important Instructions
- The engagement is purely contractual and gives you no right or claim to a regular appointment.
- Selected candidates must follow the Terms of Reference (ToR) set by the Directorate.
- Check that you’re eligible before you apply. If you give wrong information, make a false declaration or hide something, the Directorate can debar you from all its examinations and reject your candidature outright.
- The notices say applicants must be citizens of India, and they give preference to Meghalaya domicile and local candidates.
- For queries, email dhsmimeghalaya@gmail.com during office hours.
How to Prepare for the Walk-In Interview
The notices don’t describe the interview, so these tips are general. Match them to your own post:
- Radiotherapy Technician: revise the basics you learned in your course, such as how radiotherapy machines work, how you position and set up a patient, and the safety steps around radiation. Be ready to describe any clinical training or internship.
- Medical Physicist and RSO: go through radiation physics, dosimetry, quality assurance of treatment machines, and the rules of the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board (AERB). Know what your RSO approval and e-LORA registration cover.
- Prepare real examples. Describe what you did during your 12-month internship or your earlier work, and what equipment you used.
- Know the department. Read a little about cancer care and radiotherapy services, and say why you want to work at Civil Hospital, Shillong.
- Organise your documents. Keep the originals and photocopies in order, in the sequence of the list above, and put your CV on top.
- Reach early. The Physicists register between 9 and 10 AM, so plan your travel to Laitumkhrah.
Good preparation helps you answer clearly, but the Interviewing Committee decides the result, and nobody can promise you a post.

What the Notices Don’t Say
They don’t give the contract period, a phone number, the date on which the Directorate counts your age, an application fee for the Physicist posts, or the date the shortlist goes up. They also give two different interview times, 10:00 AM for the Physicists and 12 noon for the Technicians, so confirm yours. Check the registration room for the Technician post too, because only the Physicist notice names Room 402.
