If you’re living around Golaghat and have been looking for a way into a government-backed role, you might want to clear your schedule for the first week of February.
The District Commissioner’s office just put out a call for people to join the Mission Shakti (Shakti Sadan) project. These aren’t permanent "pensionable" jobs—they are contractual—but for anyone looking to get their foot in the door with the Department of Women & Child Development, this is a pretty significant opening.
Here’s the lowdown on what’s actually happening and how you can actually get hired without getting tripped up by the paperwork.
What roles are they actually hiring for?
They have four specific spots to fill, and they aren't looking for freshers here. They want people who have already spent a few years in the field.
- Psycho-social Counsellor (Women Only): If you’ve got a degree in Psychology or even Neuroscience and you’ve spent at least three years working in women’s welfare—whether that was with an NGO or a private health clinic—this is the big one. It pays ₹25,000. Interview is on Feb 3rd.
- Office Assistant: This isn't just about filing papers; you’ll be handling web reporting and video calls for the district. You’ll need a computer diploma and a degree. It pays ₹20,000. Interview is on Feb 4th.
- Multi-Purpose Staff / Cook: As long as you’ve passed your HSLC and know your way around a kitchen or general maintenance work, you’re in the running. It pays ₹14,000. Interview is on Feb 3rd.
- Security Guard: They really want retired military or para-military personnel here—someone who knows the drill. Pay is ₹12,000. Interview is on Feb 4th.
Let’s talk about the "Standard Form"
If you’ve applied for jobs in Assam before, you know the drill, but it’s worth repeating: you need the Standard Form of Application. Don’t try to be fancy with a printed CV you designed online. Get the physical form from a bookshop, fill it out by hand, and make sure your handwriting is legible.
Interview Venue: Office of the District Social Welfare Officer, Golaghat (Gulampatty), right by the Sati Sadhini Kalakshetra.
Parking can be a bit of a pain around Gulampatty, so plan to get there well before the 10:00 AM start time.
The "Hidden" Requirements (Don't miss these)
It’s easy to look at the salary and forget the fine print. Before you go, double-check these three things:
- Residency: You must be a permanent resident of Assam.
- Age: You need to be between 21 and 40 (as of Jan 1, 2025). If you’re SC, ST, or PWD, you do get a 5 to 10-year buffer, but you'll need your certificates ready.
- The Document Kit: Don't just show up with your originals. They want a "Xerox" set of everything:
- Two recent passport photos.
- HSLC Admit card (for age proof).
- Every marksheet from Class 10 up to your highest degree.
- The Experience Certificate: This is dealbreaker. If the job asks for 3 years of experience, you need a signed paper from your previous boss proving it.

Final Reality Check
Since this is a "Walk-in Interview," expect a crowd. It can be a long day of waiting in hallways, so bring a bottle of water and some patience. It's a solid opportunity to get some government experience on your resume, even if it is a temporary contract.
Just get your papers in order this week so you aren't scrambling at the last minute. Good luck!
