Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) is a major open and distance learning (ODL) university in India. For 2025, IGNOU has issued multiple teaching / academic consultant recruitment notifications (e.g., consultants in Political Science, Visual Arts). These are often contractual consultant roles rather than permanent faculty, depending on the school / department.
-
The selection process generally involves shortlisting based on educational qualification and experience, followed by an interview or interaction, rather than a standard “competitive teaching test” for all posts. For many such posts, there is no written test; instead, merit + interview matter more.
-
These roles are often for a limited duration (6 months, extendable up to two years), and compensation is fixed honorarium / contract pay.

Because these are consultant / academic posts, the recruitment is more like hiring than a competitive “teacher exam.”

Communication Skills: Strong written and verbal communication.
Understanding of ODL Pedagogy: Familiarity with distance education is a plus.
