A Career in the Defence sector - career that comes with Pride

Serving the defence force of the nation is an opportunity that carries a prestige and honour with it. It is a thrilling opportunity for those who like challenges and who prefer the exciting side of life at all times. And though serving the defence comes with its own share of responsibilities, there also happens to be a lot of adventure and thrill in undertaking the tasks at hand. Quite evidently, a position in the defence force would ensure that no two days are the same.

The Indian Defence Force is one of the finest forces in the world. Filled with opportunities for youngsters from all around the country, the defence force has a spot for everyone. Candidates with diverse skill sets manage to find a meaningful and contributing spot for the service of the nation.

If you have what it takes to make the cut among the finest in the country, then exploring what’s in store for you in the Defence force is just what you need to do.

National Defence Academy (NDA) and the Naval Defence Academy (NA)

Job Prospects in Defence

The Defence force has its doors open for a wide range of skill sets. Those willing to put their skills towards the service of the nation will always find a rank for themselves in the Defence force.

Some of the most interesting prospects in the Defence forces happen to be those of the Indian Army Officer, Ground Duty Officer, Air Traffic Police, Indian Defence Officer Military Officer and Research Officer.

Avenues like Military Journalism also open up if you pursue a course in journalism after succeeding at UPSC attempts. One can even look into being a Professor of Defence or Military Studies in renowned universities across the country.

Being a research associate or a research fellow is also a possibility as the role of research in defence is vital and it helps higher authorities in defence make more accurate decisions.

Eligibility Criteria for a job in Defence

Basic eligibility criteria for job in the defence force are:

A candidate is ideally expected to have passed 10+2 examination successfully at a recognised board of the country.

At the post-graduate level, the candidate should have the Bachelor’s degree from a recognised university in the country.

At the research level, the candidate must have ideally passed the NET and should have a Master’s degree from recognised university.

Exceptional extracurricular performances alongside excellent academics would only cement your position harder in the defence force.
