AFMS SSC Medical Officer Recruitment 2026: 120 Posts
The Story in Brief
The Armed Forces Medical Services (AFMS) has announced 120 Medical Officer posts under the Short Service Commission, with 90 vacancies for male and 30 for female candidates. The short notice was released on 31 October. Eligible MBBS graduates can apply online at join.afms.gov.in from 9 November to 18 November 2026.
The detailed notification will be published on 7 November in Employment News and on the official website. Interviews are tentatively scheduled for December 2026 in Delhi. Candidates must be below 30 years for MBBS holders or below 35 for postgraduate degree holders, with age calculated as of 31 December 2026.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The 120 posts are fewer than typical AFMS batches, making competition tighter. With only an 18-day window from notification to deadline, applicants who wait for the detailed notice on 7 November will have just eleven days to prepare documents. The December interview in Delhi leaves no room for rescheduling for candidates outside the capital. The short notice does not specify category-wise or reservation breakdowns, forcing candidates to wait until 7 November to assess their eligibility. Until then, the only firm number is the 90:30 male-female split.
