Since the deadline is today, would you like me to search for the specific Google Form link for this PGIMER Research Associate application? The search results confirm the details of the Research Associate III position at PGIMER, including the last date to apply being November 20, 2025, by 5:00 PM, and that applications must be submitted via an online Google Form.

Unfortunately, the search results provide links to third-party job alert sites and the general PGIMER vacancies page, but none of the visible snippets contain the direct Google Form link itself. The link is usually embedded within the official notification PDF, which is not directly accessible here.

Given the time-sensitive nature (the deadline is today, November 20, 2025), I recommend the following steps to find the link quickly:

Visit the official PGIMER website: Go to pgimer.edu.in.
Navigate to the Vacancies/Recruitment section: Look for recent advertisements or notices posted by the Department of Community Medicine and School of Public Health. The notice is likely titled something similar to “Applications are invited for the post of Research Associate-III on project basis…”
Locate the PDF or Application Link: The official PDF for this specific post (Research Associate-III) should contain the direct link to the Google Form.
