Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) is hiring 292 apprentices at its Barauni Refinery in Begusarai, Bihar, across four trades and disciplines. Eligible candidates usually hold a B.Sc in Maths, Physics, Chemistry or Industrial Chemistry, or a relevant engineering diploma. Applications close on 6 December 2026. Start the NAPS or NATS registration early, because the portal profile must be correct before you apply.

Who Should Apply for IOCL Barauni Apprentice 2026

Candidates with a regular full-time B.Sc in the listed subjects (codes 101 and 103) or a regular full-time relevant diploma (codes 105 and 107) who are within the age limit may fit; those with BE/B.Tech or other higher professional degrees, or with one year or more of job experience after qualifying, are not eligible.

The exact qualification, age and other conditions are under Eligibility Criteria.

Watch Out Before You Apply

  • Apply for only one trade or discipline, because applying for more than one leads to rejection.
  • Complete both Step I (NAPS/NATS portal) and Step II (Microsoft Form); the notice says both are compulsory.
  • Keep the same email ID and mobile number in both steps, and keep them active for the full apprenticeship period.
  • Bring original documents for verification, including one Photo ID such as Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID, Driving Licence or Passport.
  • If your degree or diploma uses CGPA, OGPA or letter grades, get a conversion certificate from your institute, or your candidature will not be considered.
