About This Recruitment

Odisha Adarsha Vidyalaya Garudabasa is a CBSE-affiliated Government school under the School and Mass Education Department, Government of Odisha, located in Betnoti block, Mayurbhanj district. It runs both a Boys’ Hostel and a KGBV Type-IV Girls’ Hostel for its residential students, so it has issued two separate advertisements on the same date to fill support staff posts in each. This recruitment follows the same district-level, local-preference hiring approach used across other Odisha Adarsha Vidyalaya hostels.

Understanding the Duties of Each Post

The Warden in either hostel lives on campus and looks after the overall wellbeing, discipline and daily schedule of the students staying there. In the Boys’ Hostel, the Head Cook manages the kitchen and plans meals, while the Assistant Cooks support the kitchen work under the Head Cook. The Chowkidar-cum-Sweeper handles night security and keeps the hostel and its surroundings clean. In the Girls’ Hostel, the Warden is the only support staff post advertised here, and carries the added responsibility of a residential KGBV Type-IV facility for girl students.

What is a KGBV Type-IV Girls’ Hostel

KGBV stands for Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya, a scheme meant to support the education of girls from disadvantaged backgrounds by providing them residential facilities near their school. A Type-IV KGBV hostel is attached to a senior secondary school and houses girl students studying up to higher classes. The Warden appointed here is responsible for the safety, discipline and daily routine of the girl students living in this hostel, which is why the post carries a higher monthly remuneration than the equivalent Warden post at the Boys’ Hostel.

How the Local Preference System Works

OAV Garudabasa, like other Odisha Adarsha Vidyalayas, follows a step-by-step process when selecting support staff for both hostels. It first tries to hire from within Betnoti block. If it cannot find eligible candidates there, it opens the search to nearby blocks, but always staying within Mayurbhanj district. No candidate from outside the district can be recruited against these posts. This approach is meant to create local employment near the school and ensure the support staff understand the local community and language well.

Documents You Will Need

Before applying for either post, candidates should prepare self-attested copies of their HSC certificate and mark sheet, +2 certificate if applicable, B.A./B.Sc. certificate for the Warden posts, caste certificate, Aadhaar card, residential certificate, any hostel management experience certificate, and two recent passport-size photographs. Since applications are accepted only by post, sending the documents early gives enough buffer time before the 11 September 2026 deadline.

A Steady Option for Local Job Seekers

For people living in Betnoti block, these two recruitments together offer six different openings close to home. The Chowkidar-cum-Sweeper and Assistant Cook posts only need HSC pass or basic cooking ability, which makes them accessible to a wide range of local candidates. The two Warden posts pay the most and need a college degree along with hostel management experience, making them suitable for someone with a bit more experience, or a retired teacher looking for continued work, whether male or female depending on the hostel.
