Sending experience certificates without duration/pay details - Certificates must clearly state start date, end date, nature of duties, and pay. Vague letters will not be counted. Listing fewer than 10 state preferences - The notification specifically advises candidates to fill at least 10 options. Tampered or altered documents - Any forgery or alteration will lead to cancellation and potential legal action. Relying on postal speed alone - Send applications well in advance; postal delays are the applicant's responsibility.
