7th Food Analyst Examination, 2021 (7th FAE-2021) and 4th Junior Analyst Examination, 2021 (4th JAE-2021).

 7th Food Analyst Examination, 2021 (7th FAE-2021) and 4th Junior Analyst Examination, 2021 (4th JAE-2021).

Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has advertised the online application for 7th Food Analyst Examination, 2021 (7th FAE-2021) and 4th Junior Analyst Examination, 2021 (4th JAE-2021). The Junior Food Analyst Examination is meant for freshers while the Food analyst examination is for candidates who have 3-years of experience. Qualifying this examination will obviously give you an edge over other candidates in your career opportunities, especially when you are intending to work in Quality Assurance/ Control and in Food Analysis Laboratory. However this is to bring to your notice that these exams are not for employment at present, rather they are competency exams that may make you eligible for future vacancies. You may consider these exams to be similar to NET. Mere qualifying NET doesn't guarantee you an Assistant Professor Job, rather you become eligible for it for better opportunities in the future. The same is the case with these exams.

All the information provided below is from the official FSSAI website.
