To apply for this position, the applicants are required to have a bachelor’s degree in Law from a recognised university or institute. While inviting applications, Sebi has also cautioned candidates against falling prey to any unscrupulous elements who may try to deceive them by false promises of securing jobs in the regulator, according to a public notice. In case any candidate comes across such an offer, the same may be immediately brought to the notice of the regulator with full details, such as name and contact details, of the elements indulging in such practice.
