sponsored links

There’s a new notification of LIC AAO 2018, that is being circulating on websites and social media from last 3 days. Stating the Life Insurance Corporation of India is going to recruit 700 posts of Assistant Administrative Officers (AAOs) for the year 2018 and the online applications link will be available from 25th June 2018.

Even reputed news papers like the Times of India have also published the notification. But there is nothing in the official website of the Life Insurance Corporation (www.licindia.in). Hopefully the notification is genuine, so that it will be beneficial for hundreds of aspirants. But it seems, that the notification is fake.

Reasons for LIC AAO 2018 notification being fake

Blurry Image : Everybody is sharing a blurry image of the notification, which is claimed to be released by LIC. It seems they are circulating the same image.

Vacancy Details : The LIC AAO 2018 notification stated that there are total of 700 vacancies. Which are of (104 SC, 52 ST, 192 OBC, 349 UR and 3 backlog vacancies). If you check the LIC AAO 2016 notification (link given below), there are same exact number of vacancies (104 SC, 52 ST, 192 OBC, 349 UR and 3 backlog). How could it be possible ?
