THe foprm to use is DS-156, Non-Immigrant visa application.

1. Write your Indian address (it is box 12)
2. Write Indian home phone number (it is box 13)
Write your employer's name and address, ph number, fax etc.
in boxes 16, 17 and 18.
3 . I couldn't find such a box in DS-156. Box 25 is "DO you intend to work in the US?"

What form are you referring to?

Haris44,

Sorry I did not realize that DS-156 has been revised recently. You can include your name and address there and that should be enough. You can also check with the consulate. I think that question is more relevant for temporary visitors, students, etc.
