How to Apply — Step by Step
Read the Detailed TORs First
Detailed Terms of Reference (TORs) for all 10 positions are available on the National Job Portal (NJP) at njp.gov.pk and on the EDB official website at edb.gov.pk. Read them carefully before applying to confirm you meet all requirements.
Register / Log In on NJP Portal
Visit https://www.njp.gov.pk. Create a new account or log into your existing account. Ensure your profile — qualifications, experience, and contact information — is up to date before applying.
Complete the Online Application
Search for the EDB PAVE Program positions and complete the online application form for your target post. Upload your updated CV, degrees, experience certificates, and any other required documents as specified in the TORs.
Government Employees — Apply via Proper Channel
If currently employed in a government department, you must route your application through your department’s official proper channel before submitting on NJP. Applications without proper channel compliance from serving government employees may be disqualified.
Submit Within 15 Days of Publication
Ensure your complete online application is submitted within fifteen (15) days of the advertisement publication date. Incomplete or late applications will not be entertained.
Await Shortlisting
Only shortlisted candidates will be called for test/interview. No TA/DA is admissible. Monitor your email and the NJP portal regularly for any shortlisting or interview schedule notifications.
Double-Check Your Age Before Submitting
Different posts have different age brackets. Our free Age Calculator gives you an instant accurate answer.
Pro Tips for Applicants
The 15-day window is short. Don’t wait until the last day — NJP portal traffic spikes near deadlines. Submit 3–5 days in advance.
Have scanned PDFs of your degrees, experience letters, and CNIC ready before starting the online application to avoid interruptions.
Read the detailed TOR for your target post. Map your experience and achievements directly to the stated requirements — generic CVs rarely make the shortlist.
All shortlisting and interview updates will be communicated via NJP and the EDB website. Check both regularly after submission.
This is an electric vehicle program. Any experience with EVs, clean energy, automotive policy, or green financing is a major differentiator — mention it prominently.
The print advertisement is a summary. The full TOR on NJP/EDB website contains detailed responsibilities, deliverables, and evaluation criteria. Your application must reflect these.
Apply through your department’s proper channel before submitting on NJP. Failure to do so may result in disqualification at any stage.
These are contractual positions. Do not apply expecting permanence — the 1-year contract is extendable on performance, but there is no regularization pathway.
