Let me tell you what's funny? Last night, I was on a call with my younger brother, and he was all excited, telling me the details. He graduated with a degree in Statistics last year and has been struggling to find a decent job. I remember once he said to me, Bhai, I'm tired of sending CVs to private companies where they do not value work, and they pay peanuts and expect you to work 12 hours a day. I just want a stable government job where I can use my statistics knowledge in a proper way.
At that moment felt bad for him because I know he's talented - really good with numbers and data analysis - but the job market can be brutal, especially for fresh graduates, as they ask them years of experience. So this morning, like I always do, I was checking the PPSC website while having my chai, and I literally jumped up from my chair when I read about amazing opportunities.
PPSC just announced three different positions: Statistical Officer, Stenographer, and Assistant Engineer. And the first thing I did? Obviously, yes, I called my brother back and asked him directly Pack your documents, the opportunity you've been waiting for is here.
The deadline is December 22, 2025 - we've got about two weeks, which is actually a decent time to prepare proper applications and apply for the positions where you are eligible.
I am writing down everything for you, and I will make sure to keep it straightforward because government job postings can be confusing sometimes.
