Ministry of Defence Announces Hundreds of Jobs from BS-01 to BS-18 Across Pakistan
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has announced a major recruitment drive, offering hundreds of government jobs ranging from BS-01 to BS-18 for Pakistani nationals. The move is expected to create wide employment opportunities across multiple sectors, attracting candidates from diverse educational and professional backgrounds.
According to the official advertisement, the vacancies span technical, administrative, security, medical, clerical, and support staff roles. The recruitment covers both senior officer-level posts and entry-level positions, making it one of the most comprehensive hiring initiatives by the ministry in recent years.
For higher-grade roles, the Ministry of Defence is seeking experienced professionals for posts such as Deputy Director, Assistant Director, and Assistant Director (Engineering, Computer Programming, Research and Analysis). These positions require relevant degrees, professional certifications, and in some cases, prior intelligence, engineering, or research experience.
Mid-level opportunities include roles such as Charge Nurse, Sub Divisional Officer, Assistant, Sub Inspector, Traffic Analyst, Photographer, and clerical staff. These posts are aimed at candidates with intermediate to graduate-level education, along with specific technical or field experience where applicable.
The recruitment drive also includes a large number of positions in lower pay scales, including drivers, electricians, mechanics, supervisors, receptionists, midwives, and various support staff roles such as Naib Qasid, Chowkidar, Mali, Cook, and Sanitary Worker. This ensures opportunities for candidates with matric, middle, or primary-level education as well.
The Ministry of Defence has clearly outlined age limits, educational requirements, and provincial or merit-based quotas for each post. The closing date for applications is 1 March 2026, and all eligibility conditions will be assessed as of this date.
Age relaxation will be granted under government rules. This includes concessions for candidates from scheduled castes, tribal areas, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan, Sindh (Rural), and Balochistan. Additional relaxation is available for government servants, retired armed forces personnel, persons with disabilities, and family members of deceased government employees.
Applicants should note that the recruitment process includes a screening test with negative marking, where 0.25 marks will be deducted for each incorrect answer. No travel or daily allowance will be provided for tests or interviews.
The application process is fully online. Candidates must apply through the official portal at recruitments.com.pk, where application forms and 1Bill payment slips can be generated. Hard copy submissions are not required. Application fees vary by pay scale, while persons with disabilities are exempt from the fee upon submission of valid documentation.
The Ministry has advised applicants to regularly check the website for updates, as test schedules and results will not be communicated via post or courier. This large-scale hiring initiative reflects the Ministry of Defence’s commitment to strengthening its workforce while offering stable career opportunities across Pakistan.
