FPSC Jobs 2026 Balochistan Quota: Assistant, Stenotypist and Data Entry Operator, Apply on NJP by 20 November

FPSC posted the "Positions Vacant" notice on its jobs page on 13 November 2026. Each post has one seat. The Assistant seat is reserved for a woman. The other two are open merit seats within the Balochistan quota.

FPSC has 3 Balochistan quota posts in its secretariat

The three FPSC posts are one Assistant in BS-15 for a woman, one Stenotypist in BS-14 and one Data Entry Operator in BS-14. All three are for Pakistani citizens with a Balochistan domicile, and all three are in the FPSC secretariat in Islamabad.

The NJP figures are 5 years higher than the notice. That matches the notice's rule that Balochistan domicile holders get the general 5 year age relaxation. Other relaxation claims are judged under the Establishment Division's age rules.

Each post needs a different qualification

The Assistant post needs a bachelor's degree. The Stenotypist post needs Intermediate with shorthand and typing speed. The Data Entry Operator post needs a bachelor's in Physics, Mathematics, Statistics, Economics, Computer Science or IT from an HEC-recognised university.

• Assistant (BS-15): graduate. A 6 week basic IT course, including MS Office, from the National IT Board (NITB) must be completed before probation ends.
• Stenotypist (BS-14): Intermediate, shorthand at 80 words a minute and typing at 40 words a minute, and computer literate.
• Data Entry Operator (BS-14): bachelor's with one of the six subjects above, and a data entry speed of at least 10,000 key depressions an hour.

There is a one-time concession for the Stenotypist and Data Entry Operator posts. If no candidate holds the speed certificates at selection, the person selected can learn the skill on the job. Their speed is then tested before confirmation, and failure is handled under the probation rules.

You apply on the National Job Portal by 20 November

Applications go only through njp.gov.pk, the federal government's job portal. Each post has its own NJP listing. All three show 13 November 2026 as the posting date and 20 November 2026 as the deadline. FPSC does not accept applications delivered by hand.

1. Open njp.gov.pk and register or log in with your CNIC. The NJP registration steps cover the profile and documents.
2. Complete your profile: education, experience, domicile and a photo.
3. Search for the job, or open the FPSC listing for Assistant, Stenotypist or Data Entry Operator.
4. Check that your age and degree fit the post.
5. Click Login to Apply and submit. Apply separately for each post you want.
6. Keep the confirmation, and keep your original documents ready for the interview.

The notice itself says applications are due within 15 days of the advertisement, and FPSC's jobs page keeps the notice up until 29 November. The NJP listings, where you actually apply, close on 20 November. Apply by 20 November so the earlier date cannot catch you out.

Government employees must apply through proper channel

If you already work for the government, send your application through your department with a no objection certificate (NOC). FPSC says an application without the NOC will not be entertained.

The notice adds these conditions:

• Recruitment follows the Establishment Division's O.M. No. 2/5/2026-BEFC/001 of 22 and 27 October 2026.
• Bring original documents and a set of attested copies, verified by HEC, the board or the university, to the interview.
• The selected candidate must submit a medical certificate. If found medically unfit, the post goes to the alternate candidate.
• No travel or daily allowance is paid for the test or interview.
• The number of vacancies can go up or down.

For other federal openings for Balochistan, the DRAP Balochistan quota posts used the same NJP route. The federal jobs quota by province explains how Balochistan's 6% share works. For the commission's main advertisement, see FPSC Consolidated Advertisement 4/2026, which closes on 23 November.

These posts are separate from FPSC's competitive recruitment

These three jobs are hiring for FPSC's own office staff, not posts FPSC fills for other ministries. They do not go through the commission's usual online application at cp.fpsc.gov.pk, and the notice sets no fee. Questions go to FPSC's Director (HR) on 051-9212332.
