For the Driver posts only valid driving licences issued by the Government of Pakistan are considered, and fresh apply tokens are not accepted.
City / Domicile Applicability

Selection and Important Conditions
For BPS-01 to BPS-16 the passing threshold in the screening or written test and the interview is 40 per cent and above. The final aggregate is weighted as educational criteria 70 marks, ETEA test 20 marks and interview 10 marks. ETEA may also conduct an ability or skill test - driving, computer literacy, diving and similar - as a screening tool. On approval by the selection committee candidates undergo a medical examination at Police and Services Hospital Peshawar. Selected candidates must complete six months of mandatory training, produce a Police Clearance Certificate before the offer of appointment, and submit a surety bond on stamp paper. Government and semi-government employees must apply through the proper channel with an NOC. A separate application and a separate fee are required for each post. No TA/DA is admissible. A foreign degree requires an HEC equivalence certificate.
How to Apply
Create a profile on the ETEA website, print the E-Sahulat token and get your CNIC number verified at a NADRA E-Sahulat franchise. Without that verification you cannot apply for any post. Apply online at https://www.etea.edu.pk/, print the generated deposit slip and pay the prescribed non-refundable test fee (the advertisement does not print the fee amount). Keep the bank-stamped candidate copy of the deposit slip and do not share it. Do not send documents or testimonials to the ETEA office at this stage - they are requested later from candidates who qualify the screening test. Roll number slips are downloaded from the ETEA website after an SMS notification, so do not use a ported or converted mobile number, and no separate call letter is issued by post or courier.

Who Should Check This Update
Candidates with a paramedical, nursing or LHV background, F.Sc Pre-Engineering or DAE holders, and HTV or LTV licence holders who hold a Khyber Pakhtunkhwa domicile and can meet the physical standards.
Candidate Guidance
Check which zone your domicile falls in before you apply, because most of the 800 posts are allocated zone-wise rather than on open merit. Confirm the physical standards and the fee amount from the official advertisement, and apply separately for each post you want. Always confirm eligibility, dates, fees and application rules on the official ETEA website before you apply or pay any fee.
