Eligibility
Only candidates holding a domicile of a Malakand Division district are eligible. Overall eligibility and age are reckoned as at the last date for receipt of applications, with age relaxation in accordance with prevailing rules. A candidate applying for more than one post must submit a separate application for each post.
City / Domicile Applicability
A Malakand Division district domicile is required. The advertisement enumerates the eligible districts in its conditions; one entry in that list is not legible in the published scan, so read condition 11 of the official advertisement for the exact list before applying.
Selection and Important Conditions
All candidates are provisionally allowed to appear in the ETEA screening test, and detailed scrutiny is carried out by the competent authority - a candidate found ineligible at any stage is disqualified. Shortlisting is done on the basis of the ETEA screening test, and only shortlisted candidates are called for the test and interview, where original documents are required on the day of interview. Interview notification is given by SMS only, and the candidate is responsible for providing a correct mobile number. All appointments are made on a regular basis under the prevailing rules of the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Government and semi-government employees must submit their applications through their department. Incomplete applications and applications received after the due date are not considered. No TA/DA is admissible for the test or interview.
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 through Easy Paisa, an agent, or at any branch of UBL Bank (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
Computer science and IT graduates and DIT holders, and stenography-qualified candidates, who hold a Malakand Division district domicile.
Candidate Guidance
Both routes into the Computer Operator post require a 40 words per minute typing speed, so practise typing alongside the subject preparation. Read the domicile condition in the official advertisement carefully: the eligible district list is printed there and one entry is not clear in the published scan. Always confirm eligibility, dates, fees and application rules on the official ETEA website before you apply or pay any fee.
Verification Notes
Transcribed from the official ETEA advertisement PDF for project 848 on 2026-09-21 and cross-checked against the live ETEA project directory for the project code, title and 2026-09-30 deadline. The advertisement is in Urdu and was rendered and magnified to read the vacancy table and conditions. The eligible-district list in condition 11 is partially illegible in the published scan, so no district list is reproduced here and the item remains in the verification queue. The fee amount is not printed and is therefore not stated.
