Who Should Check This Update
Candidates with a Khyber Pakhtunkhwa domicile including the Merged Districts who hold a DAE (Civil) or a Field Assistant diploma, are aged 20 to 32, and are eligible under the Minority Quota.
Candidate Guidance
Both cadres are screened by an ETEA test, so the written screening is the first filter rather than the interview. Always confirm eligibility, dates, fees and application rules on the official source before you apply or pay any fee.
Verification Notes
Transcribed from the official ETEA advertisement image for project 865 and from the official corrigendum PDF on 2026-10-13. The corrigendum was opened and read directly: it moves the form-availability date to 05-10-2026 and the last date to 25-10-2026 and states that other details remain the same, so those dates are used here rather than the 28 September and 14 October dates printed on the original advertisement. The 25-October-2026 closing date was cross-checked against the live ETEA project directory, which lists project 865 as "Director General Soil and Water Conservation - 2026". The advertisement prints no experience requirement and no fee amount, so both are recorded as not specified.
