The remuneration is not quoted in rupees; the post carries the PPS-7 designation on contract terms, and the final package will be settled in line with the organisation's contract policy. Applicants whose degrees or professional certificates were obtained abroad should ensure that they are recognised by the Higher Education Commission or the relevant professional regulator, because verification of documents is a routine part of federal hiring.
