Collaboration and Development Partners
The Sindh Job Portal (SJP) is a joint initiative between the Sindh Department of Science and Information Technology and Sukkur IBA University.
It is linked with the Screening Test Initiative, a program developed in collaboration with Sukkur IBA to conduct transparent recruitment exams for positions from BPS-5 to BPS-15.
Through this partnership, Sindh has become the first province in Pakistan to establish a completely digital and merit-based recruitment system.
Impact on Recruitment Process
Before the introduction of the Sindh Job Portal, the government hiring process could take up to 12 months. Now, it has been reduced to just one month.
Key benefits include:
- Faster processing of job applications and approvals.
- Immediate publishing of vacancies after financial approval.
- Instant availability of exam results and job updates.
- Reduced travel and examination costs for candidates.
This modern approach not only ensures fairness but also saves valuable time for both applicants and departments.
Role of Government Departments in the Portal
Every Sindh government department is now required to upload its vacancy details on the Sindh Job Portal.
Here’s how the new system works:
- Once a department decides to hire, it updates its requirements on the portal.
- The Finance Department reviews and approves the financial aspect online.
- The Information Department then publishes the advertisement in newspapers and simultaneously uploads it to the portal.
This fully automated coordination ensures transparency, eliminates unnecessary delays, and keeps all recruitment records in one place.
