Candidates are required to create a profile on the ETEA portal, deposit the application fee via the prescribed online deposit slip (challan), and submit their application online.

You must print the generated deposit slip from the ETEA portal and pay the application fee through a designated bank branch such as UBL, Ltd.
After successful fee submission, your application form must be finalized on the ETEA website before the closing date.
Hard copies of applications or test documents should not be sent to the ETEA office or the Directorate General of Mines and Minerals; such documents are required only for document verification if shortlisted for an interview.
The final venue and roll number slips for the written test will be updated on the official ETEA website. Candidates are advised to visit the portal regularly for updates.

General Terms and Conditions

Candidates who are successfully provisionally allowed to appear in the ETEA screening test are subjected to detailed scrutiny. If any discrepancy or disqualification is found at any stage, the candidate will be disqualified by the Appointing Authority.
Applicants can apply for more than one post, but they must submit a separate application with a separate fee for each post.
The Appointing Authority reserves the right to cancel, reject, or accept any application without assigning any reason or on account of procedural changes.
Government employees currently working in government departments must apply through the proper channel and submit an NOC (No Objection Certificate) from their department.
No TA/DA will be admissible for the written test or subsequent interviews.
Candidates must bring their original documents along with attested photocopies at the time of the interview for verification. Failure to produce original documents will lead to automatic cancellation.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the application fee for these vacancies?
The exact application fee depends on the post and is generated on the online deposit slip (challan) after you create a profile and select your desired post on the ETEA website. You will be required to pay this specific amount at a designated UBL branch.

2. Can I apply if I am not a resident of the mentioned Domicile zones?
No. The advertisement clearly specifies the required domicile/zones for each post (Zone-I to Zone-VI and Merit). Only candidates holding a valid permanent domicile in the specified zones for their chosen post are eligible. Applications from other zones will be rejected.

3. How will I know the date of the written test or interview?
Test dates, venue details, and roll number slips will not be sent via postal service. Instead, candidates must regularly visit the official ETEA website at www.etea.edu.pk to download their roll number slips. All test details will be communicated strictly through the online portal.

4. What happens if a candidate provides incomplete information or false documents?
According to the terms and conditions, if a candidate is found guilty of providing incorrect information, fake documentation, or tampering with their academic records or experience certificates, their job application will be cancelled and they will be permanently disqualified from the selection process.

5. Do I need to relax my age limit if I have a special government concession?
Age relaxation is strictly limited to individuals who hold special concessions as per government rules. Since the advertisement mentions that “no relaxation of age to be admissible except special concessions,” general age relaxation requests will not be processed. Only government concession-holders can avail age relaxation.
