These jobs are available in big cities and regional offices including Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore, Quetta, Peshawar, and Gilgit.
NADRA said that hiring people is part of its larger plan to upgrade its operations and satisfy the growing need for citizen services, including biometric registrations and digital identity cards. The group stresses that both men and women are welcome to apply, and some positions are only open to women.
