What Is NTS and How Does It Work?
NTS is a private, not-for-profit testing organization that many Pakistani government departments hire to conduct standardized recruitment tests. Rather than each department designing its own exam, they outsource testing to NTS for consistency and transparency.
Types of NTS Tests
- NAT (NTS Aptitude Test) — general test used for admissions and some recruitment
- GAT (Graduate Assessment Test) — for graduate-level scholarship and academic screening
- Job-specific/departmental tests — custom MCQ tests designed for a particular hiring department’s advertised posts
Eligibility
Eligibility for any NTS-administered job test is set by the hiring department, not NTS itself — this includes the required qualification, age limit and domicile. Always check the original job advertisement from the hiring department for exact criteria.
How to Register for an NTS Test
- Find the relevant job advertisement (from the hiring department or NTS website nts.org.pk)
- Download and fill the application form, or register online where available
- Submit required documents — CNIC, photo, educational certificates, domicile
- Pay the test fee via bank deposit or online banking as instructed
- Submit your form before the closing date
- Download your Roll Number Slip from nts.org.pk once issued
- Appear at your allotted test center on the scheduled date
Checking NTS Results
Results are usually published on nts.org.pk a few weeks after the test, searchable by roll number or CNIC. Merit lists are then compiled by the hiring department for the interview stage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is NTS itself a recruiting department?
No — NTS only conducts the test on behalf of the hiring government department, university or organization. Final hiring decisions rest with that department.
How do I know which department is hiring through NTS right now?
Check the “Jobs” section of nts.org.pk regularly, as well as major newspapers, for new advertisements naming NTS as the testing agency.
What should I bring to the NTS test center?
Your original CNIC/B-Form and a printed copy of your Roll Number Slip are mandatory; check the slip for any additional department-specific requirements.
Disclaimer: Test formats, fees and schedules are set by NTS and the hiring department and can change per advertisement. Always confirm current details on nts.org.pk before applying or paying any fee.
