QESCO Jobs 2026: Last Date, Posts, Eligibility and How to Apply

The last date for QESCO jobs 2026 is 14 November 2026, which is tomorrow. Quetta Electric Supply Company is hiring for about 2,800 contract posts across Balochistan, and applications go only through the National Jobs Portal (njp.gov.pk).

If you have not applied yet, read the checklist below first. If you have already applied, skip to the interview section.

Your Last-Day Checklist

Do these in order. Together they take less than an hour if your documents are ready.

1. Check your domicile. Every post needs a Balochistan domicile. Candidates from other provinces cannot apply.
2. Check your age. The portal shows a maximum of 35 years. Federal age relaxation may apply, so read the listing for your post.
3. Check your result. If your final exam result has not been announced, you cannot apply.
4. Create or log in to your NJP account. You need your CNIC and an email address you can open.
5. Complete your CV. Add domicile, education and experience before you press Apply.
6. Apply for each post you qualify for. Do not apply for posts that ask for a diploma, a licence or years of experience that you do not have.
7. Save the confirmation. Take a screenshot of the submitted application.

There is no application fee on the portal, according to a published portal FAQ. If anyone asks you for money to “secure” a job, do not pay.

Which QESCO Post Fits Your Education?

The posts run from BPS-01 to BPS-15. This table groups the seats by education, using one website’s count of the portal listings. A few posts could fit two groups, so use it as a guide, not as official data.

Your education	Examples of posts	Approx. seats
Primary, middle or literate	Sweeper, mali, naib qasid, cook	361
Matric	Assistant lineman, bill distributor, store helper	1,144
Matric science with a certificate	ASSA GSO, electric fitter-II, meter mechanic	248
Intermediate	Meter reader, junior clerk	136
Diploma (DAE or 3-year)	Line superintendent, SSO, sub engineer	380
Bachelor’s degree	Commercial assistant, accounts assistant, steno	303
Matric with licence and driving experience	Vehicle driver	226

Matric candidates have the largest pool. The biggest single post is assistant lineman, with about 826 seats. Some posts, such as crane operator and driver, also ask for experience or a licence, so always read the full listing.

What These Jobs Are, and What They Are Not

• They are contract jobs, usually a one-year lump-sum contract that may be extended on good performance.
• They are not regular posts and will not be regularised.
• The listings I could find do not state the pay, so treat any salary figure you see on social media as unconfirmed.
• No travel or daily allowance is given for tests or interviews.

This matters because a contract job is a good fit for someone who wants experience and income now, but it is not a path to a permanent post.

What Happens After You Apply

QESCO has formed district-level selection committees. They will check your documents, confirm your eligibility and hold interviews from 16 to 20 November 2026.

Interviews are planned in these districts: Quetta, Turbat, Gwadar, Khuzdar, Awaran, Chagai, Panjgur, Kharan, Washuk, Hub, Lasbela, Wadh, Loralai, Pishin, Sibi and Dera Murad Jamali. Quetta district interviews are on 20 November, and candidates from northern districts may also attend in Quetta.

Bring your original educational documents, CNIC, domicile and any other documents required by your post. Check your NJP account and QESCO announcements for your own date and venue.

Author’s Thoughts

The interview dates start two days after the application deadline. In my view, that means this recruitment will move fast, and readers who wait for a “reminder” may miss it. The safest approach is to apply today and prepare originals right away.

I would also be careful about the post count. Different websites show 2,752, 2,786 and 2,798 vacancies. Small differences like this usually come from how listings are counted, but they are a good reminder that the portal, not a blog, is the final word. The same goes for salary, which the listings do not state.

Finally, one lesson from earlier QESCO advertisements this year (such as the Head of Security and Chief Internal Auditor posts) is that old QESCO pages stay online long after their deadlines. Always check the date on any QESCO job page before you act.
