Note here that Sindh’s Education and Literary Department (ELD) had advertised over 50,000 posts of junior elementary school teachers (JEST) and primary school teachers (PST) in March last year.
SIBA Testing Service (STS), an independent recruitment agency under IBA Sukkur, conducted the written test in thousands of centers all over the province and hired successful candidates only on a merit basis.
