Sindh Govt Launches iWork4Sindh Online Job Portal to Transform Public Sector Recruitment. The Sindh government has officially launched the Sindh Job Portal (SJP) — a modern, digital platform designed to make government hiring transparent, fast, and corruption-free. Introduced by Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah, the portal reflects the spirit of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto’s slogan: “Benazir Ai Hai, Rozgar Lai Hai.”

This new portal aims to offer young people across the province equal access to public sector job opportunities through a single, easy-to-use online system. With its smart features, automated screening, and integrated verification, the SJP marks an important milestone in Sindh’s digital governance journey.

What is the Sindh Job Portal (SJP)?

The Sindh Job Portal is a fully online recruitment system where candidates can:

  • Create an online profile
  • Apply for government vacancies
  • Take screening tests
  • Track results instantly
  • Receive automated updates

It is designed to remove manual procedures, reduce delays, and limit corruption by shifting the entire hiring process to a transparent digital framework.

Vision and Objectives of the Sindh Job Portal

The Sindh government launched the SJP with clear goals:

1. Merit-Based Hiring

All recruitment decisions will rely on digitally recorded tests, data verification, and standardized procedures.

2. Transparency and Fairness

Every candidate gets equal access to opportunities, minimizing human influence or manipulation.

3. Time and Cost Efficiency

The portal reduces paperwork, travel expenses, and processing delays for both applicants and government departments.

4. Digital Governance Transformation

The portal supports Sindh’s broader ambition to modernize provincial services through technology.

Key Announcements by CM Syed Murad Ali Shah

During the official launch, the Chief Minister highlighted several major updates:

  • Candidates can retake recruitment tests multiple times.
  • The first test attempt is free, paid by the Sindh government.
  • More than 326,000 candidates have already passed exams through this system.
  • Monthly exams will be introduced for consistent opportunities.
  • Immediate results will be displayed after each test.
  • Candidates can upload all essential documents (matric certificate, CNIC, domicile, etc.) to build a secure, digital profile.

The CM described the portal as a digital bridge between the government and the youth of Sindh.

Features and Functionality of the Sindh Job Portal

The SJP is not just a job board — it is a complete recruitment ecosystem. Everything from job advertisements to appointment letters is processed online.

Key Features Include:

1. AI-Based Job Matching

Smart algorithms suggest jobs that best match a candidate’s skills and qualifications.

2. Voice Search in English & Urdu

A convenient feature for users with varying literacy and typing skills.

3. Multilingual Interface

Users can switch between Urdu, Sindhi, and English.

4. Integrated Verification System

The portal is connected to:

  • Sindh Health Department
  • Special Branch of Sindh Police

This enables online medical and character verification, reducing delays drastically.

5. Instant Alerts & Notifications

Candidates receive SMS, email, and in-app notifications about:

  • Job openings
  • Test dates
  • Results
  • Appointment updates

6. Anti–Double Employment System

The portal prevents candidates from applying for multiple government jobs simultaneously, ensuring fairness and accuracy.

Collaboration and Development Partners

The Sindh Job Portal is a collaborative project between:

  • Sindh Department of Science & Information Technology
  • Sukkur IBA University

The system is connected with the widely trusted Screening Test Initiative, developed with Sukkur IBA for conducting transparent tests from BPS-05 to BPS-15.

Sindh is now the first province in Pakistan to offer a fully digital, merit-based recruitment process.

Impact of SJP on the Recruitment Process

Before the introduction of this portal, recruitment in Sindh could take 6 to 12 months.
Now, the complete process has been shortened to just one month.

Major Improvements Include:

  • Faster application processing
  • Immediate publication of job advertisements after approval
  • Instant test results
  • Reduced travel and exam fees for applicants
  • Lower workload for departments
  • Complete transparency of applicant data

This digital transformation ensures that hiring is fair, fast, and publicly accountable.

How Government Departments Will Use the Portal

Every Sindh government department is now required to upload vacancies through the SJP. The workflow is fully automated:

  1. Department uploads job requirements
  2. Finance Department reviews financial approvals online
  3. Information Department publishes the job advertisement
  4. The job appears instantly on the Sindh Job Portal

This method removes unnecessary delays and ensures every job opening is documented properly.
