Good news for fresh graduates: the National Vocational and Technical Training Commission (NAVTTC) has announced 15 paid internship positions for 2026 under the Prime Minister’s Youth Skills Development Program (PMYSDP 2023-27). This is a federal programme, not a Punjab-only scheme, giving fresh graduates real exposure to federal public-sector governance, technical education and research.
Deadline: 14 November 2026 — only 6 days from today, 8 November 2026. Do not leave your application to the last day. No closing hour or extension was stated.
This is reported information, not a confirmed promise. The listing was said to have been published on 30 October 2026, and the source states it is not an official website but an independent information portal. Always confirm the eligibility, deadline and listing status on jobs.gov.pk.
NAVTTC Internship 2026 – Key Details
15 paid internships; a reported monthly stipend of Rs 60,000; up to six months; age 20 to 30; at least 16 years of education from an HEC-recognised university; no experience required; online only, through jobs.gov.pk.
Who Can Apply for the NAVTTC Internship?
You must be 20 to 30, with at least 16 years of education — a four-year bachelor’s degree or a master’s degree — from an HEC-recognised university. Named fields are economics, finance, law, social sciences, engineering, technology and IT, and both male and female candidates are encouraged to apply. If your degree is in a similar subject, check the official listing on jobs.gov.pk: only the official portal gives the final decision.
Monthly Stipend and How It Is Paid
Selected interns receive a reported Rs 60,000 a month as a lump sum, not a salary with allowances. It is paid only after a monthly performance report on your work and progress for that month. If the report is good, payment continues; if you are not regular or not responsible, the stipend may stop. Over a full six months that would be Rs 360,000 — a maximum, not a promise, because the duration is up to six months.
Skills NAVTTC Is Looking For
You need strong MS Office skills — Word, Excel and PowerPoint — and excellent written and spoken English and Urdu. Adobe InDesign, SPSS, Tableau or Python are highly desired, not required. Certificates in these skills can be attached to make your CV stronger.
How to Apply on jobs.gov.pk
Apply online only. Visit jobs.gov.pk, the federal National Employment Exchange Tool (NEXT) portal, log in or create an account, and search for the “NAVTTC Internship” ad. Open the correct internship post, not any other post, and read it carefully. Enter complete, correct education details, upload the documents asked for, and review your name spelling, CNIC number and degree details. Submit before 14 November 2026 and save the confirmation or reference number shown after submission.
Do not open the separate short-term Resource Person or Expert roles listed alongside it. Incomplete applications will not be considered, and only eligible candidates will be called.
What Will Interns Do?
Interns may help with education and training projects, research and reports, data collection and organisation, and official documentation and office work.
After You Apply: Interview and Selection
After the last date, only shortlisted candidates are called for interview. No TA/DA will be paid, so travel is at your own cost. NAVTTC reserves the right to accept or reject any application and to increase or decrease the seats. The location is listed as “anywhere in Pakistan”, with no city or office named, and no interview or joining date was published.
Stay Safe: Beware of Fake Agents
Apply only through jobs.gov.pk. Nobody can give you a seat for a bribe or approve your application for a fee. If someone calls, messages or sends a WhatsApp link demanding money for applying, shortlisting or releasing the stipend, stop and stay safe. Never share bank details, a CNIC copy, your portal password or OTP with anyone. NAVTTC never asks for OTP or bank information over the phone.
Conclusion
With only 15 seats and a deadline of 14 November 2026, just 6 days away, check the listing on jobs.gov.pk today, confirm the age and education rules, and submit your application today — complete, correct and well before the last day.
