What is the difference between a ministry and an organisation?
Ministries make policy; organisations/authorities implement it or regulate sectors — and usually hire directly rather than through FPSC.
Are organisation jobs permanent?
Often contract-based (1–2 years, extendable) rather than permanent civil service posts. Read each advertisement’s terms carefully.
