National Testing Service (NTS) is among the top testing services of Pakistan. NTS came into being with the vision of providing the best services for selection. NTS takes tests for academic as well as professional purposes. Many universities of Pakistan do rely on the result evaluated by NTS. In the same way, a large group of Public and Private Companies and departments also hire NTS for arranging their recruitment tests.
NTS at a Glance
NTS came into existence in the year 2002. NTS was considered among those testing services that were initiated with greater visions. THE purpose of this testing service was to testify a candidate according to the international standards. Moreover making the students of Pakistan best and polishing the individuals for job competencies was also the aim of NTS. NTS has done this job superbly and some of the main aspects of the vision of NTS are illustrated below:
Transparency
NTS has kept the integrity in order to make the country great. Their testing service is transparent and not ambiguous in any regard. This is the system on which big companies can easily rely and almost all sectors accept the result and test conducted by NTS deliberately. Because they all are aware of the integrity of NTS and they have a clear idea about their performance.

They are working deeply and evaluating the real outcome within the candidates. Thus NTS is increasing the credibility for professionals.

NTS works on some of the best standards which should be the part and parcel of any company. NTS has kept the transparency since it’s embarked. We can find that all the tests which are delivered by NTS are well marked. NTS is highlighting the educational sector and making them great for the upcoming challenges.

Why is NTS working efficiently?
NTS has a marvelous vision and they are really working to improve the performance of candidates. NTS works with the best team and they are really efficient for their results. They don’t make the tests late and they work in time.
Pakistan is among those countries that are in developing state. Pakistan needs to grow faster in order to chase the best countries. According to the Institute for Policy Reforms (IPR), the unemployment rate in Pakistan is closer to 8.5%. Another Factsheet by IPR reveals the following:
Pakistan has improved the employment ratio and we are working in the righteous direction. Several Government and Private Departments are shaping the country in order to be included in the list of world’s successful countries. However, there are various factors which are responsible for joblessness here in Pakistan:
1. Lack of knowledge
One of the main factors which are responsible for the unemployment is the absence of proper knowledge. We can find many graduates and Master degree holders who have no idea about their field. They don’t know about the upcoming technologies and they don’t know how to deal with the strategies in the job market. This is the main reason for the unemployment in Pakistan.
2. Energy Crisis
Having the fewer resources of energy is also the main factor for not having many jobs here. In some departments, there are many energy resources but the work force doesn’t have the idea how to make a proper use of those resources. It’s also a big reason for unemployment.
3. Career Grooming
There is also another important reason for unemployment in Pakistan which is the absence of career grooming. Many of our students are not groomed properly and they have no idea how to work and how to step into the market.
4. Lack of Guidance
Another big thing is the lack of guidance. We have a number of graduates who are misguided. Many students have also no idea about their future purposes. They have some ambiguity regarding their goals and they have created complexities about their future.
5. Absence of Job Resources
In Pakistan, one main factor of joblessness is the absence of awareness. Students are not aware that how we have to find a job. They don’t know how to search for the job and therefore many of them remain unemployed. It’s not always the lack of jobs but also it can be the absence of proper search and knowledge.
How is NTS eliminating the unemployment?
NTS is playing a great role in this regard and we can find out a marvelous history of this. WE can find that since 2002 NTS is enabling professionals to be more sounding. NTS has also managed a website which can be helpful for the candidates. A student can easily go to the website and select the desired test. After passing the test any student can evaluate that either he is suitable for this degree or not.
Moreover, the same criteria can be applied for those who want to initiate their careers. They can search through the Website of NTS. They can find here jobs and appear in the relevant jobs. If they are suitable for their desired posts so they will be successful otherwise they can find a new gateway for shaping their career.
