A District Data Officer plays a crucial role in collecting, analyzing, and submitting accurate district-level data that supports development projects, monitoring frameworks, and government planning decisions. The job involves both field and office activities, including visiting locations working with survey teams, using digital applications for uploading data, communicating with district officers, and ensuring that the information collected is reliable and error-free. This job requires energetic individuals who can work under time constraints, maintain accuracy, and follow instructions carefully. Since the Urban Unit operates across Punjab, candidates must be flexible and willing to work in any assigned district. The best part is that fresh candidates can also apply, and no prior field experience is mandatory. However, candidates with survey experience (like census, BISP survey, school data collection, or mobile-based forms) will have a clear advantage. This project-based job expands learning opportunities and gives exposure to modern tools, monitoring systems, and data infrastructures used in government sectors.
The application process is completely online and handled through the EPR (Employment Processing Resource) system. Candidates must create an online profile, upload their documents, and pay the required processing fee of PKR 400 to submit their form successfully. EPR is responsible for collecting applications, verifying documents, and notifying candidates about their test or interview schedule. Only those candidates who complete their documents and pay the fee will be considered; incomplete applications will be rejected without review. After applying, candidates should regularly check their EPR dashboard and mobile SMS updates. The selection process may include a screening test, data entry evaluation, or a short interview, depending on project requirements. Since the last date is 19 December 2025, candidates are strongly encouraged to apply early to avoid server issues or payment delays.
