...broad many times in your entire service. I myself was posted abroad five times. During posting abroad there is very good salary in foreign currency and will notice different culture and atmosphere. Dependent children can be studied in in international schools on the government expenditure. Also good medical facilities are provided to the Diplomats and Non-diplomat during their posting in the Pakistan Mission abroad.

The work environment is very good, team mates were very supportive and I must say that i am lucky to be a part of this organization. The training was held in Delhi (Induction)and Chandigarh (OJT) so i got a chance to travel as well. As I was in the 1st batch in Guwahati for which the training has been very satisfying.
