No, the **PMS (Provincial Management Services)** does not include vacancies for the
**PAS (Pakistan Administrative Service)**, as PAS is a part of the **CSS (Central
Superior Services)** exam and is specifically for federal government positions.
### **PAS vs. PMS**
- **PAS (Pakistan Administrative Service)**:
- **Recruited through CSS**, PAS officers are part of the central government and
serve in key administrative roles at the national level.
- They work in various ministries, divisions, and government departments, with a
focus on policymaking and governance at the federal level.
- **PMS (Provincial Management Services)**:
- **Recruited through PMS**, PMS officers are part of the provincial government
and work in various administrative and developmental roles at the provincial level.
- PMS jobs are within provincial departments and focus on local governance and
management within that specific province (e.g., Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,
Balochistan).

### **Key Differences:**
- **PAS** officers are federal-level administrative officers, while **PMS**
officers serve at the provincial level.
- If you want a **PAS** position, you must take the **CSS exam**.
- **PMS** exams do not offer positions within the federal administrative structure
like PAS.
If your goal is to join PAS and work in central government administration, the CSS
exam is the path to pursue. Let me know if you need more information on that!
