CSS vs PMS

In Pakistan, the two most popular exams for a government job are CSS (Central Superior Services) and PMS (Provincial Management Services). Both of these serve to help the candidates in securing important positions in the federal and provincial governments. However, both have differences regarding scope, career paths, and regions of focus. Let’s first take a glimpse of what CSS is followed by PMS for your convenience to decide which one will be more suited for your desired career.

Which Test Should You Take???

What you are looking for will depend on whether you choose CSS or PMS. If you want to get into Federal Services and maybe have working opportunities abroad, you can opt for CSS. But if you aim to apply at the level of provinces, and consequently, run local governance, then PMS is the way ahead.

Conclusion

Both CSS and PMS provide good career opportunities related to public service. Moreover, CSS trains the candidates for the federal level which influences the nation, while PMS further emphasizes provincial administration. Therefore, knowing the differences will facilitate your own informed choice in planning a good career for the future.
