Kindly guide about books for sindhi and islamic history . And guide about screening test

Can you please share your experience about screening test? Like what was the difficulty level of this test? Also, I read somewhere about some stupid questions being asked in screening test like 'On what date David Cameron visited Pakistan?' What was the cutoff score to make it through to main exams?

What about applying for multiple post?

Well the level of test is difficult but the positive thing is that it requires only 50 marks to qualify for next step. The screening test covers variety of subjects.

CCE is a provincial exam, so need to move in federal govt. If a person is not on contract, can get NOC from parent department easily.

I am on contract as Govt employee. Is it mandatory to get NOC? Or I may apply just mentioned with the current job in applying without NOC?
