In addition, selected candidates will be required to submit a financial bond worth $15,000 as part of the program agreement.
The airline has also launched a separate initiative to recruit 20 experienced commercial pilots, as it attempts to overcome a shortage of cockpit crew amid efforts to streamline operations and restore international routes.
Interested candidates meeting the required qualifications have been instructed to submit their applications to the PIA HR department within 15 days.
