Fahad Mansoor | 10 years ago | Reply I like the idea that PTCL does these one year internship programs to encourage the youth. I have a friend who was a part of this program last year and is now working for PTCL. He had nothing but good things to say about PTCL. I think there is no reason not to apply for this internship program as it is a great opportunity to work for the biggest corporation in Pakistan.
