As reported in Dawn, a statement from the Sindh Chief Minister's House had directed management of JPMC, the biggest government-run hospital in the provincial capital, to extend an offer to Dr. Sara Gill for her first job out of medical school.
CM Shah said that the PPP government supported the transgender community and would aid their advancement wherever possible.
"We will ensure dignity and respect for transgenders in all sectors," the chief minister is quoted as saying in the statement.
In a historic first for the transgender community, Dr Gill graduated with her Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery (MBBS) from Jinnah Medical and Dental College last month.
In an interview, Dr. Gill relayed the difficulties she faced within Pakistan, and even among her own family, because of her gender identity.
Shortly after her graduation, Dr. Gill said, "I wanted to make Pakistan famous and my parents have also accepted me after I became a doctor. I want to tell the transgender community to not lose hope. If I can become a doctor then anyone of you can work hard and be successful."
