A thorough update on the Civil Defense, Correctional, Fire, and Immigration Services Board’s (CDCFIB) ongoing nationwide recruitment has been made public.
The board reports that 1,120,491 applications were successfully completed and processed, with candidates moving on to take the computer-based test (CBT).
Similarly, 360,923 applicants were rejected during the screening and shortlisting stage for not meeting the standards, while 432,935 applications were incomplete.
Over 1.8 million applications were submitted throughout Nigeria as a result of the exercise.
The Nigeria Immigration Service, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Federal Fire Service, and Nigeria Correctional Service are among the important organizations under the board that are hiring.
Additionally, CDCFIB released a national analysis of CBT scores that showed how candidates’ performance was distributed:
221,996 applicants had scores ranging from 0 to 40.
229,155 applicants had scores ranging from 41 to 60.
278,543 applicants had scores ranging from 61 to 80.
142,697 applicants had scores ranging from 81 to 100.
The next round of the hiring process, which will entail document verification and physical screening, is about to begin.
Official notices detailing the screening locations, dates, and necessary paperwork are anticipated for shortlisted individuals.
The board reaffirmed that there is no cost associated with the full recruiting process and advised candidates to rely solely on official outlets for information.
Additionally, it cautioned against false information and unofficial messaging, particularly in light of previous grievances regarding sporadic access to the recruitment platform.
