CDCFIB Recruitment: Portal for shortlisted applicants goes live – Check
The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has activated its recruitment portal for applicants to confirm their shortlist status for the 2025 aptitude test.
Candidates who participated in the recruitment exercise for the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCOS), Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Federal Fire Service (FFS), and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) can now visit the official portal, https://recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng, to check their application status, exam date, venue, and time.
In a statement issued on Wednesday night and obtained by Very Nigerian, the Secretary to the Board, Maj. Gen. A.M. Jibril (Rtd.), confirmed that the portal is open from Thursday, October 30, 2025.
Jibril urged all applicants to adhere strictly to the official instructions on the website and ignore information from unauthorized sources or individuals.
He also warned against fraudsters offering preferential treatment in exchange for payment, emphasizing that the recruitment process is transparent and based solely on merit.
He said the ongoing exercise, which spans the four paramilitary agencies under the Board’s supervision, is part of the Federal Government’s broader initiative to boost national security and public safety.
