CDCFIB shortlists additional candidates for recruitment, issues vital instructions
The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has announced that additional candidates across all services have been shortlisted and can now check their status on the official recruitment portal tonight.
Applicants are advised to visit the portal via https://recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng/ to confirm their status and, if shortlisted, complete the required fields to print their examination slips.
According to the board, no emails or SMS notifications will be sent to candidates. All shortlisted applicants must log in directly to the portal to verify and print their invitation slips.
The board also issued strict instructions for candidates:
- Any discrepancies noticed should be reported immediately through the CDCFIB Support Portal.
- Ensure all printed details match the information provided during registration.
- Candidates must dress appropriately and conduct themselves in an orderly manner throughout the exercise.
- The board does not issue offline printouts; any document not generated directly from the portal is invalid.
- Invitation printouts are strictly non-transferable, and publishing them online will attract penalties.
The CDCFIB urged all applicants to adhere strictly to these guidelines to ensure a smooth and transparent recruitment process.
