The Federal Government has extended the deadline for applications into the Federal Civil Service to March 17, 2025.
The Federal Civil Service Commission (FCSC) initially announced the recruitment exercise on January 27, 2025, offering over 70 positions across various ministries, departments, and agencies. However, many applicants faced difficulties accessing the recruitment portal, leading to widespread calls for an extension.
FCSC spokesperson Hassan Taiwo acknowledged that some applicants encountered technical issues but maintained that others were able to register successfully.
In an advertisement published in two national newspapers and shared by Taiwo on Monday, the commission confirmed that the new deadline overrides the previous one, which was initially set for March 10, 2025.
