The Federal Government has extended the deadline for applications into the Federal Civil Service to March 17, 2025.
The Federal Civil Service Commission initially announced the recruitment exercise on January 27, 2025, offering over 70 positions across various ministries, departments, and agencies.
However, many citizens lamented difficulties accessing the recruitment portal, prompting widespread calls for an extension.
FCSC spokesperson, Hassan Taiwo acknowledged that some applicants encountered technical issues but maintained that others could register successfully.
In an advertisement published in two national dailies and shared by Taiwo on Monday, the commission announced that the new deadline supersedes the previous one, which was initially set for March 10, 2025.
“The Federal Civil Service Commission has extended the closing date for receiving applications for various vacancies in the Federal Civil Service to Monday, March 17, 2025, to allow more eligible candidates to participate in the exercise.”
This announcement supersedes the previous advertisement of Monday, January 27, 2025, in some national dailies, as well as the FCSC website (www.fedcivilservice.gov.ng), where the deadline was initially Monday, March 10, 2025.
“Qualified Nigerians are urged to take advantage of this extension and apply for the available vacancies.
“The Commission assures applicants of a merit-driven and transparent recruitment process,” it concluded.
