Recruitment process
The recruitment process will involve several stages: Qualified applicants will be invited for a computer-based test (CBT) at a centre near their local government of residence. Successful CBT candidates will then proceed to interviews.
“Successful candidates will undergo further verification exercises, including drug testing, before the issuance of employment letters,” Abubakar explained.
These tests will be conducted at approved National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) centres.
Recruitment’s Focus
“This process will strongly balance between qualification, competence, employability, and availability to work in the hinterlands/rural areas where we mostly require teachers,” the Chairman stated.
He assured the public that the process would be fair and would consider qualifications, competence, employability, and the willingness to serve in remote locations.
