bumbum1234:
Yes i got the link

Which position did you apply for

bumbum1234:
Also got d mail.. but no response from them yet.

@ bumbum1234,

did u get a link after submission to monitor your application processes?

@ all, i got mail from UBA to do a video interview for the recently advertised compliance officer position,
who else got their mail?

Yaasir:
I am going to give a very comprehensive response based on my knowledge, information and cross-referencing with other credible sources:
There was promotion exam in firs but it ended on the 29th of December, 2017. I heard only 60 people will be promoted.
Recruitment is based on many factors: allocation to states and various grades presently occupied by each state.
The recruitment has not been hijacked by NASS but firs itself (the oga at the top). Almost all the people that went for the interview were supposed to get the job but the reality on ground is “many of them would not get it”. The issue is not necessarily firs directly but allocation given to each power block. Let us be sincere with ourselves, how many people went for that interview without being nominated by someone? Please, be truthful. The person that nominated me had 15 people on the list for 3 different power block (the head of one of the military arm had 5 people from his state)! He was told to ranked us according to his preference based on reality on ground. He was eventually given 5 slots. I was covered on the slot but my state cannot accommodate my grade. So, I was given another option. So like that, many people changed their preferred candidate based on pressure and reality on ground. Many people went for interview afterward cos you know why? The number 1 guy on our list was also nominated by federal character commission. The day after, fcc called him to know whether he went for the interview. What it means is that either our link in the presidency or fcc must nominate another person. Also, firs reduced some people’s allocation. So, you see why some names will be dropped and others replaced.
As a matter of fact, nothing is going on inside firs. No letter is being typed but funny enough, the recruitment is going on and very real. The offer letter would most surely come from outside the firs. After all, it only needs the oga’s signature to be official. Only Fowler and few people know about the process. The same way the interview invite came without their staff knowing. Personally, I believe you can still put pressure and get it without attending any interview.
Only God knows when the recruitment will end. It is really a long walk. Some people might be given you contrary information. It may not necessarily be wrong but depend on from where they are getting the info (Politician, presidency, nass, firs, firs management, Fowler, the consultant or even public forum). It all boils down to source!

Thank you Yaasir for this elaborate information.
we started this journey together in 2016 and by
the grace of God, we shall all smile together in this 2018
Welcome back bro......we all luv you.

when did he receive d call and when is the interview pls?

@ all, i heard there will be 2nd batch of the FIRS recruitment, can someone also confirm from their various sources
and revert to the house.

Has anybody gotten a call for interview for tomorrow?

Will they still call other applicants in due course?

medulla01:
.yes d lady with me today apply for d post.i wish they call u d interview in batch.many people will still invite dont lose hope

@ medulla01.......are you saying other applicants will still be called in due course?

oyeludef:
Alot of people being invited is based on merit. A friend who has a Firstclass and doesn't know anyone got invited. Since private recruiters are being used, i will advise u prepare for a thorough interview session even though dey only asked u to come with some documents, dey didn't say u wouldn't be assessed... #My two cents.. Wish u guys all the best

but who knows if other batches will also be invited later?

I wish all those going to FIRS interview a resounding success, please help us find out if other batches will still be invited and when? Don't also forget to intimate us here of all that transpired during the interview...... Best of luck guys !

smile44:

chaffman:

yeeh, that is the long awaited mails, i guess its in batches, so let everyone calm down and chill, others TS invites will still roll in

frontlinePM:
House Good Morning,

I have patiently been following this FIRS job trend for almost a year now, thank God people have started receiving calls. My sister also applied last year and she got call on Monday to report at a destination in Lagos on Tuesday for an interview with two copies of her CV, Bin no, n any means of identification.

In other to verified her claim, I decided to call a friend who I had known during my dealing with FIRS who later confirm the process and the call my sister got is not "genuine". That make me curious, I tried more and discovered that those that are been calling are truly been invited by FIRS and interview or screening has been scheduled for next week.

My Observations : This is done on merit, connection and luck. If you find yourself at FIRS next week, let me say congratulations in advance.


My Question: My sister is still at dilemma on which post she applied for as a Chattered Accountant, with B.Sc n work experience.
Is the interview going to be oral, written or CBT.

from observation, it is most likely going to be oral interview, congrat to her once again, let her acquaint her self with tax fundamentals.

let relax guys, i guess more TS mails will drop before end of today.

meanwhile, those that claim they have gotten theirs should paste
the content for others to see..............it beleive all these will end
in praise.

@ all, please share your testimony as soon as you receive your call invite
so as to boost the confidence of those still awaiting theirs.

For all those yet to receive their call......let not lose hope....tomorrow is another day, more testimonies of call will be shared on this thread.......and for those already called........start your preparation now.....wishing everyone of us the very best as we join the revenue tower....gud nyt all

congrat to all that have been called, for those yet to receive their call, let not give
up, i beleive the call will keep rolling in till friday. it will eventually end in praise

4oyrsExperience:
Please Lord hv mercy on me
This is my last hope

Someone pls pray 4 me

I jst ave to b called

Dont worry bro, it will be well, let keep praying and trusting God

chaffman:
