Guys any update as regards the recruitment?

Most likely next week.
That's what I am told though!
A smashing weekend to everyone!

cellin:
Happy New month pals. May we testify this February.

Ameeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!

tonyhoney:

Nah wah o.. Won't I resume for this job on time?km

The truth is that no one in this forum seems to know what is going on in this FIRS Recruitment and that's quite unfortunate.
ALL WHAT WE KEEP HEARING ARE SPECULATION/CONFABULATION.
The waiting period continue.

agongajoseph:
Only dreamers here......this thread shud b closed....Moderators pls act.

The truth is that no one seems to know what is going on in this NIS Recruitment and that's quite unfortunate.

siina:
you point exactly? Because I dont seem to understand why you are condemning yessir's post. I have a friend in firs also,he is a manager and he also confirmed to me last year december that vacancies were declared for each cadre. So technically if 15 posts is declared for officer 1 and and we have 100 officer 11 that are due for officer 1only 15 out of 100 will be promoted. Thats the latest in FIRS now

So what criteria or criterion will they use in selecting the 15 that would be promoted in your analogy, given that the 100 persons were recruited the same day, the same qualifications, years of service etc?
I may not know how things work in FIRS but I know that promotion, as and when due, is one of the rights and motivational incentives that workers enjoy in the civil service. They like to flaunt their seniority, �!

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!

Please, what is the role of the FIRS Board and Its Members in this Recruitment Exercise?

elyonjane:
Contacts are calling for unique ID. That's the latest. If there is additional info. We will be happy to have it. Like when the will start calling and things like that

Do you have an idea what the Account Number and BVN that were collected on the day of Interview were taken for?
Could it have been for further screening or was that Interview and Documentation at the same time?
If it was for payment of our Tp fare to and fro the interview venue, why haven't we received it till now?
Someone should help with further info, please.

chaffman:
hello everybody, som'in just hapun rai now.

What has happened, please?
Share it with us here.

elyonjane:
Pls tell us. What is happening. Stop increasing our blood pressure. It's already high

For real

otee42:
screning will commence on monday for the this batch...i pray let me be in the next batch..hopefully befor match..kai i done suffer

What screening and for which people?
Tops of the Week, Folks.

48noble:


hate speech

The FIRS 2016/2017 RECRUITMENT EXERCISE has nothing to do with the 2018 budget as it was properly captured and approved by the National Assembly in the 2017 Budget of the Organization.
The truth is, if we do not hear anything from them on or before Friday this week, then we should move on as they might have taken the ones they wanted.

Kitequincy:
What list are you talking about ?who are the persons manipulating the list or have hijacked the list?is it the list of people invited for interview or the list of persons pencilled down for the job that has been hijacked or manipulated?

Good questions.
We should not speculate unnecessarily in this forum in order not to create unwarranted tension and confusion, please.

draper:
where are those watsapp groupers claiming they know it all as if NIS is there personal recruitment. They kept exiting people on the group, thank God for nairaland. I pray we all meet in camp

Please, can you give more clarity and specifics to this cos I do not get you.
Thanks.

ocornels:

Pls how true is dis?

Very true bro.
It's what I saw!

Alexdon200089:


What do you except from people to say here again!we can only share info when there is an update to share!!!this is federal work and it won't be easy for update to be dropping from the sky, you can only help yourself and take your mind off it, when there is update you will get it, when the list is out you will know about it!!
This is 2018, make use of it judiciously

Very well so. Before over anxiety kills someone. �!

ocornels:
House.... Any update please

Folks, quoted below is the response of FIRS I stumbled on yesterday, to a question on their twitter page when someone asked them when 'The list of successful candidates in their last recruitment exercise/interview would be published'.

"We are not aware of a 'much anticipated list'. All successful applicants for the advertised vacancies have been contacted. We wish you Godspeed and Good luck"

I have moved on since I haven't been contacted.
Happy New Year to Everyone. Glad to have my rights restored here.

bisiofgod:
January! January!! January!!!

What's happening in January, please?
Compliments of the season though!

Hobowobo:
Merry Christmas

May the Peace and Blessings of Christmas be yours; And may the Coming Year be filled with Happiness.
Merry Christmas!

ghostwritter:

u ar right, but my source is soooo real. No one should pay anyone for any FIRS slot as u will only waste ur money coz there is no more slot for sale.

Do you have an idea about the number of persons that will be taken?

Yammama:
Not really buh d way tins r go in na January tins

Exactly my thoughts too. If we do not hear anything from them this week, then that will be January next year.
All the same, I pray God to see us through this endless wait, Amen!

Yammama:
Hafsat check ur pm

Guys, is there any further updates or info? Share it with us.

yfeey:


Over 2500 did the interview and only 700 plus will be given appointment letters. Interviews were conducted till 3 weeks ago.
Just be hopeful and hold your connection very well.

Please, do you know exactly when they will start calling people for offer of Appointment Letters?
I may travel out of this country next weekend for Xmas break.

Hafsat24:


Lol you keep using the word 'published' .

I think the list should be published for the sake of transparency, federal character and fairness!
I pray God to favour me with this opportunity!

funsho2016:
am sure some of u new very well they will be called while some see it as a surprise during the interview. Now, 700,000 applied less than 1000 was called for interview that shows some level of privilege you shd feel blessed someone is here now trying to make you feel bad and u give in that is the highest level of doubt.Be sure that u have one connection some how which is either u r aware or u pretend not to.for those that r not aware just calm down pray hard what happened on the interview will surely repeat itself on documentations and appointment.Remember "he who keepeth Israel neither sleep nor slumber" i am a conqueror

So when should we expect the list of successful candidates to be published?

kabosko:
From a reliable source this December we go hear something.
About not doing documentation that they will just give some people offer letters possible (this is 9ja) but still it would be for a few people. Connection for this country get levels especially for government jobs.
We shall all be victorious! Amen

Please, how many people have they finally settled at taking.?
I am confident that God will bless me with this job cos I need it.

obaloppelujo:
Who's saying slots has been shared already ? Haba ! Tell me where bureaucracy/nepotism/ inequality doesn't come to play ?
Even in school , some will write the exam and fail , some will pass and some who do not even show up for exam will pass and fail.
So , its an expectancy to cut corners in parastatals . But to say nairalander who partook in the interview wont get the job isnt true , you and i will be here to celebrate with them .
Infact ! A relative of mine who i once said on this thread , that he had his interview in lagos knows someone who knows someone, and what he told me 3days ago was positive . He's in a jubilant mood already cos he was told he might take few months just as the interview took to be recalled , and said he was told that large percent of the interviewed will get the job cos that seems to be the semi final stage.
So . Nairalander , we will celebrate on this thread for this feat of hardlabor .
Say no to cardiac arrest . Cool down cos iyanu ma sele .

So when are we expecting the list to be published?
This speculation will not help us

Hobowobo:
Happy New Month People

This is our month of Joy.

Happy New Month, Folks.
I believe God that this will be our December to Remember.
The list is most likely to be published this Month.
Remain Blessed!

Ebi4life:
I did the superintendent cadre screening yesterday in Delta State. It was well organised and successful. I was invited without any human connection, the God Almighty who is merciful and who shows favour to whomsoever He wills, showed me favour. The exam was not difficult, maths, English and current affairs. 10 questions in 15 minutes, objective questions.
We were about 100 that took part in the superintendent screening in Delta State. I went to the immigration office today, I discovered that those who came for the inspector cadre were very few about half of those who came for the superintendent cadre. I learnt they will likely call 30 or 40 persons out of the 100 for training. I strongly believe in God to help me make the final list. I have no human connection, but I have the heavenly connection. I have the God who ruleth in the affairs of men.

May God grant your heart desire according to your faith in Him.
Same faith I am having concerning the FIRS Recruitment.

ocornels:

Please house, does it mean they have taken all the ppl dat went for the interview and put down their bank account?

No body knows my brother.
Everyone is kept at suspense!

snookcg:
Just leaving the immigration office in Ondo State now. Surely didn't see more than 30 candidates or 40. Nigeria we hail thee

So did you get the Invite and are you done with your Physical Verification Exercise?
How was it?
Best of Luck!
