On God, so nobody knows when they'll start screening. I've been shouting it's March, but march is going half month soon

At this point, I don't even care when they will start calling people for screening, my prayer is it should favour us all, especially we wer no get connect. Because if I put my mind there, I will be doing myself more harm then good.

Good evening everyone here, Omo make I talk am here before over thinking go kpai me.
Sometimes when I see some comments here of people who seek advice on which offer to accept, not just any offer ooo, BIG BIG offers, my heart go first beat one kain way. A small pinch of jealousy go first hold me, I will be like God, as you do this person own, do my own too Naa(I know say Him go do am, but I no know when). And sometimes I just see it as an affirmation to my belief that if I don't relent I will get to the top, I PRAY I do. At least as i never get there yet, make i dey run race on my level for now, even that one sef, to get am hard like say you wan break olumo rock with a blade. One kain tension go hold you when you remember your age and you be like omoo,I don dey clock 30 years, your mind don dey cut because if you say you wan dey backdate your age, the expenses and stress go first weak you, to top it all, you no even sure if you will get the work, if you no get am, e go pain you. Omo see Frustration.
No man feels really HAPPY not until he's got what he WANTS, I hope and pray each one of us is granted our heart desires.
And please to the goodness of everyone here, whoever has any information of opportunities of any kind, please share with us. It may be nothing to you but to some of us here, it means a lot. The jobs some of you see as "God forbid" kind of job Na some of us Alhamdullillah" kind of job.
By the way, FEDERAL COLLEGE OF EDUCATION OYO(Special) is recruiting for both academic and non academic staffs.
The way I'm just applying for different jobs ehnn, I hope I don't go and apply for the post of GCFR of the nation unknowingly, I've applied for jobs sotey anytime I come across any job advert, my default mode is to apply first, confirm later.LOL.
And for CDCFIB recruitment, I just pray whenever they will release the shortlist, candidates whose only hope of getting Fed Gov job is through CDCFIB should constitute higher percentage of those to be recruited. Make poor man pikin sef rejoice, I wan dey see testimonies of I got so so job without knowing anybody, me self go follow share the testimony...

Hi everyone,

CDCFIB CBT Exam 2025: Can You Use Calculator, Phone, Paper? 20 Real FAQs Answered

If you are preparing for the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) recruitment, you probably have dozens of questions running through your mind.

I have been there, the anxiety about exam formats, confusion about requirements, and that nagging worry about whether you're truly prepared.

After speaking with numerous successful candidates and going through official guidelines, We have compiled this detailed guide to answer every question you might have about the CDCFIB CBT exams, screening process, and training.

What You Need to Know About the CBT Examination Format

Writing Your Exam From Home: The Technical Side

The 2025 recruitment cycle introduced something different ,a live, proctored CBT exam you'll take from home. Sounds convenient, right? But it comes with its own challenges.

Here's something that worried me when I first heard about it: How exactly do you solve math problems when you can't look away from your screen?

The good news? The exam platform includes a built-in calculator. You will find it right there on your screen, so you won't need to pull out your phone calculator or, heaven forbid, try mental math for everything.

That been said, it is  recommended you practice with an on-screen calculator before exam day. The last thing you want is fumbling with an unfamiliar tool during your actual test.

Can I Use Plain Paper or Calculator During the CBT Exam?

Now, about that plain paper question everyone keeps asking , can you use it for rough work? Here's the reality: with AI proctoring watching your every move, using external materials might trigger red flags. The system monitors eye movement, detects unauthorized persons in your space, and picks up on unusual activities.

Does this mean you're stuck doing everything in your head? Not necessarily. Some exam formats allow digital scratch pads or note-taking areas within the platform itself. Your best bet? Wait for the specific instructions that'll come with your exam invitation.

Choosing the Right Device for Your Exam

You've got options here, and honestly, each has its pros and cons.

Desktop computers offer the most stability. There's something reassuring about that fixed setup, no battery anxiety, larger screen, and typically more reliable processing power.

Laptops give you flexibility in choosing your exam location. Just make sure you are fully charged or have reliable power access. I have heard horror stories of candidates whose laptops died mid-exam because they relied solely on battery.

Smartphones work too, though I'd recommend them only if you have a decent screen size. Squinting at questions on a small screen for 90 minutes? That's a recipe for eye strain and mistakes.

Whatever device you choose, test these beforehand:

Internet speed (you will want at least 2Mbps consistently)
Camera functionality
Microphone clarity
Browser compatibility
Available storage space
Managing Distractions During Your Exam

Let me tell you about the time a candidate told me their exam was interrupted by a WhatsApp video call from their mom. Thirty seconds of distraction, and the AI system flagged them for suspicious activity.

You can absolutely minimize these risks. Here's what works:

Switch on "Do Not Disturb" mode before you even log into the exam portal. Better yet, if you're using WiFi, you might consider removing your SIM card entirely. Yes, I'm serious. Those few minutes of complete focus could make the difference between passing and failing.

Tell your family members about your exam schedule. Put a "Do Not Disturb" sign on your door if you need to. Close every application except your exam browser. These small steps compound into significant advantages.

Overview of Your Exam Credentials
When Your Exam Number Doesn't Match Your Application Code

This confused me initially too. You apply with one reference number, then receive a completely different exam code. Should you panic?

Absolutely not.

Think of it this way: your application reference code got you into the system. Your exam number is your unique identifier for the test itself. Even if someone else has a similar-looking number (which is incredibly unlikely), your complete profile( agency, date, time, cadre)  creates a combination that's yours alone.

The system won't mix you up with anyone else. Trust the process.

Finding the Actual Exam Portal

Here's something that frustrates many candidates: "Where exactly do I take this exam?"

The portal link isn't published publicly for security reasons. Instead, it gets sent directly to shortlisted candidates via email, typically 24 to 48 hours before the scheduled exam date.

Check your email obsessively during this period. And don't forget to look in your spam folder, recruitment emails sometimes end up there.

Keep your exam number and registration details handy. You'll need them to log in, and scrambling to find them when the clock's ticking isn't fun.

Scoring and Cut-Off Marks: What You Actually Need

The Truth About CDCFIB Cut-Off Marks

Everyone wants to know the magic number. What score guarantees you'll move forward?

The honest answer? It varies. The cut-off isn't fixed because it depends on several factors:

Which agency you applied to (Immigration typically has higher standards)
Your chosen cadre
Total number of applicants that year
Available positions

From what I've gathered through various recruitment cycles, cut-offs generally fall between. See more

Hello fam,

It’s been a while I dropped a post here, but I’ve been reading and following everyone’s updates.

Big thank you to everyone who keep sharing updates here. You’re truly helping us stay informed and hopeful. You’re the real MVPs! 🙏💙


Big shoutout to everyone still pushing and hoping for better opportunities 🙏. Don’t lose faith, your time is coming, my time is coming. Keep checking, keep applying, and keep believing. One day, the right door will open. We move! 💪🔥

Dear Mr. President,
As a young Nigerian struggling with unemployment, I’m eager to start a small business in commercial transport to earn a living. But I can’t begin because I don’t have a mini bus, and the bank requires a 30% deposit before giving a loan, which I can’t afford.

I don’t want handouts, Sir, just a fair chance to work. Please make it easier for people like me to access small business or transport loans without impossible conditions.

If anyone reading this can also guide or support me in getting a mini bus, I’ll deeply appreciate it. I just want to work and contribute to our country’s growth. 🇳🇬 Thank you

Heavenly Father,
I thank You for opening new doors of opportunity in my region.
As this new agency is being established, I place my faith in You that my name will be among those chosen to serve there.
Let Your divine favor speak for me where my voice cannot reach.
Prepare me with the right skills, the right attitude, and the right timing.
I declare that what You have ordained for me will not pass me by.
I receive this job in faith, believing that You are working all things for my good.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Greetings to all the elders in the house

Please between MOFI and NDIC, which is more preferable to work?

Sirtas007:
Pls does anybody has insight on how much ndic pay monthly for starters ? Thanks

Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation. Performance annual allowance of about

AliEzeOlu:
Not really, but I guess it might happen before the year runs out because the newly established ones are funded in this year's budget. I wonder why Their board members aren't yet inaugurated so they can commence work immediately.

But this is Nigeria, where anything is possible.

Noted.
Thank you

AliEzeOlu:
They're all funded bro. North Central Development Commission NCDC and South South Development Commission both have N140 billion each in the 2025 appropriations. However, this is august and both of them have yet to commence operations.

Thanks for the info. Do you happen to know if South South Development Commissions has started receiving application letters for employment yet?
