who is feeding u with lies? am sure u have not gone to fcsc to see 4 urself APLs er typed according to the documented files, don't be deceived, xcept u have another way (connection) otherwise, fcsc documentation is a prerequisite
OK boas I don't wanna argue, but yahmaid04 said the same thing as well. and yes I was at FCSC and I was told by a staff in my commissioners office.
Am not saying the documentation is not important, but if you made it to the list of successful candidates your APL will be typed and you can do the documentation even on the of receiving the letter.
Why do you think most commissioners never took the documentation serious?
Re: Federal Civil Service 2016 Recruitment by motivationspika(m): 7:52am On Aug 11, 2017
You see, before now, documentation use to come only after appointment letters have been issued. This year's case is different. They have their reasons. But it doesn't mean because someone wasn't called for documentation, he/she won't be issued appointment letters supposing his/her name was officially shortlisted for the job originally.Many people that were interviewed may have to find their way to Wuse Zone 3 to see if their appointment letters are also there by the time appointment letters start rolling in officially, whether you were initially called or not.Mark my words

Erenje documentation is important yes but trust me many will do it after APL is issued to them. It is the same wether you do it now or later. They will be typing letters with reference to list of successful candidates.

I have not said one can't get apl without documentation, one can also document after collection of apl, what am against is 4 one to say documentation is not important! and people were called from different parts of Nigeria (some people even came from abroad) to do it!

You see, With a staff of the Commission there, it can be a little easier; otherwise, you may have to make a personal visit.In times like these, it can be very difficult to see who will do any checking for you. The staffers there kind of mark peoples faces so that once you check yours, it can be kind of pretty difficult to be visiting the Commission once in a while in the name of checking for others. I was at the office of the Director of Recruitment to check for one guy. When i went there another day for a similar attempt, one of the staffers spotted me and asked why i was there again. I smiled. Though she checked for me after a long wait, she told me they won't entertain that kind of idea anymore. In all, going there for whatever check is 50-50 but beautiful stories will still be shared by many here. Only time will tell.

I appreciate your point but you are completely wrong in saying "That can only be possible if those "left in America" are there illegally and/or lack the credentials to work." I finished high school, A Levels in the UK with good results, and a first degree in Canada with a First Class and years of significant work experience gained while I was studying. However, I ended up as a customer service banking manager earning $2k/month which came up to little left in my bank account after paying monthly bills. I wanted more. I felt I deserved better. I was 22 at the time. I'm 37 now. I returned to Nigeria to work in the Federal Government. Initially, the compensation was little, yes. I have worked within various capacities within government and due to my field of work, I have worked on many international assignments with multilateral organizations like ECOWAS, UN etc. Doing so, we are paid several thousand dollars monthly by such bodies while still being paid our salaries and benefits by the Nigerian government. I don't pay for accommodation or many other bills while on assignment. So I end up saving a huge amount compared to being in Canada. As such, I have been able to purchase an apartment in Scarborough, near Toronto...WHILE WORKING IN NIGERIA.

I would have bought an apartment while working in Canada but could I have gotten as good and many opportunities while in the fiercely competitive employment sector in Canada? Maybe...However, what is indisputable is that I got this in NIGERIA. I didn't want to work in a bank. I studied Economics and so my friends thought it was still applicable. But I wanted to work within the field of International Economics i.e development, Int trade etc. In Canada, even with a Master's degree it is very difficult to get into the UN. I'm à civil servant here but I didn't need to be corrupt to get these opportunities here. I have since gone on to get higher degrees and further develop myself because even though people like to think the civil service is full of ineptitude​, there are a number of very competent and highly intelligent people within it. It may even surprise you to know that, while on assignment, I've met even people in the Nigerian Police Force on assignment also. My first encounter was in Haiti a few years ago. Not soldiers o...policemen. A couple of them let me know that they were sent to L'institut Français In Abuja to study french to A2 level before being​ sent to Haiti because they had no prior knowledge of French. They added that the Force sends officers to various countries where the UN has requested their presence. Yet how many of you know that such opportunities exist within the Police Force??

Like I always say, yes, Nigeria has many flaws but I have come to realize that it also has many gems hidden within it, including the civil service. It really boils down to individual foresight and priorities. So, you guys should stop dismissing everything you hear because you feel the salary is too small for anybody, moreso those in the US, Canada,UK etc to come back for. I have said this several times here, there are a lot of legitimate opportunities within Government. It is all up to you if you want to find them out, pursue them and make your own story different from the picture that has been painted of "ministry" workers. Paint your own picture! Inform yourselves! Not everybody goes to the ministry to sleep and eat groundnut.

For humour sake, i'll assume you work with Foreign Affairs and from estimation, you haven't attained the level of director. That said, I dont see how you could have acquired so much to the extent of owning a house in North America even if you save every dime of your various estacodes... Even those at directorate level cant boast of what you wrote up there (without corrupt practices and double dealings) because the civil service is not designed to make you rich but somewhat comfortable! To achieve A2 in Alliance Francaise costs very little and a short time if you aint dumb so that point aint shit... and what's more, it is open and readily available to the general public.

I understand you might be some over-optimist Nigerian seeing everything in fantastic perfection from one corner of your room or you just some paid government troll trying to spin government in bright light with the cheesy stuffs you posted now and infact, on all your posts on nairaland which "incidentally" happens to be only on this thread (no offence intended).

I am not about the opposite either but prefer to face the reality and call a spade a spade. Discerning Nigerians know the truth and it is not about politics... wishing the government well is in all of our best interests. Things are not totally bad but not as upbeat and rosy as you've painted it. Stay realistic!

I appreciate your point but you are completely wrong in saying "That can only be possible if those "left in America" are there illegally and/or lack the credentials to work." I finished high school, A Levels in the UK with good results, and a first degree in Canada with a First Class and years of significant work experience gained while I was studying. However, I ended up as a customer service banking manager earning $2k/month which came up to little left in my bank account after paying monthly bills. I wanted more. I felt I deserved better. I was 22 at the time. I'm 37 now. I returned to Nigeria to work in the Federal Government. Initially, the compensation was little, yes. I have worked within various capacities within government and due to my field of work, I have worked on many international assignments with multilateral organizations like ECOWAS, UN etc. Doing so, we are paid several thousand dollars monthly by such bodies while still being paid our salaries and benefits by the Nigerian government. I don't pay for accommodation or many other bills while on assignment. So I end up saving a huge amount compared to being in Canada. As such, I have been able to purchase an apartment in Scarborough, near Toronto...WHILE WORKING IN NIGERIA.

I would have bought an apartment while working in Canada but could I have gotten as good and many opportunities while in the fiercely competitive employment sector in Canada? Maybe...However, what is indisputable is that I got this in NIGERIA. I didn't want to work in a bank. I studied Economics and so my friends thought it was still applicable. But I wanted to work within the field of International Economics i.e development, Int trade etc. In Canada, even with a Master's degree it is very difficult to get into the UN. I'm à civil servant here but I didn't need to be corrupt to get these opportunities here. I have since gone on to get higher degrees and further develop myself because even though people like to think the civil service is full of ineptitude​, there are a number of very competent and highly intelligent people within it. It may even surprise you to know that, while on assignment, I've met even people in the Nigerian Police Force on assignment also. My first encounter was in Haiti a few years ago. Not soldiers o...policemen. A couple of them let me know that they were sent to L'institut Français In Abuja to study french to A2 level before being​ sent to Haiti because they had no prior knowledge of French. They added that the Force sends officers to various countries where the UN has requested their presence. Yet how many of you know that such opportunities exist within the Police Force??

Like I always say, yes, Nigeria has many flaws but I have come to realize that it also has many gems hidden within it, including the civil service. It really boils down to individual foresight and priorities. So, you guys should stop dismissing everything you hear because you feel the salary is too small for anybody, moreso those in the US, Canada,UK etc to come back for. I have said this several times here, there are a lot of legitimate opportunities within Government. It is all up to you if you want to find them out, pursue them and make your own story different from the picture that has been painted of "ministry" workers. Paint your own picture! Inform yourselves! Not everybody goes to the ministry to sleep and eat groundnut.
