Physics/Electronics is related to principles of electricity. Apparently you must have done courses on electrical circuit theory. Just find a way to state that you're familiar with basics of electricity and you'll be good.
Best of luck in your interview.

Jigawa, Kaduna

Mobilising for Development (M4D) is a six-year DFID Nigeria funded Local Governance programme currently being implemented in 9 focal LGAs across 3 northern Nigeria states of Jigawa, Kaduna and Kano. The programme’s expected outcome is: ‘Policy makers and service providers are more responsive and accountable to citizens' better articulated demands and entitlements, especially adolescent girls (AG) and people with disability (PWD). The programme works on both demand and supply-side governance reform: on the demand-side, it aims to strengthen citizens’ capacity to influence development, while on the supply-side, it aims to support LGAs’ ability to respond to citizens’ demand, whether it is in the form of responding to policy changes or request for improved service delivery.

Job Title: Community Development and Outreach Officers (CDOO)

Innovation:

Support the identification of potential new and better-fit approaches that can be developed and piloted at local level
Support specific innovative projects of M4D within LGAs
General - This includes:

Support the generation of data and general information at LGA level
Map and engage relevant stakeholders both formal and informal and maintain strong networks across demand-supply lines
Act as local representatives of M4D, both communicating the programme clearly and providing feedback into M4D
Provide technical assistance as directed by the SPM and LGC

The minimum qualification required is a diploma but degree is desirable and with at least 1 year of relevant working experience.

Dear OP who is a lady. #smiles u are not wrong to b searching for this job. Take it easy. Have u got a good phone. Make clear videos about what u can do in u field physics/electronics, train other people in the beads making u have learnt, by subsidizing it and choosing to teach many at once. For a lady the hustle can b tough, that steady income helps u get organised. use social media to ur advantage e. g advertise ur beads.. see I made 2:1 I still dey search too. Forget opening file it matters not. I just dnt know there ought to b a way we youths can unite and turn around our fates.... good luck.

it is well. I appreciate!

Brightgem:
U too park well. He expressed himself clearly wetin come be the rude talk. If u no get advice leave am now, why bully. Talk with fairness...

Thanks dear. You even have time to answer him. when I see posts like that, I'd rather pass. Not everyone is worth one's time

mailmalc:
The fed civil service workers are terrible people. I don't blame them, they will play with your destiny. When I did the process 2012, it was quite frustrating, I had to resort to pulling strings with certain connections.

Don't believe the hype bro, get a skill, develop over the next few years...invest in your future that way. if you studied a professional course then look for a small private company, offer to work for free (intern).

Don't make the mistake of being too desperate, you will find your path

Thank you. Am a lady, I studied physics and electronics. I've acquired a skill in bead making. But the income flow isn't consistent, cos it's not all the time I get customers. Am really in need of a job now

Relecool:
kkk did u pay any amount of money to get this file number,,did they promise you any job, where u taken to any form of capturing...xplain further I really wish to help,regards.

I didnt pay. Out of my desire to get a job with the federal government, I made enquiries and was told the first step is getting a file number which I've not been able to get since I've been trying

Bimpe29:
Staff in the office of the Commissioner in charge of your state(Ondo) are not serious. It is nothing special to obtain form for onward registration at Federal Civil Service Commission. It is one of the simplest and easiest things to do by job seekers or their proxy.
However, that's not to say, one must know someone to get the job. Acquisition of the so called form does not hold water.
My advice is for you to find out who is the Commissioner representing your state, or try any person who might have significant influence on how to get your dream Federal Job.
Such a job is not advertised nor is it gotten on a platter of gold.
One must be a prayer warrior and putting all required efforts.
I wish you best of the luck.

thank you. The reason am bothered about it that much is because when I told my ex boss at the place I served about my job search, the first thing he asked me was if I had opened a file with the federal civil service commission. N.B I served at a federal parastatal

Ugogabriel:
my brother I will advice contained you to stop bothering yourself with that file number, it doesn't guarantee your employment. I did that in 2013 and I had 2 file number but till today nothing good has came out from there. am now working as a state civil servant wit the legislature. if you don't know anybody you are just opening files for rats

funny!@opening files for rats. Please how did you get your state govt job? Btw am not a guy, am a lady. Thanks

JOESAJIB:
Op, thank them for saving you the stress of opening file because it's not necessary. Those who get Govt jobs these days don't even go Fed civil serv comm. If you really need govt job, you need strong connection. That's all.

Thanks. But even if I have someone that'll help me get a govt job, won't they ask for my file number?

Teeworld13:
lol, OP, sorry ooo, I opened a file (hard copy) with them since November 2010 after my NYSC and in 2013 i registered online. I have not been contacted by them since 2010 till date. Infact I visited the office last week thursday and most of the offices were locked. Between 2010 till date, I've been there for like 5 times without seeing the commissioner...as earlier advised, learn a skill or join any private organisation. Most importantly, pray for God's directions. All the best!

Thanks for your advice. I've learnt a skill already, that's what am managing myself with right now, but it's not everytime one gets customers that needs my services. Getting a job where I'll have constant pay is what am trying to do now, I've applied at various firms too. Praying God'll pick up my call soon.

opeyemi361:
That's the new process OP, for Ondo state, you will register at Federal Civil Service Commission and they expect you to fill it online. But to be honest, the process is "Man know Man"

I've checked online. There's no provision for that on their site.

umar745:
This forum is now overflowing with idiots. If you can't help or give him advice why comment at all?

Anyways OP go there and try to initiate the whole process again maybe they would have changed their ways, else pick another state, I think its 3-4 state per office so you'll have to pick a state quite far from the present state you are using.

you can only register with your state of origin office, that's the procedure. Each state has their respective offices in the fcsc . Am from Ondo state!

Sorry for the long epistle in advance, but I have to write this, who knows? I might get help..
I finished my youth service July 2015. At the time I finished, I didn't know anything about registering with the civil service commission to get a file number to aid employment with the Federal government but somehow, I later got to know towards end of last year, that was around November or so.
So, I went to the federal civil service commission at abuja and was directed to my state office (Ondo), on getting there, they asked to see my original credentials and I showed them all, after that they gave me a list to write my name, course of study and phone number. After that, I now asked them what is next? They said that was all.. I then told them that was not the orientation I got before coming. People that have done it in the past told me i'll be given a form to fill after which a file will be opened for me and I'll be given a file number. Immediately, they countered me, they said they no longer do such. That they've stopped the manual process that I should check their website and register there. So, I went home that day, hoping to register at their site when I get home. On getting home, I realised there was nothing like that on their site, it was more like they just deceived me. I was really pained cos I didnt have a job, had to collect tfare from my parents to go there. That one passed, some months later, my friends from other states said they registered successfully and were given file numbers, I was angry.. I decided to go back there and on getting there, I realised it's the same thing they're still doing, so I met a woman in another state and explained myself to her, she told me to submit my credentials with her that she would help me, that was early April o. I've been calling her since then to follow up, she's been telling me stories. Now, she has stopped picking her calls. Please I need help, I really need this file number cos I wish to work with the federal government and I heard its a requirement, pls what can I do? Why has our country deteriorate this much, that you need to know someone to do the simplest things. Sincerely am fed up cos am sure some other people from same state as mine that know people would have gotten their numbers by now
