According to the statement, the recruitment exercise covers the Nigerian Correctional Service, Nigeria Immigration Service, Federal Fire Service, and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps.

Applicants were advised to visit the Board’s official recruitment portal  https://recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng from Thursday, October 30, 2025, to confirm if they have been shortlisted for the next stage and to check details of their CBT centres.

“Shortlisted candidates are to take note of the venue, date, and time scheduled for their Computer-Based Test,” the statement added.
