CDCFIB Releases Important Update for Shortlisted Candidates on Screening

The Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) has issued a new update for applicants who participated in its recent recruitment exercise. According to the announcement, all shortlisted candidates must take immediate action by logging into the official CDCFIB recruitment portal to confirm their status and prepare for the next stage of the process.

Portal Opens for Shortlisted Applicants

Beginning Monday, 8th December 2025, and running through 10th December 2025, applicants who made the shortlist are required to:

• Access the official portal: recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng
• Check their recruitment dashboard
• Confirm whether they have been shortlisted
• Choose their preferred screening date and centre

This step is important because it determines a candidate’s schedule and location for the upcoming physical verification exercise.

Next Stage: Physical Screening and Document Verification

Shortlisted applicants will participate in a physical screening and document review that will take place across all states of the federation, including the Federal Capital Territory. Candidates should begin preparing all required documents and ensure they are ready for inspection on their chosen screening date.

Deadline for Completion

The Nigerian Correctional Service advises all candidates to complete their verification and screening selection between 8th and 10th December 2025. Missing this window may affect a candidate’s ability to attend the screening exercise.

Official Communication

All updates, instructions, and notifications for this stage of the recruitment will be issued only through the official CDCFIB portal. Applicants are warned not to rely on social media rumours or unverified sources.

Candidates Encouraged to Act Early

Applicants are urged to log in early, confirm their information, and secure their preferred screening date. This will help reduce last-minute challenges and ensure a smooth verification process.

For those who have been shortlisted, this is a crucial step toward advancing in the recruitment process. Stay alert and keep checking the official portal for accurate updates.
