The Nigerian Customs Service recruitment has ended, and shortlisted applicants have received an email from the NCS to proceed to the next stage of the recruitment. According to NCS, the next phase of the recruitment will be an online CBT test, which is scheduled to take effect from 14th to 21st September 2025.
Applicants are advised to use a desktop computer or laptop for the test, as mobile phones are not ideal. It is also recommended to use a stable internet connection and ensure a quiet environment. Please note that if there is too much background noise, candidates may be logged out of the system, and once logged out, re-entry will not be possible.
