The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has announced that its recruitment portal will close on Friday, November 7, 2025.
Shortlisted applicants will take an online test between Wednesday, November 12 and Wednesday, November 19, 2025.
In a statement signed by Maj. Gen. (Rtd.) A.M. Jibril, Secretary of the Board, and dated November 4, 2025, CDCFIB explained that all recruitment tests will now be conducted exclusively online, instead of the previous computer-based test (CBT) held at physical centres.
The Board said that anyone who had chosen a physical CBT centre earlier should log back into the recruitment portal (recruitment.cdcfib.gov.ng) to pick a new online test date and time. The link for the test will be made available on Tuesday, November 11, 2025.
Applicants are advised to make sure they have a strong internet connection and the right digital devices before the test begins.
“Applicants should carefully follow the instructions on their examination slip to avoid disqualification,” the statement added.
The CDCFIB assured the public that the recruitment process would remain transparent, fair, and efficient.

“The Board is fully committed to ensuring a smooth and transparent recruitment exercise,” said Maj. Gen. Jibril.
