The first Career Service Examination – Pen and Paper Test of the Civil Service Commission for 2017 will be conducted on March 12
The Civil Service Commission (CSC) announced on January 5, Thursday, that the deadline for the submission of applications for the first Career Service Examination – Pen and Paper Test for 2017 has been extended.
The deadline for the CSE-PPT scheduled on March 12, 2017 was originally set on January 13 but it has been extended to January 20 or a week later.
The Civil Service Commission reminds the interested individuals to file their applications ahead of deadline because the acceptance of application is on a first-come, first-served basis.
The Commission also advised that the application process shall be closed an time before the deadline if the regional or field offices of the Civil Service Commission has already reached the target number of applicants.
The Civil Services examinations are open to all Filipino citizens, regardless of educational attainment, aging at least 18 years old at the time of filing of application, and have not taken the same level of examination within three months before the date of examination.
