How to make an application

- There will be 3 interviews, each with a different group of people. At each stage, unsuccessful candidates will be told what happened. Unannounced on-site visits would be made to applicants from Ghana.
- Only after their results have been checked, they have been interviewed 3 times, and, in the case of Ghanaian applicants, they have been visited, will the successful applicants get a letter.
- At no point in this process are any charges, fees, facilitation, agents, or middlemen needed.
- Any applicant who gives false information or tries to influence the process by lying or giving false information will be disqualified and recommended for dismissal.
- The Terminal Selection Committee’s decisions are the only ones that matter. Applicant’s phone numbers, Skype IDs, and email addresses should always be active so they can get important information about their applications.
