How to apply for NPC recruitment

NPC runs permanent-staff and ad-hoc census recruitment via nationalpopulation.gov.ng/recruitment. Ad-hoc recruitment is typically announced ahead of census or enumeration exercises.

Eligibility

  • Nigerian citizen
  • Minimum SSCE for ad-hoc enumeration (higher for permanent staff)
  • Age 18-35
  • Resident in the LGA you are applying to serve (ad-hoc)

Beware of recruitment scams. National Population Commission never collects application fees. If anyone asks you to pay for a form, slot, or "guaranteed placement", it is fraud. Report to EFCC on 0809 326 3322 and apply only through the official portal link above.
