The Nigeria Customs Service has announced that candidates shortlisted for its Superintendent cadre recruitment will take part in a Pre-Test exercise on Monday, September 22, 2025, at 3:00 p.m.

The Service disclosed this in a statement released on its official 𝕏 handle on Thursday.

According to Customs, the Pre-Test is meant to help applicants familiarise themselves with the platform before the main Computer-Based Test.

The statement read, “The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) wishes to notify all invited applicants of the Superintendent cadre that a Pre-Test exercise will be held on Monday, 22nd September 2025 at 3:00 pm. Applicants of Inspectorate and Assistant cadres will be contacted subsequently for their Pre-Test exercise.”

The Service explained that a dedicated link will be sent to all shortlisted candidates to complete their log-in procedures.

It added, “The objective of the Pre-Test is to allow applicants familiarise themselves with the system ahead of the actual Computer-Based Test. Applicants are to take note of the following: Upon signing in, candidates will be required to complete facial verification and carefully read the instructions 30 minutes before the commencement of the Pre-Test. After the 30 minutes allocated for log-in procedures, candidates must click on the START button to commence the Pre-Test.”

Customs urged applicants to strictly adhere to the guidelines.

It will be recalled that the Service had earlier invited 286,697 applicants to sit a computer-based test for 3,927 advertised vacancies across the Superintendent, Inspectorate and Customs Assistant cadres.

In a statement signed by its National Public Relations Officer, Abdullahi Maiwada, last Wednesday, the NCS clarified that candidates who applied for the Superintendent Cadre (Level 8) would also sit for an additional CBT in the next phase of the recruitment exercise.
