The county government has set May 6, 2026, as the deadline for all applications, emphasizing that only submissions made through the official portal will be considered.
Warning against fraudsters
As the recruitment process begins, the County Public Service Board has issued a strong warning to applicants to remain vigilant against fraudsters.
The board reiterated its zero-tolerance policy on corruption and cautioned against individuals who may solicit money in exchange for promises of securing employment.
“We caution applicants not to fall victim to fraudsters and impersonators who solicit for money with a promise of influencing the outcome,” the notice stated.
Authorities further clarified that all official communication will be conducted through verified county channels, urging the public to report any suspicious activity to law enforcement agencies.
