The Civil Service Commission Regional Office VIII (CSC RO VIII) has announced the schedule and details for the 2023 Career Service Examination, colloquially known as the Civil Service Exam, according to Examination Announcement No. 003, s. 2023.
The examination, which includes the Professional and Subprofessional Levels, is slated for August 20, 2023. The application period will commence on May 22, 2023, and close on June 21, 2023. A fee of Five Hundred Pesos (P500.00) applies to each applicant.
CSC will accept applications on a first-come, first-served basis. The application period may end before the scheduled deadline if the target number of applicants is achieved earlier.
The Career Service Examination is an essential process that forms the Register of Eligibles (RoE), a reference list used for certification and appointment to first and second-level positions in the civil service. It also serves as a source of potential candidates for private-sector employment.
To be eligible for the exam, applicants must satisfy several conditions. They must be Filipino citizens, at least 18 years old on the date of application, have good moral character, and must not have taken the same level of the Career Service Examination within the last three months.
The application process is strictly online and operates on a first-come-first-serve basis. Applicants are encouraged to create an account at https://ocseas.csc.gov.ph/home before May 22, 2023, to mitigate potential server congestion. After account activation, applicants can update their profiles and begin the application process.
From 8:00 a.m. on May 22, 2023, applicants can log in to their accounts, select their preferred exam type and test center, and follow additional steps to complete their application. This includes reading and adhering to the admission and application requirements, providing personal data, and choosing the appropriate CSC Field Office for application submission.
CSC encourages all prospective examinees to stay updated on the process to ensure successful application for the 2023 Career Service Examination. —iTacloban
