PSC: Public Service Commission news, jobs and reform updates

PSC drives who gets hired, promoted, or disciplined in government. If you care about public jobs, transparency, or how services reach people, this tag groups the most relevant updates in one place. You’ll find stories on recruitment drives, policy changes, high-profile hearings, and audit outcomes that shape public service across African countries.

What we cover under PSC

We track five clear areas so you can find what matters fast. First, job notices and recruitment exams — dates, eligibility, and tips to apply. Second, appointment news — who’s moving into top public roles and why it matters. Third, disciplinary cases and probes — when PSCs investigate misconduct or misuse of public funds. Fourth, policy and reform — rules that change hiring, promotion, or ethics for civil servants. Fifth, service delivery impact — how PSC decisions affect schools, hospitals, and local government work.

How to use this tag and stay informed

Want only job alerts? Use the search box on this tag and add keywords like “recruitment”, “application” or the country name. Bookmark this page if you follow a hiring cycle — you’ll catch late notices that outsiders miss. Sign up for our newsletter or set an RSS alert to get PSC updates in your inbox. For urgent posts, follow our social channels where we share breaking appointment and probe news as it happens.

When reading a PSC story, check two things: the official source (commission notice, gazette or ministry release) and quoted dates. PSC announcements often carry strict deadlines and specific document requirements. Missing one form or the wrong certification can disqualify an otherwise strong candidate.

If you’re a civil servant or job seeker, use our guides to prepare. We publish practical content — what documents you need, how selection panels work, and sample interview questions from past recruitments. For campaigners and watchdogs, our coverage highlights transparency gaps and public responses so you can follow accountability processes.

Finally, PSC news often links to wider stories: budget decisions, sector reforms, or major service failures. We connect those dots so you see how a single appointment or rule change affects everyday services. If you want notifications on specific countries or topics, use the filter tools on this page and save your preferences.

Bookmark the PSC tag, set alerts, and check back regularly for timely job notices, probe updates, and policy changes that affect public service across Africa. You’ll get quick, practical updates without the jargon — just what you need to act or follow up.
