NSS Announces Short-Term Volunteer Jobs
The Management of the National Service Scheme (NSS) has announced it will be recruiting graduates who have undertaken the mandatory national service and the youth for short-term volunteer jobs.
In a statement, it said the recruitment will focus on various models including sanitation, teaching, agriculture, health and other sectors aligned with the Government’s efforts to promote environmental health, cleanliness, and sustainable development.
It is part of efforts to reduce the growing unemployment rate in the country.
“I am pleased to inform you that the Board and Management have initiated a recruitment drive for post-National Service graduates and the youth to serve as volunteers for a period of six (6) months.
“This decision was made considering the numerous applications received from the youth, as we aim to address the issue of youth unemployment in our country.”
Interested persons will have to be afforded the opportunity to apply at a yet-to-be-communicated date.
“An online application system will be operational soon on the Scheme’s website to facilitate the selection process. We encourage you to spread awareness about this opportunity among potential candidates in your region/district and provide necessary guidance and support throughout the application process.”
“Your cooperation and support in this initiative are highly appreciated, as we work towards empowering our youth and contributing to the overall growth and development of our country,” it added.
