Recruitment Guidelines
TSC emphasized adherence to its 2024/2025 recruitment guidelines. Shortlisted candidates must present original academic and professional certificates.

The Commission cautioned applicants against fraudsters demanding payment for recruitment assistance, reiterating that the process is free.
