Our team conducted a spot check, which discovered that applicants were only allowed to make two selections.
This was despite the fact that the commission encouraged applicants to choose only one county.
In the section labelled “Edit my details,” the commission has included a new button labelled “Ethnicity.”
This page prompts all applicants to declare their tribe while they are changing their information in the recruitment portal.
Under the Careers link on the official website, tsc.go.ke, or at teachersonline.tsc.ke, online applications were required to be submitted by any and all individuals who were interested in the position.
