A Bacolod City resident was among the top passers of the Civil Service Commission’s eligibility examinations through pen and paper test in the first semester this year.
The eligibility exams include the Career Service Exam, Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT) for Professional and Sub-Professional levels conducted on March 13 and June 19; and Fire Officer Exam (FOE), Penology Officer Exam (POE), Basic Competency on Local Treasury Exam (BCLTE), and CSE for Foreign Service Officer (CSE-FSO), all held on April 24.
Jumel Gamboa from Bacolod topped the POE with a rating of 91.28.
He was among the 385 of the 2,235 who passed the POE eligibility exam.
The CSC said the resulting eligibilities, which are the Fire Officer Eligibility and the Penology Officer Eligibility, are both second level eligibilities that are specific and appropriate for second level ranks in the fire protection, and jail management and penology services, respectively, and other functionally related services. The appropriateness of these eligibilities, though, does not include ranks under the Philippine National Police, the CSC clarified.*
