Although the new online system encountered some technical challenges initially with many applicants having difficulties accessing the forms, this year\u2019s recruitment process has largely been devoid of the problems seen in previous years.<\/p>\n
3,000 people to be recruited<\/strong><\/p>\n The Interior Ministry announced that about 3,000 people are set to be recruited by Ghana\u2019s security agencies\u00a0this year.<\/p>\n According to the deputy minister, James Agalga, the transparency of the recruitment process has improved significantly with the introduction of the online system.<\/p>\n \u201cNot too long ago, the police administration advertised in order to ensure that criminals don\u2019t take advantage of the recruitment exercise. Qualified applicants must go on the internet and apply online,\u201d Agalga said.<\/p>\n \u201cYou don\u2019t need middlemen to apply and if someone comes to you and demands cash in order to aid you go through the process, immediately you should know the person is a criminal and wants to defraud you. The process is very transparent. You don\u2019t need anybody\u2019s intervention. If you are eligible you will be selected.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By: Edwin Kwakofi\/citifmonline.com\/Ghana<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A total of two thousand, four hundred and twenty (2,420) people who applied for recruitment into the Ghana Police Service turned up for the second stage of the recruitment process in the Brong Ahafo Region.
