Meanwhile, the CSC Examination, Recruitment, and Placement Office have recommended that successful candidates personally claim their Certification of Eligibility (CoE), printed on CSC letterhead and issued at no cost, from the relevant CSC Regional Office (RO) or Field Office (FO) starting 13 June 2024. They are further advised to verify the availability of their certifications prior to visiting the CSC RO or FO.
Passers who have relocated to a different region or reside in remote areas within the same region may obtain their Certification of Eligibility (CoE) from the nearest CSC RO or FO serving as conduit to their current residence or workplace.
The comprehensive information regarding individual examination results and CoE for successful candidates can be accessed through Examination Advisory No. 6, s. 2024, which is published on the CSC website.
Professional and Subprofessional Eligibilities
Applicants who passed the CSE Professional Level are granted with the Career Service Professional Eligibility, which is a requirement for permanent appointment to first and second level positions in the government covering professional, technical, scientific, and managerial positions and requires at least four years of college studies.
On the other hand, Subprofessional Level passers shall be conferred the Career Service Subprofessional Eligibility, which shall be appropriate for permanent appointment to first level positions such as clerical, trades, crafts, and custodial service positions requiring less than four years of college studies.
However, the CSC said that eligibility alone does not guarantee employment in government service. Applicants must meet all the qualification standards of the position, which comprise education, training, experience, and eligibility.
