In a job advert posted Friday, Jan 03, via its official X handle, the commission urged qualified Ugandans to submit handwritten or typed applications no later than January 17th to be considered for these positions.
“Applicants should be Ugandans holding an Honors Bachelor’s Degree in Arts, Social Sciences, Development Studies, Education, Business Administration, Law, IT, Procurement, or a related field in Humanities from a recognized University/Institution,” the advert reads in part.
