PSC also cautioned applicants against fraudsters who solicit bribes while impersonating the commission’s staff.

“Beware of fraudsters soliciting for bribes from the public while masquerading as Commission staff. Public Service Commission does not charge any fee for job applications, shortlisting, interviews or appointments,” the commission said.
