What next do we do as intern teachers who didn’t get the vacancies in recently concluded recruitment exercise
Actually,,we are left in dilemma
What of the current interns who didn’t secure the recently concluded permanent and pensionable recruitment?
What of the current interns who didn’t secure job in the recently concluded exercise
why is it not responding? is it still being updated
wish to be a kenyan teacher who will instill knolwledge to the learners
The site isn’t working, I think TSC should check again or come up with another way of considering those who have stayed for long without employment Imagine staying for 11- 10 years without employment? it’s really bad, it really hurts after completing your P1 again waiting for all those years? God will see us through because we have no connections.
What’s the fate of current serving interns that didn’t get permanent jobs
The site cant even be accessed….whatsup nigga
I am also perturbed!? No confirmation!? No recruitment!? What will be our fate then???!
Kindly confirm the current serving teacher interns on permanent and pensioble terms. Thank you.
Thank you for the internship. I have waited it for too long. What this corona has shown me only the master above knows the reason. With hope that the epidemic will end and life continues.
what formula is being used at the county and sub-county level?,they talk of merit list they don’t follow it. why cant you allow teachers to take the application to their sub-county instead of teachers going round to other sub-counties,in vain like last recruitment?
I appreciate having served as an intern 2020. But really it wasn’t fair leaving us out just like this without confirmation at least it could be better if the current interns could be confirmed or renew the contract.
It’s not logging in, why?
May this be my year good lord….i have really longed for this….na ifikie maulana

Where do we put proof from tsc portal evidencing teacher registration as indicated in the post for recruitment,thank you
Previous interns contract still valid till 31/12/2020….why the worry? let others also enjoy this opportunity … don’t be so selfish.
I kindly request our commission to factor in the age in the recruitment score sheet because some are approaching 45yes and there’s hope of being employed surely. May God intervene.
why does tsc allow the qualified teachers especially p1 teachers who have rotten at home because of unemployment for more than 10 years back to tsc sub county officers and county officers who are corrupt and do not follow the merit lists provided by tsc but do it in their own style, either basing on ethnicity, nepotism, what you have,home county or how you are connected with the political leaders of the area.The poor teachers without the above things still cry on the ground as tsc leaders watch.why cant you just sent the list of selected teachers from the headquarters for posting instead of subjecting them to torture of the tsc sub county directors and county directors who dont follow the tsc laid down rules for recruitment.
