If you wish to join the Nigerian Navy through the Direct short service commission, here are few things I wish to let you know from my personal experience.

Last year 2017, I applied for Dssc course 25 towards the end of my NYSC and from my state I was among the last 10 that made the final Interview, unfortunately I was not short listed on the final list. *painful shaa* *but I was satisfied I didn't even know I would go far*

The Mindset:
Now you need to believe that you have a chance when applying.

Applying:
To Apply, just get the form filled at www.joinnigeriannavy.com .. No special thing about filling the form, the referee doesn't matter. Anyone without criminal record is OK.
Print Your form, it must not be coloured, don't waste your money.

Filling The Form:
Fill all the required information in the form, get the police certification and L.G A certification. For the Guarantors form, don't waste your time waiting for the area commander to sign or a senior military officer, it doesn't matter, Any Civil servant upto level 16 in state service can sign it. A school principal can sign it.

After filling the form, photocopy it and keep, just in case of anything.

Preparing For The Exam:
OK, to even go for the physical screening and further screening at lagos you need to pass the first exam.

you have to read current affairs, read as much as you can, know about recent political affairs around the world, just read current affairs generally.

Then For the maths and English, someone told me what to read and it worked like magic, I hope it works again. Get the latest or the latest two versions of GMAT and Read. Read it well well, in fact cram it!

Then pray that God see you through.

Going To the Exam:
Just dress well, A Jean and polo is OK, Go early but be assured you won't start till its afternoon.

the exam will last maybe 1hr or less, obey their instructions. Go with writing materials.

They will verify your documents before the exam, if your result is less than 2:1(second class upper) don't waste your time going, they won't let you in.

When shading the answers, be as fast as you can.

GoodLuck

Next Stage!
If you passed the exam, your name will be short listed in a list of 20-30 names per state, inviting you for further screening at lagos.

Congratulations!

Going For The Screening :
Now you are closer! get ready to feel like you will get the job *lol*

In the short list on their website, you will see requirements, if possible buy the things you need before going, if you can't, don't worry much, everything is sold at the Gate there.

Go with your bed sheet, toiletries, cutlery and Money.

You will stay in students hostel, Go with a bag you can lock if possible.

Early Days:
On arrival they will first get your data.

Followed by certificate and documents verification.

*Dont worry, the will feed you morning, Afternoon and Night, but it won't be your normal dose, but you can always buy more from sellers in the camp*

Intermediate days:
After the verification comes medicals.
During medicals, a lot of tests would be conducted, like sight, ECG, HIV, BP, X-ray, Pile, height, psychological test, dental, weight. etc.

during BP test, be calm so your BP won't rise above normal *lol*

before you go, loose weight so you won't be overweight.

Late Days:
After medicals, many many people will go! during my time we reduced from 27 to 10.

If you are lucky to pass medicals, Congratulations! You are closer to the uniform *winks*

At this point food will start to be big during meals *Enjoy*lol

Get Ready For physical test and another exam!

Physical Test:
You will run, 3.5 kilometres

They will say the time of return doesn't matter, don't kill yourself, but it matters! come back within 10minutes, 1st group, within 15minutes 2nd after that 3rd. All grouped differently with different marks

After the run, you will do push up and sit up immediately!

30 push up = 6marks (maximum point given)

anything less = 4 points

Same applies to sit ups.

Do as much as you can, but just know that points are recorded!

After the physical exercise comes another exam!

The exam:
You will be asked to write essay on how you will improve navy with your skills. (this might change)

They will give you all 9k for transport.

*I forgot, even if you failed medical, you will still get the money before leaving *

At least you can use it and drink beer, even if they don't employ you *hehehe*

Now Go Home and Pray!

The Truth:
You have done your best but, this is the truth, this is why I didn't get job!

Who do you know?

Out of 10 of us that made final interview only one person was short listed along side two people from their special medical enlistment.

The slots are given to senators, Generals and top politicians, your chance is almost zero! Remember about 1000-3000 people apply per state and only 3 will be taken

If you have someone that can help you, go and seek the persons help.

this is more important than anything else. beg the person even before you go for the first exam, If the person has a slot, you might be helped!

What if you fail?

Enjoy the experience and move on!

You can ask me anything! Good Luck!
