The process of selection during the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) recruitment exercise is transparent and only a qualified candidate carries the day.
However, if one is not satisfied with the recruitment process, there is a laid down mechanism to register your dissatisfaction.
Candidates who are dissatisfied with the whole employment exercise should complain immediately in writing to the TSC county director.
A copy of the complaint is sent to TSC headquarters through the email address: dirstaffing@tsc.go.ke not later than seven (7) days after the selection process.
The TSC County Director should, within seven (7) days, analyze and address all complaints raised after the selection process has been completed and promptly inform the headquarters of the action taken.
Where an applicant is dissatisfied with the decision of the TSC County Director or where a complaint is made against the TSC County Director, the applicant shall appeal to the Appeals Committee on staffing functions at the TSC Headquarters.
The Appeals Committee shall investigate the allegations and take appropriate action within fourteen (14) days.
