300 more Pdea agents needed
THE Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (Pdea) is looking for 300 anti-narcotic agents for the next batch of recruits to boost its manpower resources and effectively carry out anti-illegal drug operations in the country.
Pdea 11 information officer Noli Nephi Dimaandal invited Dabawenyos who are qualified for the Intelligence Officer I post to submit their application and be part of their organization. These new officers will be the front lines in the campaign against illegal drugs of the present administration.
The examination is set on June 11 at the Davao City Police Office covered court, Camp Captain Domingo E. Leonor, San Pedro St., Davao City at 6 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Those who have not submitted their application last June 1 will be considered walk-ins and they must wear white round-necked T-shirt paired with blue jeans and
rubber shoes (proper haircut for male applicants, hair in pony tail for female applicants).
Applicants must bring original copy of duly-accomplished personal data sheet (PDS) CSC Form Number 212 revised 2017; authenticated copy of eligibility (issued by the CSC/PRC); Valid ID; two latest passport size ID pictures (white background, with signature over printed name at the bottom part); two Mongol pencils and black pen.
They must also bring original and photocopy of their NSO-issued birth certificate; NCIP-issued Height Waiver (if applicable); official transcript of records; College Diploma and Certificate of Eligibility or Report of Rating.
Dimaandal also reminded those applicants to be at the testing venue before 5:30 a.m. and that walk-in applicants will be accommodated provided that they are qualified and compliant with the requirements. No fees will be collected and applicants are generally notified by the Pdea Academy through e-mail and text/call. Age waivers are not accepted.
Pdea, however, discourages those who are not computer literate, not of good moral background, not physically fit, not proficient in oral and written communication skills, not willing to be assigned anywhere in the Philippines and not willing to undergo rigid six- month training for the drug enforcement officer basic course.
Dimaandal added that they need more personnel as their strength is not enough compared to the ideal number, now that the government is upbeat in cracking down illegal drugs in the country.
