Four objectives and four research questions guided the study. A sampling technique was used in carrying out the work. A total number of three hundred (300) respondents were used for the study. The instruments for data collection were a questionnaire and observation checklist. Three hundred (300) copies of the questionnaire were distributed to the staff of the Federal Civil Service Commission (FCSC), Abuja and two hundred and seventy-six (276) were returned representing a 92% return rate. The frequency table and Mean were the statistical measures employed for the data analysis. The findings revealed that there were no strategies or methods of recruitment and selection of staff into the federal civil service. However, the findings also revealed that practices such as political interference and corruption during recruitment and selection in federal civil service tend to undermine the principle of due process. Based on the findings, it was recommended that the federal civil service commission should formulate sound policies and practices that will minimize the degree of politicization and corruption in the recruitment and selection of staff into the federal civil service; make use of modern sources and techniques of recruitment and selection such as, E-recruitment process and Information &amp; Communication Technology (ICT)-based selection resources as their source of recruitment and selection; and develop strategies or methods that will result in the effective application of due process in their recruitment and selection exercises.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p style="text-align: justify;">В статье изучаются ограничения эффективности применения надлежащей правовой процедуры при приеме на работу и отборе персонала на федеральную государственную службу. Авторами использовался пробоотборный подход к сбору данных. В исследовании приняли участие 300 респондентов. Для сбора данных использовались анкетирование и контрольный список наблюдений. 300 экземпляров анкеты были розданы сотрудникам Федеральной комиссии по гражданской службе (ФКГС) в Абудже, и 276 были получены, что составляет 92%. Результаты показали, что не было никаких специализированных стратегий или методов приема на работу и отбора персонала на федеральную государственную службу. Однако результаты анкетирования также показали, что такая практика, как политическое вмешательство и коррупция во время приема на работу и отбора на федеральную государственную службу, подрывает принцип надлежащей правовой процедуры. На основании полученных результатов было рекомендовано, чтобы комиссия по федеральной гражданской службе сформулировала разумную политику и практику, которые минимизируют степень политизации и коррупции при приеме на работу и подборе персонала на федеральную гражданскую службу; использовать современные источники и методы найма и отбора, такие как процесс электронного найма и ресурсы отбора на основе информационно-коммуникационных технологий (ИКТ); и разработать стратегии или методы, которые приведут к эффективному применению надлежащих правовых процедур при найме и отборе персонала.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>civil service</kwd><kwd>commission</kwd><kwd>corruption</kwd><kwd>due process</kwd><kwd>goal theory</kwd><kwd>politicization</kwd><kwd>recruitment</kwd><kwd>selection</kwd><kwd>Nigeria</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>государственная служба</kwd><kwd>комиссия</kwd><kwd>коррупция</kwd><kwd>надлежащая правовая процедура</kwd><kwd>теория целей</kwd><kwd>политизация</kwd><kwd>набор персонала</kwd><kwd>отбор</kwd><kwd>Нигерия</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Nigerian Population Commission (NPC) 2006 Census (2009).
