Overview of the Shortlist

The Uganda Police Force (UPF) has officially announced the shortlist for the Probationer Police Constable (PPC) recruitment. A total of 16,678 candidates have made the list. These individuals are now eligible to proceed to the next phase of the recruitment. This recruitment is part of a nationwide initiative to bolster the police force ahead of the anticipated security demands for the 2026 general elections.

Interview Process for Shortlisted Candidates

The shortlisted candidates are scheduled to undergo interviews starting April 28, 2025. These interviews will take place at designated regional and district recruitment centers.
