This post is a must-read if you want to submit a successful application for the 2025 Nigeria Jubilee Fellows Programme (NYJF).
The Federal Government of Nigeria launched the NYJF 2025 Registration in a bid to provide employment opportunities for 20,000 young graduates.
To help you benefit from this program, we have provided a step-by-step guide to apply for the Nigeria Jubilee Fellows Programme (NJFP).
What is the Nigeria Jubilee Fellows Programme (NYJF)?
The Nigeria Jubilee Fellows Programme (NJFP 2.0) represents a renewed national effort to equip Nigerians with the skills, mentorship, and opportunities they need to build lasting careers.
It is an initiative of the Federal Government of Nigeria, with support from the European Union (EU), and implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
The NYJF connects talented graduates to meaningful work placements, career guidance, and entrepreneurial pathways.
Stages of the NJFP 2.0
- A graduate who has completed their mandatory Nigeria Youth Service Corps (NYSC) year applies to become a Fellow with the required documentation.
- After application and documentation are approved, the applicant sits through a series of tests – a computer-based aptitude test, a video submission, and finally a psychometric assessment.
- Following successful completion of these assessments, they will join the applicant pool where they will build their CVs and await a suitable match with a Host Organization.
- After their 12-month paid Fellowship (₦150,000 Monthly), Fellows who are not retained by their Host Organization or do not find other means of employment, may be offboarded into the Talent Hub for alumni.
As an alumnus you receive career guidance and support for a further unpaid six (6) months in the Talent Hub.
