All applicants are encouraged to visit www.nms.go.ke, toggle to the Resources section and proceeds to the downloads section where the two lists have been published.

The shortlisted candidates are also advised to check the date on which their name falls and show up for interviews without fail.

"The list of the shortlisted candidates has been published in the NMS website and members of the public are therefore advised to visit: www.nms.go.ke for the full list.

"The shortlisted candidates are required to appear for the interviews and physical checks at the City Stadium premises on the date and time indicated against their names," read the statement in part.

In mid-October, NMS, in association with City Hall, announced that it was hiring 500 enforcement officers to boost the department which was grappling with an acute shortage of workers.

The county had set aside Ksh180 million as the budget for the recruitment of the new officers popularly known as 'kanjo'.

According to a communication from City Hall, the county was set to hire the officers in phases as the administration endeavours to have enough officers to deal with hawkers, parking boys, muggers and petty offenders.
