The recruitment of judges is an elaborate process that entails several steps.
Judges in the country are recruited by the Judicial Service Commission and the process begins with the issuance of notice of vacancy.
An advertisement is then made requesting potential candidates to submit their applications.
After applications are made, the JSC shortlists the most suitable applicants and publishes their names and specific interview dates.
Reference checks are then made on shortlisted candidates.
Interviews follow and successful candidates are informed.
The names are then submitted to the president for appointment.
