The Philippine Civil Service Commission (CSC) has released the results of the March 8, 2026 examinations in both the professional and sub-professional categories.

In a news release, the CSC said the topnotchers are:

• Professional Level: Jannah Arumpac Masbud of Region XII; Rating: 98.60, and

• Subprofessional Level: Ernesto Gabriel Valderrama Serrano of the National Capital Region (NCR), Rating: 95.49.
