hapiness44: Peeps! I feel the mails are coming in batches,according to the day you wrote your online assessment..so keep being positive for those that have not seen theirs..

I dont think so. I think its random or maybe according to score i dont know though. But i wrote my test in the 2nd week among the last ppl and got my sucess mail first day, in fact one of the 1st five as i saw on ths thread. I wish everyone the best. God knows best.

Doea Uac has presence in the Northern part of the country?? I need this info ASAP
And anyone with the current salary info should update us pls.

This is to all UAC aspirants, just to share some important info with you. I was in your shoes some 8 years back. I wrote the UAC commercial trainee test in 2006 May 2006 and eventually resumed there in sept of same year (I shared the testimony then on this same forum). Anyway am sharing this to help you guys on how to prepare for their interview which i believe is still the same format. Before i proceed further i will like to correct an impression that a dude gave earlier on the thread that he has already gotten the job through internal connection. I beg to differ with the guy. That assertion of his seems like a lie. UAC is one of the companies that still recruit strictly on merit.

The interview is usually at 2 levels, the first being an interview with a panel of 4-6 senior officers of their different subsidiaries and in the interview expect anything. Anything meaning it could be as serious as to ask u about what u know about a current govt policy or as trivial as EPL premiership scores of the previous week. Current affairs and general knowledge. interview for each person could last for btw 30-45mins. I could remember i was asked to talk about 3 policies of OBJ's govt that were recently implemented.( I talked about the banking reform, Insurance sector reform and the maritime reform then). I also remembered being asked some tricky questions like who is the "president of the UK" an dthis had to be exlained that they do not have one. Summary of what to prepare for in the 1st stage is that you should be aware of current happenings in the country and beyond, know about the company very well and also be very confident.

As at then only about 160 of us were selected for the 1st level interview and about 50 or thereabout were called for the 2nd stage. we were divided into 4 comprising of 12 in each group. The 2nd stage interview usually takes the whole day. 4 stages in all. The first stage then had 4 mgt staff 2 MD's of Subsidiaries and 2 directors in my own group. They all introduced themselves and discussed their profile (name, qualification, job experience, lenght of time in UAC amongst other things. we were then asked to follow suit, all the other interviewees will be hearing u, so u take note to speak out loud and clear. This stage took close to an hour after which we were served breakfast. After the breakfast the sitting arrangement with our name tags was altered and we were given a passage to read and discuss answers to the 2 questions after the passage. The Ogas were taking notes while the discussion was going on among us. (i think the essence was to see your ability to work in a team). This took a little over 30mins and for the 3rd stage u will be asked to pick any wrapped paper (devils basket) in a container and whatever topic you see in it should be discussed. Like u making a presentation of whatever you find in it. I remembered my topic was Social security and i was done in 5 minutes before i started babbling due to my little knowledge of the topic. some were fortunate to have simpler topics like "nollywood". after this stage was lunch.

The 4th and final stage was one on one interview with the directors again and it was just like the 1st level interview where the questions could come from any angle. AT this stage there is a possibility of getting questions related to your course. pretty straight and u may stay inside for up to 20 minutes. Just be confident and be cool.

Lastly to tell you how i asserted that the dude that claimed to have started there already may not be saying the truth is that, after the final interview, 13 people resumed 1st week of august 2006 and i wasnt among them. I was then called to come for medicals on 31st August and i eventually resumed mid september. It was on my resumption that i found out that one of the 13 resigned 3 weeks after they started and i was called to fill up the space. I had friends that had insider in UAC but they were not called when i was called. I was called to make up the 13 and after i resumed 4 months later i wasnt replaced.

i hope my piece will help one or 2 peeps on this forum. I wish u all the best, i will be available for more comments later in the days.

Jydo, thanks man, I have been refreshing this thread since morning for first hand experience on the assessment stage. You did well unlike those guys who wasted my mb arguing about dragnet.

How unreasonable can you get.

Totally ignoring the attack strategy you are using to avoid the subject matter - is dragnet corrupt or not - would have been good but again i will answer you because i take strong exception to be insulted that way.

If you are a reasonable employee of dragnet this would have been a classic opportunity to make your strong points probably why dragnet is not a fraud and measures you people put in place to avoid undue advantage.

You allow that opportunity to slip away but rather expose to the public the quality of workforce that dragnet has - one that cannot engage in a simple argument without insult (this might just be a hasty generalization as you might just be the mistake in the organisation but that is the impression you give) - and such is the feature of someone who has something to hide thus giving more doubts about dragnet.

Pls UACN candidates (myself inclusive) sorry for this temporary derailing of this thread.

This is becoming very scary, so after this rigorous process just about 20 people will be recruited. SMH
