some times it is not about your at look but what you have got in you.rember my first interview which i wore an oversized shirt and yaradua shoe to..when the interviewers saw me their eyes were like iru eeyan woh tun leleyi..by the time i handle them with my oratorical verbosity and intellectual content..kia loju won yi pada ti wo n rerin simi ti won tun patewo..
In summary develop yourself and eved if you wear agbada go bill gate company..by the time he hear you speak he get no option than to give you the job:.learn also to have a good fashion sense like me now..baba ti upgrade...in yq's voice i sing bata ti mowo na tear rubber.:...

When answering questions, Try to KISS (keep it short and simple). Avoid unnecessarily long answers dat would eventually make u to blab or go off track. And always tailor ur answers towards selling urself to the employer.

1) Lost out in BRISTOW helicopters interview because I couldn't name the helicopters in their fleet. (You must research every company that has called you for an interview

2) Lost out in UAC 2nd stage because I did not have the answer to who the American Secretary of state (Try to read wide during your job search)

3) Lost out in DIAGEO assessment centre final stage (Tried to prove I knew too much during the group stage of the assessment centre)

4) Lost out in BAT management trainee 2nd stage (I was asked a simple question of " Can we meet you"? And I rambled non-stop for 10mins of inconsequential info, the interviewer had to tell me to stick to the point)

5) Lost out in SHELL, CHEVRON (Skills test), MOBIL, NLNG (2nd stage), ADDAX (skills test), GSK, CHAMS (2nd stage)

I thought my village people were after me at a time (lol)

Presently work in a MNC (after I added all lessons that I learnt over years of testing and interviews) earning WELL OVER 6 figures!!

Mine was at fmctech at onne in jan..
Interviewer:do you know what we do?
Me:i stated them all of cos i jack the tin bt i wasnt ready for the next question.
Interiewer:do u knw what we do here?
Interviewer:do you know hw to use a pc i say yes then e b lyk have u wrkd wit excel b4 i say yes next tin what formula did u use
Interviewer:if u re given three products to produce with a deadline,how wld u go about it..of cos i rush talk.

I knew all the answers even that of excel formulars bt pressure,fear and overconfidence jumped in as i felt like i aced all other ques.

My advice be calm,do not be in a haste to reply neither shld u take too long to reply,most of all prepare for the unexpected cos even wetin u knw u go forget.
In all God favor dey these things.i stil dey wait fmc

I had a terrible and unforgettable experience couple of months ago. I scaled through 3 stages of interview with a stockbroking firm only to get to salary negotiation and I lost the job. I was asking the company to pay me an improved remuneration a little above what they offered and I thought we were still negotiating only for me to be told that the job has been given to the second person in line for the job who apparently asked to be paid less. It was indeed a terrible experience.
What I have learnt in all of this is that as a job seeker never set or insist on unnecessary high remuneration beyond what is reasonable. For me, I was trying to get the best out of a net pay but it cost me the job. In the face of gross unemployment in the country, no employer would want to dwell too much on salary negotiation when they know that they can easily get a candidate for the same job for less. In all, I think the job was not meant for me even though they considered me as their first choice for the job.

On a final note, how do you greet members of a panel, do you shake them round?

Wearing a perfume. I attended an interview where i was to meet the MD. I was ushered into his expansive office but, my cologne triggered his asthma and i had to invite his P.A before we could revive him with Salbutamol inhaler. That was the end of the show. Please avoid wearing perfumes or deodorants. Some employers are asthmatic or allergic to scented chemicals. Peace.
