Do the password recovery or open another email,

the best is to recover the password. it could be that your system reported error when you were registering

Look for the option that says 'forgot password', click and follow instruction.

Guys don't ever be overly assuming.At least we can always try.While it is true that many people get employed through favoritism,my own employment into one of the biggest multinational oil company started on nairaland.it only took a while but at last I got the job without knowing anybody.
Always give a try,sometimes it just looks as though the job is waiting for you.

Im still wondering why people are not so interested in this world bank Job..
Im not seeing comments the way nairalanders will make comment on Jobs of this magnitude.

People will be notified todday on their interview dates nd venue.

Lets know as soon as you get yours.........

According to this update: "We have completed the shortlisting for most of the positions and shortlisted candidates are being contacted for interviews at various locations." So, did anyone get invite for interview yet?

that's what am asking from people indirectly, if anyone had been called?

heard a lady was called for interview like 10days ago...

Hmmm . . . just stumbled into this thread. I'll really be surprised if anyone comes here to write he/she is going for the interview. Here might not be where to get the info but know that interview is ongoing and will soon be over as positions are being filled.

interview is ongoing at the moment in Paris, London and Dakar and will be concluded in the next few days.....

Sure, invited peeps will travel to the nearest location which is usually where they have the largest pool of candidates. My source is very...very .....reliable!

That info is 100% reliable. I said it earlier. World Bank had already said where interviews will hold and Nigeria wasn't there. It's good to remain positive but honestly I'll be surprised if any of the profiles in that interview is a regular follower or poster on nairaland.
