How many were you guys invited/present today? And are there indications that more invites are going to roll out?

for example...question 1..have you even found yourself in a situation where you needed to satisfy yourself and your colleagues by doing what is not expected of you?...
question 2...if you are in a team and your team leader is the type that does not take your opinions into consideration and you see that your ideas would salvage a dangerous situation...what would you do as a good team player??
your answers to these questions are found in their core values.....they can rephrase questions like these to know if you are being sincere or not....and to throw you off balance....
just go through your CV...you'll be good to go

First, I answered that the flours were same. However, I do not think the point of that assessment was to actually test whether you could tell them apart. I think what was being tested was whether you could form an opinion firmly and stick by it.

Secondly, I think it's premature to conclude that you will no longer get called. There wasn't any indication that the invites are over. There wasn't indication of the opposite either. There wasn't a chance to ask questions as everyone of the HR personnel was in one panel or another. But I am more inclined to think that invites are still coming.

I know it's difficult to stay positive but that's all we can do for now. Stay positive.

my brother...do not bother yourself so much about that assessment. if i begin to tell you my story as regards to that assessment na laugh you go dey laugh...my group guy said that assessment na 9jabet. although i told the miller that the three samples are from the same source, but the third one still contains more bran than the other two...meaning it still needed further processing. my advice is this...just have faith and be positive. as long as regret mails were not sent alongside the invites, the probability of getting interview invite is eminent.

LOL. Maybe. It was good. I noticed that guys with work experience get asked little or no questions from their CV. They just refer to it for checks of experiences you mention. They go straight and ask behavioural and competence based questions.
Re: Flour Mills Plc Graduate Trainee Aptitude Test by peterbam(m): 3:47pm On Mar 03, 2017
Hi, at this stage, invites are usually in batches. Take for example that 3 vacancies exist and invite has been sent to a first batch of 5, at the end of the interview, if less than 3 are successful, there will be need to invite another batch till the 3 vacancies are filled. Hence no regret message will be sent till the 3 vacancies are filled. This is what happens in most organizations, so keep fingers crossed.

Good one...
Reminds me of when I worked with an electrical engineering company that maintained, installed and serviced power substations, ring main units, transformers at flour mills Apapa and subsidiary Bagco. Hectic days in the '90s!

Anyway
Remember this; It is not enough to earn & carry about a certificate! That's phase 1. Life is about relevance & providing solutions. Someone right now somewhere is looking for someone who can do something for him/her & get paid! Opportunity Meets with preparation! Is your worth only in that paper certificate even though you hardly have a REAL skill? Therefore; EACH DAY , LET YOUR CAPITAL BE YOUR KNOWLEDGE, SKILL & BARE HANDS!

**Click My Name & View That Resource You Need!**
Don't wait in perpetuity for job invitations after applying! March is here already! The thief you harbour is PROCRASTINATION! Therefore don't wait until the whole year runs out!

Great dreamers don't stay idle at home. They take steps!

Well what can I say! I think @peterbam's analysis throws everything open. There shouldn't be a final say on it until you receive a regret mail (God forbid). What they'll do first according to @peterbam is to look at the interviews they've conducted so far and see if they can get the number of people they want. Otherwise, they call more people.

Please do you know the number of people that have been called up for interviews so far? I know there were about 203 or so people in the second stage.

From what I observed yesterday, I met 8 people when I arrived. That's 9 people plus myself as at the time. Shortly after, 2 more guys came in, making 11. As I was doing the documentation exercise, I caught the sight of 2 more guys in the lobby. From then till I was taken to another floor for my interview, I noticed no other person. Also, the lady attending to the documentation process went about doing other things so we may safely say no other people arrived after those last two. So that makes 13 people in total. For the 3 days, if we assume same number if people per day, there would be a total of 39 invited.

It's just what I observed and I may just be totally wrong.

Thanks a lot. I imagined they wouldn't be many as the company would spend a fortune paying "tokens" for people's transportation otherwise.
