Dioxidane:
So I went for a job interview/test today at a manufacturing company and a very hilarious/scary scene played out before me.

I woke up in the morning and my head was banging like a 2 by 2 plywood was hit on it. Even the panadol I took did nothing to relieve me - the headache was dancing 'skelewu' around it.

When I got to the company and after normal security checks for invitations, I went in and saw others that were also invited. I realized that I was the last person to come in 'cos no other person came after me.

I did a head count and we were 20 persons - 13 guys and 7 ladies. And yeah, the 'chicks' were fine like hell.

I wasn't in any mood to 'chyke' any girl because of my headache, so I went on 'lock-up' mode, after all I came for a job test not to scoop girls. Other sharp guys were already in intimated conversations with some of the ladies.

Not too long after I came in, two men came and ushered us into a conference room. 'Damn, this is what I call a 5-star conference room', I thought.

The conference room was so posh and it's air conditioning could freeze ones brains out. The setting of the company was pristine, with everywhere looking so upper class. I never knew there were companies like that in Nigeria apart from oil companies. I even saw an 'ATM plaza' in the company! Imagine! I told myself I was going to get a job in that company whether the devil was comfortable with it or not.

After pep talks and collecting our CV's, the two men began distributing the test questions. There were 30 questions in all and we were to answer them in 1 hour. It was boldly written on it. 'Wow, very organized coy', I thought.

Looking at the questions, I was shocked! I knew the answers to some questions, I forgot the answers to some, I could manipulate some, but there were some I just didn't know!

I raised my head and realized the two men were no more in the conference room and the door was shut. The whole room was silent. I guess the others realized it at that same point, 'cos they began raising their heads and the guys that already had rapports with some of the ladies, in wanting to be 'caring', began asking the ladies if they could answer the questions and that if they didn't know any, they should simply ask.

Moments later, different talks began flying around in whispers: 'Do you know the answer to number 13?' 'I thought it's supposed to be on quantitative analysis.' 'No, it's qualitative analysis.' 'How do convert that value to inches?' 'Jeez, I've forgotten that formular'. 'I think it's height times r square'. 'Are you sure?' 'I can't remember exactly, but it should be something like that.'

I was still on 'lock-up' mode so I didn't talk to anyone. I just concentrated on my test while listening to words flying around, hoping that the answers to the ones I didn't know would drop.

I also wondered why we were left without supervision. 'Or was there a camera in here?', I thought. I looked around and saw a contraption in the ceiling, blinking a red light. It definitely didn't look like a camera!

We've already spent 30minutes. I had answered about 15 questions - the ones I was sure of. I looked around and saw some guys browsing on their phones, obviously checking the answers online. And being 'good guys', they were dishing out answers to some ladies too. 'Damn you PHCN!', I thought. I had already answered the questions I knew. I should have checked the others online and gotten the answers easily. I would have even had the opportunity to confirm the ones I had already answered. The battery in my phone was flat!

The lady sitting beside me was feeding off answers from the guy beside her. I was about asking her if she had answered (or 'obtained' the answer) to question 22 when the two men who issued the test walked in with 4 fierce looking security officers.

'You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, stand up!' One of them barked out. I was shocked! 8 persons were asked to stand up and I was among the 'yous'. And to think I didn't talk to or with anyone and I didn't cheat in any way, I was beginning to get angry.

The next words I heard were a relieve. 'The rest of you, drop your scripts and get out! Your test is over!'



Jeez, so they watching us after all! Some began begging, especially the ladies, but the sight of the fierce officers man-handling one of the guys that wanted to protest their action did something to calm their nerves.

Few minutes later, the conference room was quiet again. One of the men told us we had 15 minutes more and they left almost immediately. We were 6 guys and 2 ladies left. When they left, I looked around and everyone concentrated on his or her work. I was already done with the ones I knew and manipulated the ones I could.

Exactly 15minutes later, the men came and collected our scripts and told us they would get back to us.

I did my best. I pray I scale through, but I learnt a very vital lesson which other job seekers too could learn. I'm not going to mention the lessons. Decipher it yourself.

Lest I forget, try watching the movie 'THE EXAM' if you've not already done so.

You know while reading this I said to myself you have been watching "The Exam" of late.

And lo and behold you confirmed my thoughts.

Dioxidane:


You think so? Which part?

Maybe not all of it, but there was obviously some embellishment.

Sometimes we blame God not knowing He is actually working for us! Imagine say NEPA give u light throughout the night and your battery na 99%!


Txs for sharing though... it happened here in Valero Energy, USA some weeks back! I couldn't help but laugh watching them...

You got this from the movie "The Exam"right?

Ganoderma:

Of course it was embellished... If I wrote it exactly the way it happened, you probably wouldn't be interested in reading it...

I tell you... Thank God my battery was flat, I probably would have fallen victim to the trap. But lessons definitely learnt...

smurfy:

Naa... What I wrote is quite different from what happened in 'The Exam'. Besides I watched that movie like 2years ago. I just remembered it after the test yesterday...

Toeyean1507:
'THE EXAM' dats a movie for every job seeker

is it a foreign movie or nigerian movie

fpeter:
heheheheheheheeee
OP....i salute your well articulated writeup,it's been ages i read anything with good grammar on NL

Wow! I'm 'blashing'... Thanks... I appreciate...

Dioxidane:


It actually happened yesterday...

Would have bought your story OP, but when you got to the part where the security men told the cheats to 'get out' and even manhandled one of the guys, I realised it's 'tale by sunlight'. No well-structured organisation would act in such an abusive manner, no matter the situation.

Dioxidane:

is the exam a nigerian or foreign movie

fabulousdora:
is the exam a nigerian or foreign movie

It's a foreign movie...

fabulousdora:
is the exam a nigerian or foreign movie

How can it be a Nigeria movie? I have not watched it but I am 99.9% sure it's foreign

I'm not trying to convince you it happened. You are an adult, and you have the right to believe or not to believe anything you are told. That being the case, trying imagining an exam hall in a university where someone/group of persons who cheat is/are caught. You understand the kind of chaos it would cause, right? Try applying it in this situation. The security operatives were there to quell the tension and they did... No organization, well structured or not, would allow chaos in it's premises no matter the level of force they would have to use. This is what I experienced. I don't know about you...

Godditex:
Where can I get it pls?

Check mp4mobilemovies.net

It may not be a very clear movie but mine is a very clear copy of about 1gb and i cant transfer to u. Its a good movie to see

fpeter:


What is the essence of an examination? why would they think the room was not bugged?
most offices have hidden cameras,leaving the candidates by themselves was a setup..they should have known!

Emmysteve:
where can I find THE EXAM. - -? AND WHY IS THIS NOT ON FP?

Its an old movie, was produced in 2009 but it remains one cool movie that educates n informs job seekers, interesting, thrilling and huge. U can get it at the market or any movie shop or bookshops near you

Shey you know this attempt to convince us is even more unconvincing than your story. Had it really happened, the culprits would have been politely led out of the room and not ordered to 'get out'.

When ever de of my fone is flat,its for a reason...
Everything is for a reason...

Godditex:
Where can I get it pls?

U can download it on movie sites. i actually watched it on a friend's laptop

prelinctus:
Op, this story is fabricated.

That's more than obvious!

timilehing:
If u con mentioned the name, I'll go behind u to apply or delay ur call up? Lots of kids around lately sha

Kid, right? No offense taken...

Obviously you are currently job hunting, so am I. If you are to widen your horizon, answer these questions. If you don't know the answers, you can always do research.

1. How many industries or firms in line with your field exists in Nigeria?

2. How many of them do you know their locations?

3. How many of them advertise their vacancies online?

I'm sorry to say this, but just because someone mentioned online that he/she went for an interview doesn't mean you ask openly for the link or location of the company. If you were the one, I'm sure you wouldn't do that either...

I bet the movie THE EXAM came to ur mind then.its a nice movie wit alot of lesson to learn.

for those that want to watch the movie THE EXAM you can download it using the link below

The movie is all about Eight talented candidates who have reached the final stage of selection to join the ranks of a mysterious and powerful corporation. Entering a windowless room, an Invigilator gives them eighty minutes to answer one simple question. He outlines three rules they must obey or be disqualified: don’t talk to him or the armed guard by the door, don’t spoil their papers and don’t leave the room. He starts the clock and leaves. The candidates turn over their question papers, only to find they’re completely blank.

WAOHHH.. lessons learnt!!!

one has to be careful in this job search.

I know a guy who wasn't employed after being trained by an oil company because he couldn't keep informal activities from work

summary ="don't throw caution to the wind"

There are several movies similarly titled.
So which is which?
