[quote author=blueheffner post=34339490]Dear Candidate.

Many thanks for taking the time to go through the online assessments and for a few of you who have talked to us about your interest in the Management Trainee - Finance opportunity.

We have now completed our shortlist of candidates who will be called for the next stage (Face to Face Interview). As a business, we have some unique challenges and, therefore, some pretty unique requirements. So we consider a range of factors, score criteria, including skills and expertise.

If you have met these expectations, we will over the next 2 weeks be inviting you to our office. We therefore ask that you exercise patience as we go through this in batches.

If you do not get called within 3 weeks, we’re sorry to say we won’t be taking your application further on this occasion. While your skills and background are impressive, there were other applications which were closer to what we’re looking for.

It’s a pity to miss out, but we wish you every success in your search for the right job. We’re delighted you’ve shown an interest in British American Tobacco. Perhaps we’ll hear from you again in the future.

With best wishes,

The British American Tobacco Recruitment Team

Guys, evening o,

So lastweek tuesday, i received a call around 10am in the morning. This was just a few minutes after receiving the initial e-mail from innocent. The HR person was asking me to come for an interview at their office in Lagos on friday. I currently stay in Abuja and i didnt have an excuse to give them at work yet so i wanted to buy more time for myself. So i asked if i could reschedule till this week wednesday and the HR lady mentioned that they would have finished conducting interview by then . So i just had to go with the original time alloted to me. Naso i just rough am go there.

Dont intend to burst any ones bubble o, just thought you all should know my plight especially the hopefulls. Y'all should just keep praying towards it sha

Regards,

@jtech
I got the call a week before the email on tuesday and no still waiting to be called for face interview.
I think the rest of us waiting should exercise patience as this stage is in batches.

Does anyone know how many people they eventually pick for each position? Someone mentioned just one for each function.
