U don't expect a bank in lekki to employ you when you stay in iyana iba.......its just common sense

I thought that the banks have branches all over. He can be posted to work in a branch in his neighborhood.
I don't really think he was rejected because of where he lives.

Funny, but can't Laugh.

OP should've atleast make us know which area it is.

U can't be too sure it was because of where u stay that u lost the job since you didn't confirm that from the interviewer.... Anyways, u sure seems smart and I don't want you to feel down about the whole thing. It's just a lesson for you to ace the next interview. If you can scale thru the testings, then the sky is ur beginning. Just start preparing for the next. But before you apply for the next job, I have a question for you. WHY BANKING?

where does you stay

MissSlimbody:
Did you read the post @all

No think he meant dat d jobseeker did d right thing by saying the truth about his place of residence.

I believe the Op mentioned that this was the last stage of the whole process. Didn't they notice the address during previous stages?! I've attended interviews and I believe such question normally crops up at the first stage. Moreover, what if Op had somewhere close by to stay? Except the man has an issue with where Op grew up and that's prejudice.

That being said, I don't think he didn't get the job cos of that. Well, who knows

I'm very sure the cause of your non recommendation was not because of your location. Bank branches are scattered all over Lagos and they will have at least, one close to your location. Better luck next time
