Advice, He Was Invited For A Chat after a brave reply to the regret letter by babeface3: 10:33am On Nov 29, 2015
He submitted his cv for a job he knew he was so qualified for. A reply came after 2 weeks informing him of an online 'writing'that would test some skills before interview. That the company normally fulfils that before interview. Test question that were so strange was sent on the scheduled day and he was given just 45 mins to submit answers.
He tried his hand and submitted answers to the little extent he could attempt. He got a response the next day informing him he did not make it to the next stage and thanking him for his interest in the company. To the email he replied thus: "thanks for the feedback but I would advise you keep my CV". This was with the mindset of annoyance over the whole thing.
Going through his email the next day, he couldn't believe what he saw: a reply from the same company:."can we have a chat at our office, no... On 2nd December, 2015, by 10am. Ask of James Olufemi of the HR"...
This invitation has thrown him into confusion.

I think you dazed them with your reply...

"you can keep my cv" connotes you should still consider me for now or future positions.

I believe you wanna be given a chance to be heard, maybe to confirm their assertions about you for the position. So prepare very well.

Your boldness and courage has impressed them.

Mind you , during the face interview, it's advisable you humble yourself as much as possible, while flaunting your special skills and abilities.

Hmmmm.... The HR might just want to know the person behind such gut and the potentials imbedded in him or her if his or her potentials could be of greater value to the coy..

Go 2moro bro and be confident like you showed in the mail you sent cos 2moro might be ''FACE TO FACE CONFIDENCE EXPERIMENTATION TEST'' and not the electronic confidence you displayed in the mail.

Also, try and get a secret recording gadget like a ''spy pen'' and get the meeting recorded secretly incase they're trying to mess you up so as for u to have an evidence if you need to get them sued.

All the best!

This invitation has thrown him into confusion.

IF this is all that you wrote, I have my doubts, but if that's all that you wrote then you are being considered for an opening.

BUT admittedly you stated that you wrote out of annoyance and knowing the mindset of most Nigerians I would wager that you said more and probably threatened them.

Good luck.
