sigh

You haven't seen some previous past questions that were much easier,they know what they are looking for,no matter how simple it is many people will be screened out.Once you meet the cut off point in your State then you must be called for interview.

warriorguy:
The questions are cheaper than NNPC past questions...

answering multiple choice questions like

JoeKing001:

I and several others experienced the same.

Was it in Dominion International School?

No Unilorin

Burchester:


Lol another conspiracy theory

Azin nairaland is the best place to find misinformation and confusion in terms of recruitment... I heard, I heard.. Please let everybody rest... The exam was cheap yes but goan pray.

abdulr747:
I was told that each wrong attempt will attract -1 mark. That is, if a person attempt all the questions and 30 out of the 60 were wrong, he/she will get 0 at the end. That's the reason why the questions were so cheap. Thank God I knew this before the test.

This one good this one good, na so mad man take gather load.

They can measure accuracy but certainly not speed in this type of test where everyone had the luxury of time. The duration should have been somewhat in the region of 15mins to 20mins if speed is desired.

Chukeg:
If they re going to apply speed accuracy, that may affect very many persons if not everyone. In centre where I wrote, almost everyone finished before 30minutes. But we had to While away the time thinking that another set of questions may come ( that was because the officials told us to wait). It was surprising though

From past years experience, does anyone have an idea how long it may take for the interview phase...

I think that may be the truth...its called Negative marking. I know jamb is fond of it.

And how does that make you feel

Seriously, just wait...... If NNPC employ some of you guys fighting over each other's comment on cheap or not cheap, you will end up turning your offices to a boxing ground. It shows that during staff meeting you can't tolerate one another.....lol. Maybe NNPC should come on nairaland and note you guys.....this Job should be awarded in character and in test performance no company would want to employ an "I too know or know it all" attitude, it's not a good thing at all. As future leaders, must learn to accept the opinions of others, look for a way to fine tune it without necessarily creating a scene.

Also, the truth is that all of us are not meant to be in NNPC. Some of us will find relevance elsewhere like Custom, Academia, UK, Canada, US etc..... just be open minded.

Success to those who are meant to be in NNPC.

joshuachuks93:

Bluekhid:

I wrote 8am and I answered it

Even me oh.seems your questions,mine and that of 1samm are the same.we also encountered the glass of water question.i used my common sense to pick 'yes i would mind'.a lot of the questions had to do with brainwork.the only difficult questions for me were maths.another confusing question is when they asked about the sources of Nigerian law

You're assuming we are not working already. Some of us applied for managerial position. We are not new to workplace, Oga. We hold regular meetings even with NNPC staff in the course of our work.

So spare us the sermon that it is Nairaland difference of opinions that will reflect ability to work in a team in the workplace. Some of us lead big departments sef.

Yes, I am for EH and I got the Combination Qs. I solved both and my answers were 210 and 84 for 2 included & 3 excluded respectively. I finished within 33 minutes, Lagos Centre.

VaselineCrew:
Did anyone get a permutations and combinations problem?

Pepjoe:
Why did they set different questions? Who else wrote the question set with pounds, AUD, Euro, n one Hkd data

I did ooo

Hehehehe..... it's alright. I can only imagine the kind of relationship you will have with those you may be placed over..... lol. Difference in opinion is okay, but don't rubbish another because you want to make known your opinion.

Since you are already dinning and winning with NNPC staff, just leave this opportunity for those who need it more na....lol

Anyway. Success to everyone who's meant to be in NNPC.

souljar:

Honestly, this was d silliest question in that exam (and even in the history of English questions ever asked)... Who rejects a glass of water?
Anyway, based on the logic i recall being taught yrs ago, I chose "yes, I would".

yes u mind means u are rejecting the glass or water na so which one is "who rejects a glass of water"

nevergiveup1:

Hmm.
When 3 are members are excluded from the group, the gruop poulation becomes (12-3)= 9. The selection becomes 9C6 which gives 84.
But when 2 members are included to the group, the group population becomes (12+2)= 14. The selection becomes 14C6 which gives 3003.
Since nothing was said of specific players being ( or not) being in the selection , the number of players to be selected remains the same.

You getting 210 means you did 10C6 . if I may ask sir, why did you use 10 as your population ? ( just curious sir)

senatordave1:
The first capital of nigeria was where

Calabar

ExpertNler, So you also wrote NNPC's test. A beg, people with advanced qualification abroad should leave this small job for others. lol

Your head dey there.My answers as well.

Burchester:


Federal character is represented. Quota system is being use. If cut off mark is 50 and no person get 50 from state A ??

Federal character fully agreed

The issue you raised based on cut off Mark wasn't a set standard but rather a child of necessity

T4kbaba:

Your head dey there.My answers as well.

Pls sir how did you arrive at 210?
