I don't need to argue with you. You sound like a fresh graduate who knows nothing about FG recruitment. I don't need to tell you I got my FG work. Please let's stop this childish talk and face on the reality on ground that's how to pass to next stage of this recruitment. Thanks

If u think i am a fresh graduate, no problem but i have 9 years experience in oil and gas and in 4 different companies. am sending all this messages from am offshore platform.

The message am passing across is that. If u think u need connection to get a job, then u will not job any good job in ur life, remove connection from ur mind and compete with ur mate. I am where i am today without any man connection. God has has been my connection and am moving forward

Since you know there is a reality on ground to discuss, den stop connection talk here.

Thank u

bro name any top FG agency recruitment that 70% of the slot is not influenced. Sometimes you guys talk Asif you are not in Nigeria. I work with with one FG agency that just rounded up their recruitment late last year. All senior cadre were all connected while most level 5 down were merited, those guys work their life out.

70% connection, lie, lie, lie. U just dey talk as if u be the HR. Na connection u take get that ur work?

Let me tell u some thing about federal goverment recruitment that u may not know. Federal goverment uses quarter system. They may take 20 or15 person from each state as the case may be. If u are from a state with more applicant, it becomes difficult for u and if u are from a state with few applicant, it becomes easy for u to get the job. Now let me give u live situation. In 2006 after my OND, NNPC advertise must of us with distinction and upper credit apply for the trainee operator position. Two of my course mate from Ebonyi state got the job, they are in warri refinery till today, . In 2010 NNPC advertise again, now we have graduated and most of us apply again. My friend from bayelsa and his elder brother got the job. He is in PH refinery. All this people did not have any connection, the question is, how many people from ebonyi or bayelsa state have upper credit or distinction that wrote NNPC aptitude test and pass? Very few, so they have more chance of getting the job compare to me and others from delta state. The competition is high in delta, u have to be the best. So if u are from delta state, u will be shouting connection, connection that is making u not to get the job. For NNPC, i will tell u that merit is more than connect, go and ask very well.

Note also that for 90% of connection to work for you, u have to meet the required qualification to apply for the job, and u have to pass the aptitude test so dat ur connection can have mouth to speak for u. If u fail aptitude test woefully, ur connection will be ashame to speak for u and that is why most people with connection are not getting the job.

Now let me expose those who are claiming that they have connection. Those with connection, tell us when the aptitude test will be coducted? Ask ur connection and tell us, those that ES has promise job, please ask ES and tell us. Nobody go answer the question ooo. Just watch.

Friend please prepare for the test if u are shortlisted and u will come here to share the good news

ennyj01:
Most times it is not about how connected you are or how prepared you are. There is something we call luck. The four oil companies you have worked in, there was someone that will be far better than you are but he was not chosen. In as much you depend on hard work, I want you to know that luck and grace is above everything.


That is why they said no matter how good or how rich or how educated or how prepared you are, there are 10001 people way above your league.

My friend there is nothing lik luck, dont believe in luck, if God bless ur hard work, dont call it luck. Yes others may be more qualify than me but God see my effort and bless my effort. God blessing is not luck

Work hard and leave the rest for God. Satisfy urself that u have done ur best and u are not demoralise. If u are demoralise because of not having connection, that means u are doubting God and God will not act on ur behalf when u are doubting him.

mistacoco2:
bro I know of someone from Bayelsa that the ES promise to give a slot. I understand what the other guy who was saying about same relatives not getting the job. It could be the person who could help him feel since his sister has gotten the job then another family should get it.

ES promise of giving him a job and he still apply, why has has ES not give him a job before now? Did he just past out from service last week? All rubish. What is our business with who ES promise job.

I see the reason why most people remain without job after years of graduation, they believe that u must have connection to get job in nigeria. When that believe always ring in ur mind, u demoralise urself before the compition and u reduce ur competitive strength.

Since 2012 that i finished service, i have worked in 4 different oil and gas company, i resign from one to join another. In all these 4 i did not know even the cleaner. I submit my application online, write my test and do the interview. I dont care who know the MD or the supervisor of the department am going, in some of this company, the supervisor will have their cadidate but i will be choosing at the interview.

Instead of spending ur energy to discuss who know ES and who know senator, whiy not use dat energy to discuss how u can compete for the job. I think the purpose of this forum is to discuss tins that can help compete for the job, the materials to read, nature of interview and so on. if u want to discuss connection, create a separate trend for that so that those who dont have connection can discuss how they can compete and get the job here.

The moment you start thinking of connection, connection, if u fail aptitude test or interview, u attribute it to not having connection forgetting that each aptitude test or interview that u fail was to be a learning point for u, u know ur mistake and work on it in subsequent test or interview.

I think this connection discussion will not help any body here, please lets stop it and discuss with will upbuild people

Thank u

I don’t think this one is 1year internship program rather its their general recruitment process to absorbed the people into their mainstream workforce that’s my view from advert perspectives

The previous ones are not one year internship program. They were graduate training program and performance during the training count unless they change it this time. note that graduate training is not a straight employment in some of the oil and gas company, ur performance during the training is wat will give u the job

All the same, we hope for the best

bmyc:
Do you have an idea on how many people they’ll recruit base on advert compared to what they normally recruited

Most are one year training and if u perform well during d training, u have a very good job. They plan to create 3000 or more jobs this year if am not mistaking. They just finished d construction of their new head office not too long, a 17 story building in bayelsa. They are working with some local content company and they have some good project to commission this year and all those project need personal

Basilekeh:
If one is above the age, after registering the person automatically gets a regret mail...the presidential stuff can only come in as a form of replacement or later...or maybe the person will be given special APL...but if your age is more than...immediately you submit the application the system automatically rejects it.

NCDMB recruitment is totally different from NNPC recruitment. Unless they change this year, it is not like NNPC recruitment that takes up to a year or more to conclude. In the past NCDMB recruitment dont take more than a week to conclude. NCDMB Graduates Training recruitment in the past take just 3 days to conclude, they will even send the recruitment time table in some cases.

If you write their test today for example, tomorrow will be interview and next tomorrow will be selection and u get success mail on that third day if u are successful. I know guys who have pass through their graduate training before and dat was how the recruitment was then.

The way they respond to people to update their basic information while the recruitment is still on should tell u dat they have already started working on the application and it is unlike NNPC recruitment.

Unlike NNPC recruitment, NCDMB recruitment dont usually take long time for politicians to manipulate it. I know guys who are successful in their graduate training recruitment and they dont know any politician.

I think we should stop all this negative talk here to discourage people. Initially they said is fake, now that they know is not fake, politicians will hijack the recruitment. Since u know politicians will hijack the recruitment, why did u apply? Guys pls stay focus, do not let all this people discourage u

madri4u:
Is the master degree compulsory? I only have Hnd upper credit. Can i still apply? And also, when is the application closing date? Pls. I need a reply. One luv

HND Upper Credit is good to go. Only HND Lower Credit that need master degree to apply

I think all the test will be virtual. Take time to read the information in that segment carefully. I think the information clearly ask if you accept to take the test virtually. P.ease read it carefully before you make a wrong choice

Guys any info, has rhey call any body?

Please has any body who take part in d last conoil interview been called? A friend said they have started calling but i dont know if it is true. Did any body hear any tin?

Was there any body achedule for interview dis week? And pls did any body know wen they will start calling successful guys?

Was there any interview dis week? and pls who know wen they will start calling successful once?

Akexstinger:
Lol that was why we were preinformed before hand in the invite letter. Since you already know that this saturday is the Skill test day, you are expected to start preparing for it. Unless you wanna tell us that you do not trust yourself or have faith in God for you to be called.

Guy do u trust yourself in dat test? If u say faith in God i will agree but to say u trust in urself, guy i no agree with u oo. dat test no be test wen u go say i trust myself oo. How many question can u comfortably say i get d answer well. Can u boast of 50%? Guy na God hand every tin dey. Leave am for God

why are people so confuse with little tins, what concern DPR trainee and Total, DPR staff visit all the E & P production locations including Total location to check the meters and other tins and during loading of crude oil, note DPR staff not trainee. notin bring DPR trainee and staff of the E & P together, that picture is not a prove of DPR graduate trainee becos u can see people with DPR and Total lab coat.
as far as the job was advertise publicly, DPR must call majority for test and interview even though they will pick some people on man-know-man. that formality of test and interview for applicant must be carried out, though i did not apply for the graduate trainee position, am talking from over 8 years working experience in the oil and gas sector and in the labour market

talent1:
Bros I don't want to respond to your comments before but I think I av to now so as to clarify some unknown things.

Actually I agree with you that total pay 90k for their trainee, infact Mobil pay less than that but did u know how much dis people receive as salary (basic + allowance) after dere OJT and dey confirm dem, I doubt u know because if you know you wouldn't be saying all dis as dis guys can be paying ur 400k for u monthly. Besides, the certificate dey will give u after the training is a greatest asset that even those that are not employed after the training use the certificate to get better offer in Nigeria and abroad(I know some people dat are not employed by Mobil after the OJT and now dey av gotten an offer in middle east with the certificate dey gave them after the OJT and dey are earning better than dere colleague working with Mobil here in Nigeria.

U said famfa is a small producing company that it is not even among the first four largest indigenous oil producing company in Nigeria... I laughed when I was reading this...i doubt u know much about the production capacity of indigenous producing company in Nigeria...im saying dis categorically because im working with one of the indigenous E&P as an employee. ...pls can u list the first four largest indigenous oil producing company in Nigeria with their daily production capacity in terms of barrels?

I also agreed with you that NNPC have a share (60%) in any production field but with exception to marginal fields but famfa own is a different case which I will explain to u d reason. Did u know dat NNPC will take 60% in any field before development not after development (what I mean is dat if a field is to be developed after confirmation that the hydrocarbon in d reservoir is in commercial quantity, then the licence holder and NNPC will finance the project together according to their qouta 60/40, so its not that the license holder we finance all the project then NNPC will just be collecting 60% like that, which is what happened between famfa and NNPC which lead famfa taking federal government of nigeria to court). After famfa partner with chevron and developed the agbami field then federal government take 60% by force which lead famfa taking federal government to court and in 2012 famfa won the case and the 60% was returned back to famfa. so famfa hold 60% in agbami...60% of 250k barrels in a day u know what dat means...dats what famfa is taking home everyday since 2012 till date.

About famfa salary. ..if you have any chevron staff working in agbami ask him about famfa salary and d person will tell u...im sure u will be very shocked when d person tell you.

You think most of us dont know what we are doing for about to leave our companies for the training. .. I av about 5yrs of experience in oil and gas and im currently working as an employee (staff not contract staff) in one of d indigenous exploration and production company and im ready to join famfa even with a pay less dan 100k during training. Mind you this is experience position not trainee, so anybody dat participated in d training is already famfa staff not dat dey are dropping anybody after the training.

Still waiting for the list of first four indigenous e&p.

Babacha pls don't be angry with me in case you find anywhere in my explanation where u feel I addressed u wrongly...we are all here on this thread to enlighten each other...nobody is highland of knowledge. ..nobody is Mr know all. My explanation is still open for correction.

Thank u all

" As with many other developing countries, the multinationals in Nigeria had been operating under what is called a concession system, with NNPC being the concessionaire, while the companies are the operators. "

the above statement was copied from NNPC wedsite, u cannot come into nigeria and explore oil without NNPC having a share, NNPC may choose to enter a production sharing contract with any company and they share according to agreement , BUT even though NNPC is not in a production sharing contract, they still have a share as the owner of the crude. that is why u see DPR rep in any terminal or FPSO and u cant sell any crude without there knowledge. the production at agbami is not just for famfa and chevron, the concessionaire also have a share.

individual think and plane differently, i have both international and local training in my field. the certificate to work abroad is not a problem. while u may choose to come down to trainee so as to earn high in future, i prefer to earn higher or remain where i am and invest my current earning in my already existing business, while you are thinking that after two years u can pay me my salary, have u also think that i have an investment that i need money to expand and if i put in more money to expand it for two years, i bet u, u will not see my back in two years time, am not planing to remain as employee all trough my life. i need to pay people also. if u have a business that is paying u well now in addition to ur salary and u are thinking of how to expand it to pay u more, u will not think the way u are thinking now


goodluck to u talent, all the best

uchmani:
It would be worth knowing that total pays their trainees above 100k, and chevron above 200k, and a whole lot of package after the training. I don't think Famfa would pay less for training. And as a reminder Famfa is an operating coy, and they own the largest production field in the region.

guy i am in one of total field, in fact, it is total computer and internet service am using to send this reply, i should tell u about total. total pay trainee operator 90k and nothing is attached and after the training, total pick the once they need not all. that is what they do now.

Note that chevron is a multinational coy and they are the third largest oil producing coy in nigeria, famfa is a small production coy even though they have the largest share in agbami. famfa is not even among the first four largest indigenous oil production coy in nigeria. they need money to grow and expand, u cant expect them to pay like chevron. even now the big multinational like total, mobil and others are cutting down staff allowances due to fall in crude oil. my guy, famfa may try but dont think they will pay u like chevron

to remind u also, NNPC have a share in any production field in nigeria, remove NNPC share from agbami and then give famfa 60% of what remain. u see that they are still small when u talk of E & P coy

any way, is a good place to work been an E & P but not to compare their pay with multinationals

xyoung:
Bros shine your eyes very well! You should know dat we r talking of chevron operator standard..200k for training period of 18months and then 900k (minus allowance) when the actual job starts!!!. Your 400k is peanut here

that is what i think initially, but i begin to see that there is difference between chevron and famfa. dont worry, when the training start, u will see the difference between black man and white man management. mind u, no company pay trainee operator 200k. even total and mobil dont pay up to 100k, go and ask well

SolutionsGuy:
Decisions are changing often, and I can't get the exact numbers of slots for each category. besides, that will just give you more tension. That I try to avoid. But then HSE is taking "about 2". Much of my last post holds for some other categories.

@babacha, I don't think a company will pay you N400k for chilling in classroom for some months, that will rather be too generous. Although the training will be cut shorter that what was planned originally. That is for production, mechanical and electrical/instr., who will constitute majority of the new employees.

I am here less often. Good luck guys as you get your offers this month (hoping things remain as planned).

famfa needed 3 to 5 years experience, some of us have 5 years experience as senior mechanical tech and earning close to 400k per month and with yearly allowances. my current position as senior mech tech is clearly stated on my CV, going back to 100k or less for two years in the name of training is a backward movement for me, i taught the pay will be more since they need experience guys, from my discussion with the panel, they know my worth and to pay me little money as a trainee is some thing i will not accept. training me is not the problem but paying me less than wat am earning currently is wat i cant accept, i need to move forward, success to u guys that were called

How much will dis famfa pay technician during this 2years training, can it be more dan 400k? I have no regret if it is less dan 400k and I think the pay is one of the reason why I was not called. Success to those that was called

I no longer understand famfa, I have called 4 person out of the 7 of us who did d mechanical interview and they were not invited. I wonder if they called any mechanical guy at all. Am working in one of d deepwater offshore installation as a senior mechanical tech and dis is the third oil and gas company am working with. Which oother experience did they need? Let me believe dat no mechanical has been invited or they have taken people from no. Where

uchmani:
Heard there would be a final chat session with those that scaled through this stage. Wonder how many would be selected for each role.

i wonder too o, how many dem really need. Jehovah will see us through, we are waiting, at least them suppose call this new week since people are not much

talent1:
Production Operator...15
Are u sure of dat mech? Because mech and instrument suppose be almost same...my tot tough from field experience

i was part of the mechanical interview, we are just 7, number of mechanical technician and electrical technician are not always equal, it depend on the need of the production field, is not a must that equal number should be invited for interview

No one is talking again at dis stage o, we wait and pray for wat happen next, just 7 people were called out of more than 20 people who wrote the test for mechanical technician, the interview seems easy but na only God we need now, hoping to hear from dem soon

i just received my invitation mail for interview. i apply for mechanical technician, my interview is on 26 november 2015
