Foreign AffairsRe: Kim Jong-Un's Sister Swapped Pen Provided For Signing The Agreement(Photos) by charlesu49(m): 9:19am On Jun 13, 2018
Zoharariel:
You can't trust the Amerikans. History is replete with the betrayal & backstabbing of the Amerikans.

Trump pulling out of the JCPOA with Iran is one of such examples.

Amerika also pulling out of the ABM Treaty in 2002, well, simply because she thought Russia had become a rusty-old bucket is another pointer.

Infact, if I were Kim, I would insist that meeting room be changed. Who knows? CIA might have done their thing. An enemy they've been hunting for years coming to them on a platter.

And that pen could have been laced with a deadly chemical weapon - with Trump having the antidote.

But what I still can't wrap my head around is why Kim would give up her nuclear arsenal for a snake like Amerika - seeing how Saddam & Ghadafi were butchered.

I sincerely hope this is just a charade designed for the cameras.
The meeting wasn't in the US, and I'm sure they both had spies that have been monitoring the venue.

EducationRe: The Use Of "An" Before H Sounding Words, Is It Correct? by charlesu49(m):
femi4:
Its the combination of the Sounds and vowels . The sound of "H" in Hotel is silent hence it starts with "O". So, its "an Hotel" cos hotel is pronounced as Otel

So, where the H is silent, the article becomes "an" e.g an Hour
Lolzzz... My God. You must be a yoruba man grin


Yorubas when pronouncing tend to add the consonant "H" before any vowel and take away the "H" wherever they find it. They're mostly the ones using "a" in place of "an" and vice versa

Foreign AffairsRe: US President Donald Trump Meets North Korea's Kim Jung Un (Photos) by charlesu49(op):
From CNN

Trump says US won't have to front North Korea's denuclearization costs
When asked how the North Korean regime would be able to foot the bill for denuclearization while under sanctions, Trump suggested South Korea and Japan would be able to provide the financial assistance.

The US, Trump said, "won’t have to help them

Trump says North Koreans kept in prison camps are one of today's "great winners"
Responding to a question about the North Koreans being kept in what a reporter described as a "network of gulags," President Trump said that he "helped them" today, and they were one of the big winners from his talks with Kim Jong Un.

"I think I helped them," Trump said. "At a certain point I believe he is going to do things about it. I think they are one of the great winners today. That large group of people that you are talking about. I think they will be one of the great winners as a group."


Trump says he "gave up nothing" in talks with Kim Jong Un

President Trump defended himself from critics who say the United States is not getting anything out of his meeting with Kim Jong Un.

“The President has agreed to meet, he has given up so much,” he said, paraphrasing his critics.

"I gave up nothing. I’m here. I haven’t slept in 25 hours, but I thought it was appropriate to do,” he said.
Trump said the summit was “as good for the United States as it was for North Korea.”

“Yeah sure, they got a meeting,” Trump said, but “only a person that dislikes Donald Trump” would say he got nothing in exchange, citing Kim’s commitment to complete denuclearization, the return of the three American hostages, and the commitment to recover the remains of fallen American heroes.

He continued, “It’s not a big deal to meet. I think we should meet on a lot of different topics.”



Trump: Sanctions will be removed when nukes are "no longer a factor"

President Trump said Tuesday he would push for North Korea to denuclearize as "fast as it can mechanically," but acknowledged it could take a long time.

"Scientifically you have to wait certain periods of time," Trump said. "But once you start the process it means it’s pretty much over."

He said the process would start "very soon," and added sanctions would be removed "when we are sure the nukes are no longer a factor."

"I actually look forward to taking them off," he said, adding that would happen "down the road when nothing’s going to happen."


Trump says he's confident that Kim Jong Un will "live up to" the agreement

President Trump said he's confident that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un "will live up to" the document that they both signed.

"I don't think they have ever had the confidence in a president they have right now for getting things done and ability to get things done," Trump said.

"He was very firm in the fact that he wants to do this -- I think he might want to do this as much or even more than me. They see a bright future for North Korea. So you never know, right."

Foreign AffairsUS President Donald Trump Meets North Korea's Kim Jung Un (Photos) by charlesu49(op):
North Korea's Kim Jong Un met US President Donald Trump this morning in Singapore in a historic summit that marked the first meeting between a US President and North Korean leader. Donald Trump earlier labelled the highly anticipated talks as a "one-time shot" at peace. The meeting marks a dramatic shift in relations between the two nuclear armed countries, who last year traded insults and threats of war.
Washington hopes the summit will pave way for denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula. However, both nations have sought to lower expectations for an immediate breakthrough. Donald Trump has described the summit as the first step in what could be a lengthy process, dangling the possibility of inviting the North Korean leader to the United States for a second meeting.

WebmastersRe: ₦26 Trillion Net, Mark Zuckerberg And Wife Pictured On The Street Of California by charlesu49(m): 10:57am On Jun 10, 2018
Lol... Most of you don't really get why he dresses this way. It's also about being comfortable. Being comfortable boosts productivity. He isn't wearing cheap clothes, I'm sure the outfit is of the best quality out there. For a programmer, and tech guy, the way he dresses is quite functional. If having to don varying outfits don't go well with his daily routine or if they inhibit certain things about him what's the point of bearing the stress just to assuage the views of the world at the detriment of the his own productivity. His dressing is functional and that's good.

According to Zuckerberg himself
"I really want to clear my life to make it so that I have to make as few decisions as possible about anything except how to best serve this community," Zuckerberg said, after clarifying that he had "multiple same shirts."

"I'm in this really lucky position, where I get to wake up every day and help serve more than a billion people. And I feel like I'm not doing my job if I spend any of my energy on things that are silly or frivolous about my life," he said.

Its simply about what works for him, no need to take the worlds view into account over such triviality.

Hello I v bn following this thread barely 24hrs ago. I just d email twice, 2days bk and again dz monin prolly around 8am.

My Experience:

When I initially login, at exactly 12:01pm, I was told that I'm not currently scheduled for d test. At first I wanted to punt it away; saying it's one of these confused 9ja tns-I cud not understand y I'll b given time n yet denied access. I was never expecting to b shortlisted as I did d app just casually.

Well, my tenacity made me re-query it again and whoom I was granted access 4 my test.

Nature of Test:
20 question 20 minutes.
My time was just running eh, funny enof I came with the mindset of just to c how it looks like not to write as I was using a rickety android that's suppose to b touch screen but for where one nid to 'hammer' d screen b4 it works.

So I had issues navigating my questions. I'll finish but I'll v to need more time to 'hammer' my fon unto d nx display.

By so doing, I scaled tru d 1 to 9 questions correctly (u r marked right on d hot seat) failed 10 & 11 and 14 but on reaching my last question, to answer it even after I v solved it n seeing my answer right away, my ton fall my hand n d seconds were busy ebbing away. Alas! I did answer it as I was timed up.

I surmise my score to b 80-85% (if peradventure my 20th click enter). Good luck to those yet to write.

PS: I'll really would v love to share with you my questions gon if not for the contract I signed.
If I understand you, you're marked as you proceed through the test and you should see your result at the end?

The bolded couldn't have been communicated in a better way. Still the most stressful recruitment process I have ever experienced. It's better imagined than experienced. I slightly lost weight during and after that process as the most part of the recruitment happened within ten(10) working days. It became more painful when I got dropped after the chat with the CEO which happened to be the final(5th or 6th) stage of the recruitment. The 2016 exercise included practical tasks on MS Word, MS PPT and MS Outlook; slide presentation on a given stock market related topic, three different levels of interview, group discussion, psychometric test amongst one or two other tasks.

This is not to discourage anyone but to get you informed and prepared of what most likely awaits applicants for this year.

I've participated in the recruitment processes for PWC, KPMG, DELOITTE, STANBIC IBTC, UBA, FIDELITY etc; none can compare in terms of the intensity.

Wish you all the best guys. Jarushub should be able to help in preparing applicants adequately.
Where will these interviews take place? Ur location or you must travel to Lagos?

Gerrard59:
NSE is typical Dragnet's test. Expect the usual number of questions Dragnet uses and limited time. Cannot be more than 20 minutes for numerical and 18 for logical. Practice the questions very well. To put it into perspective, NSE takes less people than PwC and the process is longer, stressful, tiring and tougher. For there to be an online assessment, certainly, there will be a "verification/confirmatory" sort of test afterwards. To ensure one gets invited for the verification, it is important you perform very well. Performing well goes beyond "passing" the test, you must score high. That is, your percentile must be at least 80%. At least, my practice on Assessment Day UK tells me so.

You'll be competing against the best and brightest, so be at your best.

Note: I don't work with NSE - at least not yet. I'm just familiar with the recruitment process.
