ladyF:
Lol I think baddo is just pulling our legs, the mails could drop tomorrow (...that's me being optimistic)

I think we need to battle this thing head on, can we get volunteers to go to NLNG head office tomorrow? Maybe the volunteers can meet with the HR, that's if the security let's you in....don't say it's LadyF that sent you o. But if this November thing is true, considering also that results of each candidates were compiled and sent to the HQ a day after each person's AC, dem no try sha

dway4ward:
Even if it's just 20 of the almost a thousand who are completing their masters this September, we are boxed into no plans. It's crazy for those of us. No school, No jobs at the moment, can't plan for long engagements; even interviewing for other jobs I'm appropriating NLNG values upon them. Just do this thing and get it over with.
If you're ordering the fine china to be in the Bonny apartments or organizing armored vehicles for ferrying us through PH city, that's secondary. Just send mail, Mr lagbaja sorry better luck, Miss lakasegbe congrats, wait for further info, shikena. This has been on since October 2013. I've been prepping for interviews since then.
Please, just finish this thing.

Djbaka:


You didn't address those that are not working.

NanaF:


If the wait is really till November like some have speculated, then we are in for a very long wait.

Meanwhile let's keep the thread busy. All the steady lurkers and those with 'sauces', please comment.

Prinzofparis:
Turns out the wait will be most likely longer than expected.

missyuppy:
To be honest,dis wait is "killing" and tiring but what can we do?...hw can a recruitment process take almost 2yrs elections or no elections?..say wetin happen..some pple hv built house in dese 2yrs o..NLNG do well so we can build ours too....

coolio2014:
Even after medicals, Do not quit your present jobs until you have the offer with resumption date in hand! A word is enough for the wise.

dway4ward:
Kai, but Nna this wait don long ooh. End of month don knack and no show yet. No Dplacement or Nicer hints on probable notification period. The decisions this notification is holding back, they don't know.
It is well by the grace of God.

dway4ward:
Guys, recommendation on the leadership styles was just a footnote to me. Bigger fish to fry in change of KPI from quantitative to qualitative measures. We are obviously not to see things from same angle, its why this recruitment is into many different sectors across the business.

Prinzofparis:

I guess you didn't read that part in detail, you misconstrued it or you can't recall the facts bro. There was no where in the brief where Tim refused to grant a staff leave. If I remember correctly, it was said in the brief that one of the staff is currently on sick leave claiming stress that 'Tims pushing for them to meet their KPI is too much'.

I support some of your points tho, about training and all. Anyway, AC was beautiful for me....I enjoyed myself....Now I can only wait and pray for the best. God is in charge!

Prinzofparis:


I also had the believe that he was either lying or he had been lied to. We choose not to believe because we actually can't do anything if the info checks out right.

I once was involved in the recruitment process of a very well known multinational company. Wrote first stage test with about 400 persons in attendance, then had a second stage test with about 20 successfuls from the 400. 10 out of the 20 were invited for interviews. At the interview, we saw 5 other guys smiling like sheeps while sitting in one corner forming caucus, so as a social guy, I tried to relate with them and discovered some were already contract staff and some knew someone in the company.

After the interview, we exchanged contacts and thanks to nairaland we kept in touch. 2 weeks later 3 of us out of the 10 received mails that we were successful at the interview and the other 7 received regret mails.

I was in touch with one of those contract guys and he said the company had already taken who they wanted even before putting up any job advert, that they only came to show face at the interview to fulfill all righteousness (they didn't do any tests but just showed up for the interviews)

A month later, that same 5 contract/IM guys went for medicals and resumed for the same opening while the 3 of us that got success mails were kept in the dark.

3 months later, the 3 of us got mails from the company that they regret bla bla bla and that they have other candidates to choose from and all that many stories. This is a very well known multinational.
There are many other stories like this happening in great companies and multinationals in Nigeria.

My childhood neighbor just resumed with NNPC as a graduate entry level even though recruitment is said to be on a hold, he didn't do any test or interview!!!!!

Let's just hope when we all get to wherever we are going to, we will be professional and use TRUE integrity when we can.

NLNG is a great company with high integrity as the facts from past experiences and many people who were successful in the past, especially in 2007 have been vocal about the level of integrity of the recruitment process.


In the end, I believe it will come out favourably for us.

freaknik:


hmmmm...I know someone who just finished NYSC july 2nd, graduated 2014 january, attended this AC...." guess for formality sake"

weomet:


Well based on all that I saw during the recruitment process I believe it is largely unbiased. There were several assessors and from what I have heard this AC is on par in terms of transparency and rigor with that conducted by other international companies. Will there be 'long leg'...maybe there will be or maybe not. In as much as it seems that they might use some of the 'other factors' you mentioned I still believe that ALL of those that perform well will be taken.

adhominem:
In as much as I recognise the supposedly huge financial rewards awaiting successful applicants, I have reservations concerning the career path the coy offers considering the few reviews on glass door. It looks like one might be stuck doing the same thing for a long while.

CHM11:

NOBODY WILL ANSWER THIS QUESTION BECAUSE NOBODY DID AC IN BOTH ABUJA AND LAGOS. PLS LET IT SLIDE.

SEEMS YOU ARE FOR PH?

brightsparks:
I want to know if the AC in abuja and lagos where the same, since everybody is on a lowkey. Why is everyone mute about this AC sef? I go spill my beans ohh...

ceetee:
Just wondering if anyone can confirm that the Lagos folks have finished or if the PH contingent have started their AC. How do we know when AC finishes so we can share our experience for the benefit of the next set of GT applicants.
As for when we'll get the outcome, on the day we were told within 3 months from the first week of AC not sure what those who did theirs recently were told. I guess theirs will be more accurate.

ceetee:

Going through this thread from the day the AC invite was sent, the earliest Lagos candidate I saw was scheduled for 29th June. That's why I'm not sure if AC is ongoing in Lagos
My theory;
Abuja 08-19 June
Lagos 29 Jun- 11 July
PH 20-31 July
From Aug 1; the waiting game, reliable sources gist, talk about salary, federal character, whether results were released in batches, manifestation of faith etc. will reign supreme

ArtistA:
I think I have to book my flight soonest before price sky-rockets.

@Nicer, thanks for your contributions. I just have one question. Do you have any idea how long the exercise for the day will last?... i.e 7:00 am till ??..... I need to know because I intend on booking my return journey for the same day as my assessment date. (I should be at the airport by 9:00pm). Assessment is in Lagos.

Thanks.

I also await your info on reimbursement as you promised

4mula22:


Why then did they ask for our location?

At least they should know that we are somewhere on planet Earth!

They should have just asked us to indicate interest or availability.

wakama6:
hi nicer, thanks for the useful info..

we really appreciate

however, a confirmation that our return mails were received would do a whole lot of good.

thanks once again

Xenox:
From a very reliable source. 'Assessment Day scheduled for June 2015, top be held in different regions nationwide.'

kblaze111:
WETIN these people they wait for again?

FGUN14:
I see no reason why AC can't hold before Swearing-In. NLNG was clear that they postponed AC for elections to take place and not for new government to be sworn in. Unlike March 28 & April 11 which were filled with speculations and uncertainties, May 29 is very much different.

I just hope we don't have to wait unnecessarily longezr.

4mula22:
Is there anyone here that wrote the recruitment exam in the UK?

Will there be an AC centre in the UK?

If my last address was in Nigeria, and I'm now in the UK, how do I sort it out? Or do I bare the flight fare myself?

Someone should help me out please

UnknownT:
With the results of the presidential election released so far, there is a high probability that any of the 2 major candidates may be declared winner today. My question, if GMB eventually wins, will it affect this recruitment either by postponement till his government settles down or outright cancellation knowing that NNPC is a major player in our economy? Happy New Week All!

dcdee:

Stacydual, Pride goeth before a fall. I remember the last time you came, you were bragging about how young you are. Now, you are reiterating it and also telling us about how you've been globetrotting on certain projects. REALLY Can you please stop?
