xfire: Thanks for your understanding too. I appreciate.
I now refrain from answering questions concerning the oil and gas industry here. There are many oil and gas threads on the career section and such questions can be adequately treated in those threads. Or you may send a private mail to me. I will advise accordingly.

This thread is open to all that aspire to achieve a great career and live a life of fulfillment, irrespective of the industry they may be or aim to be. To ensure that we remain on track and maintain the purpose of this thread, I will rather focus on responding to general questions relating to jobs, careers, capacity enhancement, scholarships and education.

To God be the glory!

Cheers.....!

harrysterol: cryin I just missed a golden opportunity

razar: Good morning nairalanders.

This issue has been on my mind for quite a while now.@ the topic, some of you might think it was created by a frustrated Undergraduate (as some students actually see US) but that's not the case.
By the special grace of God I am a 1st class student of chemical engineering in federal university in Nigeria. I intend to contest for positions higher than the one I am presently occupying, so please I want to know if what am doing is worth
it

(because it is seriously Contending with my academics and I no longer get a clear head like i use to when am reading at times)

.and also if you people think its of any significance in the labour market.

The reason why i'm asking this question here is to get the view of experienced individuals (especially engineers that are practising) on this forum.
Please your contributions will be highly appreciated. Thank you

Khaynet: which one do we believe now?

NairaMode: Ehn ehn?
Thanks o.

You guys should not mind all those HR people o.
With experience you will understand a lot of things.
Making people feel like you are saying rubbish during interviews. Its a lie most of the time.
Most graduates are not good in aptitude test I know but once they are able to get to the interview stage I don't believe most people really do that bad as they portray.

Last advice.
For me, there is no really right or wrong thing to say during interview.
the key is:

Say something smart and always stage confidence even if you are not.
This two are priceless.

NairaMode: Lol.. With experience you will know how to tackle such issue.
Its common and its simply because HR professionals have to be diplomatic in their responses.
It is however better if they include that if you don't hear from us between this and that date then you have not been considered for the role.

Whenever I find myself in such a situation this are the method I use.

1) You will understand that I am keenly interested in this job and I would really love to get a feedback from you no matter your decision. Thank you.
That makes the HR person to commit him or herself and usually I get a response.

2) Sometimes I simply ask when do we expect to hear from you and usually they will give you a time frame. If I don't hear from them within that period then I call or send an email requesting for feedback which I most times get.

3) Lastly, during the interview process, I ask them: "What kind of employee can you not work with"? and then I get a story of who they want and what they do not want.
After their response to me, I further ask them if they feel I fit into that description.
The answer you get will generally help a smart person have an expectation of whether to keep dreaming about the job or not.

Lastly, for me it is unhealthy to keep your mind locked on a job or company after an interview or test. If you dont hear from them then contact them. Otherwise, move on and keep aspiring for a better life in this world full of awesome opportunities.

I hope I was able to help.
