Sometimes I just wonder if I will ever get a job in this country. And all those advice about reading one's book and coming out with good grades, well, I don't think it works. At the end of the day, one has to cross these high hurdles of assessments and interviews. They don't even give one enough to write the exams. About 48 seconds for each question. And one has to work with fractions and decimals; multiplication, addition, division and subtraction; and the usual question of totalling the whole data in a table. I won't talk about the abstract reasoning, especially the last one with EY, after so many long hours of practice, one couldn't even boast of six questions. They just stay there on the screen staring at one and looking like product of alien machination mocking one's feeble attempt at decryption.

And each time I interact with these people, those who actually crossed these hurdles and got the job, they don't particularly strike me as extremely intelligent; just normal humans. I have never written any exam twice, but these aptitude tests, although very simple, keep making me reach for the earth.

I have been cheering up since May, 2016. Perhaps I will cheer up after letting it out. Each assessment, each interview takes a swipe at my confidence. I never should have wasted six years chasing a degree. Knowledge is power? No sweetheart, knowledge is power after you have made money, a lot of it.

Make una no vex I just dey weak and sad �, had to let it out.

I feel people that got the regret mail are pple that regret mails were sent to after the online test before getting a success mail afterwards (stand to be corrected). The interview stage should be communicated by EY and not dragnet, so I feel the mail came as an error. My thoughts tho.

I scanned and sent in my certificates for the documentation stage 2 friday's ago but I'm still yet to be invited for the AC, do you have any idea how long this might take or why the delay?

Mathicks:
I was invited for an aptitude test, and it's tomorrow, at the KPMG tower. I have a few questions. First is, are candidates allowed to take their phone into the hall? I mean, after switching it off, of course. Or are there places where personal items can be dropped around the area or at the venue?

And also, how complex are the written tests usually like? Because it seems most people first go through CBT, but in my case, it's written.

xbee24:
Please I need clarification concerning the recruitment processes. Aside the CBT and the essay writing stages. What are the other stages and can they be carried out online. Why I am asking is because I based in the northern part of the country and travelling to and fro Lagos is not really funny.

I will really appreciate any kind response.

sureguy02:
Yes. People still get dropped. However, it is rare. Scaling thru the first PI means you are very good, but they just want to double-check to ensure they aren't making mistakes.

It is going to be a chat, not an interview. It will be as if you are gisting. You just need to be confident.

sureguy02:
Yes. You will meet the head of TRPS for a brief chat. You will get a mail for medicals after the chat.

I understand your stand, not just you. Have you realized that in Nigeria we are raised to be sympathetic rather than just. We don't give justice rather we dish out sympathy and compromises.

Just think about this:
Let's assume there are two guys in your area, Mr A whom contributes nothing but headache to the society and Mr B an everyday guy trying to live his life. A fight breaks out one day and Mr A happens to be at fault, if during the fight Mr A ended up killing/injured Mr B.

Mr A family will go begging for forgiveness. If Mr B family refuses, Mr A family will employ the help of pastors/Imans/Bale and the story will change into, "since what has happened as happened there is no need pressing charges. That Mr B family should forgive and forget". If Mr B family stands their ground, the new twist will be that even pastor, Imam and Bale begged them but they refused. It will be construe as a sign of wickedness and disrespect to the pastors/Imam/Bale and the perpetrator becomes the victim while the victim is being victimized all over again and the community will turn against them.

Being sympathetic and humane is good but we should be thought when to allow justice to take its course for the greater good of the society.

woodcook:
I don't think he values his job, if he dies he wouldn't have contact the op in the first place. These are the kind of staff that give armed robbers info on how to rob their victim. From contacting customer he will "graduate" to teaming up with armed robbers to rob customers.
