In obidients voice. "Innocent people".
Sain Obi will call for their release soon

Seriously, are you okay?

Katakata10:
Hmmm

I blame Awo & Gen Adekunle for all this.

Those añimals should have been completely starved to death in 1967.

No one should have been spared.

They are just like a snake cut into two and now we can all see the repercussions (constituting nuisance worldwide)

Seun, Mynd 44
Hope you're seeing this?

EmperorCaesar:


No be Obidients new heroes be this?

So he cancel hin studies because Trump

Reno has been proven right again. He has both Rufai and Pity giiiriiiigooory by balls

Don't you dare bring Obidients into this. Two APC goons are fighting and you're bringing Peter Obi.

Are you normal?

Yarimo you and your minions should come and see news from Abia

Well said.

Meanwhile, where is MURIC? This one directly pertains to them, and they have suddenly become quiet.

vonxe:
The unfortunate thing is that where your time froze is where your answers end. Let me share my experience

There were two parts for senior facilities engineer skill test of 90mins each
I was in the first part where I did section 1 and on section 2 with 55mins remaining when my time froze. I managed to finish the remaining sections and submitted part A. I moved to Part B with only one section and my screen went blank. I used the refresh button at the top, to my surprise i had start from ID verification, voice and environment video verification after which I was instructed to continue from where I stopped which was section 2 of part A where my time froze. Haba!!! Me wey don finish and submitted part A before. Then I knew when time freezes your answers are not being recorded.
I was on the last section of part A when my time froze again, I pressed the refresh again and again but refresh no gree refresh I had to finish it, submitted and finished part B but submission was just rolling like rolling dollar. I closed the page cos I know my answers were not recorded due to time freezing.

I suggest everybody involved should write to dragnet because it may be a foul play on dragnet to allow some people move on. It looks absurd but this is Nigeria

Did you eventually hear from them?

ALEX OTTI only mission is to defraud Abia state completely, Mr governor everyday different lamentations from you no any meaningful project in reality since you stole the mandate.

I was wondering where you were hiding. You came out late today. Next time, be the first to comment.

Sensiblewizard:
Good afternoon everyone.

So guys, the below is the report of how the NNPC interview goes.

*Stage 1: Arrival:*
As early as 7am, crowd are already seated inside with some equally standing. You will need to hold your interview invitation on your hand before you can gain entrance into the building.

Once in the building, you will be given a consent form to sign, granting NNPC, throughout the interview process, the permission to access your academic/professional information from your schools and work area so as to confirm it tallies with you submitted.

*Stage 2: Verification:*

You will proceed to do credential verification with your Birth Certificate, NYSC, WAEC, and Degree certificates. For your date of birth, they are just interested in your Birth Certificate or Declaration of Age, and has no interest in whatever dob any of academic certificates bears.

Once you have been verified, you would be tied a wristband which contains your interview details. Here they will separate Sciences, Management Sciences, Engineering, Arts, Law, etc, and your wristband will bear your field of study, e.g. GT/Sci/01 (GT = graduate trainee; Sci = Science; 01 = your interview panel number. Both your wristband and interview invitation would be signed accordingly. Please ensure your invitation is signed o as you will need it throughout the interview process. After this, you will be taken to the Amphitheatre hall upstairs.

*Stage: 3 Amphitheatre Hall*

In the hall, you would be addressed on the program of the day. Your application number will be called so you can go with an usher to your interview panel room.

There is also "energy room" at the outside where you can go and eat light refreshments like coffee, tea, biscuits, snacks, and soft drink.

Please pay attention to when your application number would be called so you can go with your panel team.

*Stage 4: Interview:*

This is the main deal.

You would bombarded with questions MOSTLY RELATED to your COURSE OF STUDY. They will also ask you to elaborate on how you think your qualification matches with NNPC vision of being the Global number one.

Please, this is where you REALLY need to tell them why you think you are perfect for NNPC based on your course of study. Ensure you sell yourself well here. For this, you need to really understand your course of study well, and also understand NNPC's various subsidiaries as you need to link both. If your course of study has some terminologies, try using them while explaining your answers, this will give your answers some kind of technical depths and give you an upper hand. But ensure whatever terminologies you are using are all correct. They can Google anything there.

You'd be asked the typical "Introduce yourself to us". Just walk them through your name, qualification, work experience but I wont advise you to go deep into your work experience as you don't have much time. Be moderate in your answer here, not that you wont say anything o....just don't over stress it. You might also want to include the skills you learned from your work experience.

You might be asked some other question depending on the flow of the conversation, like any certification you included during application.

Like I mentioned before on this group, try as much as possible best to ensure all your answers have substance, even the ones outside your field of study. Also research one or two about oil and gas. They could ask you about renewable energy.

*Stage 5: Exit:*
When you are done with your interview, you go downstairs, following the " Exit" signs. You can also ask the security men. You will go to where you will be given your "subsidy allowance" of 100k upon submission of your wristband and interview invitation.

From there, omor na _hasta la vista_

Questions I was asked:
1. Introduce yourself to us.
2. What skills did your experience teach you.
3. How does your academic qualification match with NNPC's vision.
4. Renewable and non-renewable energy
5. Safety and environmental hazards (based on my HSE certification)

NB:

Questions differ. This is just for my field of study.

A Finance student told me they nearly killed him with questions on Investments.

So overall, know your course, know where you can fit in best in the NNPC, and know very very well how to link them together.

Thank you.

#COPIED

For those who are yet to do theirs, the guy above gave a perfect summary of everything that happened. Although I wrote for EH, not GT.
The questions aren't easy anymore though
, and nobody can predict what you'll be asked. Almost everyone i interacted with said they asked different questions for each applicant.
For some, it was from their CVS, for others , it was about NNPC operations, while for others, they were asked questions that weren't related to their course of study...but somehow relevant to the oil and gas sector.
I guess it's getting harder as the interview sessions progress.
At this point, it's impossible to even predict what your Panelists would ask you.
They stick to time, so its best to come early and with all your required documents.
Unlike people that did theirs earlier, the atmosphere is extremely tensed this week , so try as much as possible to relax...if you can.

Good luck to everyone.

Helloworld123:
These are some of my observations regarding this ongoing exercise.

1. The number of people invited range between 10,000 to 15,000. It's massive.

2. People on Whatsapp groups think this exercise is a team work. They go back sharing their questions on those groups, literarily handing over their advantage to strangers for validation. Not sure why - maybe to be seen as nice people or because they feel they have done too well in the interview and their own fate is sealed already. This will backfire in a manner many of them would not imagine possible. The competition is crazy and the odds are very low. This is the first thing you will be told at the interview.

3. Everyone's date has an advantage and disadvantage. Those whose dates fell in this past week are at an advantage because they can set the standards for others. The disadvantage, however, is that if their questions leak, those coming afterwards would be better prepared.

For those whose interviews are at a later time, they have the advantage of getting leaked questions that put them at an advantage. The downside is that the panelist have seen it all by that time. They subconsciously compare them to those who have wow them in the past. It becomes harder at those points.

I beg to disagree with you.
First of all, not up to 10,000 people were invited. It's probably about half of that number. However, remember that this is the first major recruitment since NNPC was privatized, and they are recruiting for all their subsidiaries. They intend hiring many people.

Now, the essence of these Whatsapp groups is to share knowledge and tips. Nobody knows it all.
If you go through the last 2019 recruitment topic on Nairaland, it has over 1000 pages. People shared ideas on how to scale through. They gladly did this and still got the job. This year, this topic is still on the 20th page. The Experience Hire topic is just on its first page after several months. It is not good at all.

Besides, how can a Petroleum Engineer be scared that an Accountant will take his role? How would a lawyer be afraid that if shares his interview experience, an IT guy will snatch his job from him?

There are also many other considerations that the interviewers look out for...Dressing, Eloquence, Confidence, Experience on the job etc.

Lastly, there are chances that the people who conducted the interview last week, won't be the same Panelists that will do it this week too. Everybody will be rated without bias.

Don't discourage people from sharing tips. Everybody's race is different.

Is there any EH who has gone or will be going for the interview?

PressMyButton:
When a scammer scammed a scammer, are you okay now?.

Did you read the article at all?

This page is dead silent!! What's going on?

Baddestguyp:
No changes regarding the interview date and time.

The last time for exam they changed some people's centre at the last minute...

Is it safe to book flight now?

It's a week + to my interview date in Abuja

This thread has been very very quiet

CHM11:
Almost everyone had the same experience when taking the skill test. It was a very terrible testing experience for a company like Chevron. Maybe it was Dragnet’s incompetence but it just was not a good experience.

Yemoskii:
The similar experience here, for Senior Facilities Engineer, timer got frozen, unable to submit assessment.

It was really frustrating. I was staring at my laptop, my laptop was staring back at me.
Dragnet really messed this up

Vanessaprince:
The test for the attorney position is a skill test. It is scheduled to hold on the 21st of December. Any pointers will be appreciated.

How did it go?
Mine was not pleasant at all. I had to wait up to 15 minutes before I could log in, despite downloading the secure browser and doing the practice tests days ahead.

Then, at some point my timer froze. I had to submit the test like that. It kept on rotating forever and then logged me out. Till now I don't know if my answers were submitted successfully or not.

crowniran:
Interview stage, so fast

Wow. In 24 hours. Seems they want to conclude everything this year

youngblackgee:
Check your mail. I've been shortlisted for interview.

Congrats. EH or GT?

Jenobi:
I did mine at Nasarawa State. I applied for the experienced legal position but when I logged in, to start the exam with the passcode allocated to me, I saw that the heading of my exam was boldly written "Information Technology". Questions were on ICT, HSE and engineering. Was wondering why they should prepare those type of questions for a lawyer. Only to be informed by the invigilators after I complained that the questions originally meant for me might have been mistakenly swapped with that of an engineering/ICT experienced candidate. Omo, I confuse ooo. I was also told that some centers experienced a similar issue. They said they have escalated the matter and hope to get a review. I am really sceptical about getting any favourable response from them. Please Who else experience a similar issue?

I can imagine how frustrating this must have been. Since they acknowledged their error, I'm hopeful that they will review the matter.

Goodluck to everyone writing today. Do well to tell us how it went

I don't understand why NNPC will post people outside their preferred CBT locations.

Considering the high cost of transportation, I think this is an avenue to reduce the number of candidates .

Idolla:
I got the mail that I was shortlisted for the CBT but till now I’ve not gotten another mail for my test center.
Anyone with this issue?

Same here. Have you now gotten yours?

Factcheck0001:
your country of less than 48 hours don Dey suspend people

This has got me rolling

Peterobiisathie:
95% of Ibos are happy about his arrest
Only the bastard ones are sad

Your'e actually correct about this

CyrusVI:


A new era is here

Waiting to see what October holds for us...It can only get better from here


God Bless PBAT

Did you read the write-up, or are you just programmed always to comment?

Marketers are not happy that they have to buy NNPC's product from Dangote. They want to be able to contract with Dangote independently.

The post literally said this : “We are asking Dangote to sell to us at the same price as NNPC. We don’t understand why he has to depend solely on NNPC to distribute its product when he has other willing buyers"

elipheleh:
She will be found. There is 99.9% probability that she got wondered outside and got lost

If this was in Ogun, Osun, Oyo or Ondo, her skull would have be harvested.

The yeroba tribe of West Nigeria are cannibals and ritualistic. Evil people. Their elders like one president is a known drug peddler in Chicago. Their women are in Libya as sex slaves. Ugly apes. Spit

How can you wake up in the morning with so much evil and hatred in your heart?

This is beyond the regular Nairaland banter. Your comment is very sick.

stuffs2002:
These people never voted Tinubu from the beginning.

The way the bigoted Seun Osewa and his hord of bigoted and hateful mods have been pushing all manner of anti Tinubu threads to front page is just too much.

The hatred Seun Osewa has for Muslims and by extension Tinubu is too much. Seun Osewa hated Tinubu ever since Tinubu defeated Osinbajo in the APC primaries. Seun Osewa then quickly switch allegiance to another Christian in the person of the Pandora criminal called Obi who Tinubu defeated in the final elections

Because people are complaining of the government, Seun is now anti Muslim and anti Tinubu? All of a sudden!

When all the propaganda against Obi was hitting frontpage, where were you? When all the rubbish from Reno and his likes made news, where was your voice?

Anyways, agenda must always agend.

He warned us. We didn't listen.

With the way Tinubu is going, we may hear that they are changing the National flag tomorrow.

tuoyoojo:
He bought his way to the presidency he is only loyal to those who put him there every other person can go and die for all he cares

But I don't blame him, I blame the people who go would go for Apc rallies in 2026 and still vote him again

My brother, that's the amazing part. There are people who will still queue up and vote for him. Its like juju

The most painful part is that these loans are not even taken for the betterment of the citizens. They will never be used to build roads, schools, refineries, or anything beneficial.

Rather, the money will be shared among themselves to buy luxury vehicles and private jets, while the masses suffer in hunger and starvation.

Then, these same citizens will be heavily taxed to pay off loans that did not benefit them at all.

Nigerian leaders are from the deepest part of hell.

Before now, I used to think that the President didn't have people telling him the truth. But that argument can no longer work.

The President watches TV and reads newspapers.

He has unlimited access to the internet. He can simply use his phone to go online and see what people are talking about him.

Why does he continue to remain unsympathetic to the sufferings of Nigerians? How can one be so blinded that he doesn't care if people starve to death because of his policies?

How does he sleep at night, knowing that he is the cause of at least 100 deaths per day?

What does it take to show a little mercy to your own people?

Thank you Ma for doing a great job with your children
