Jobs/VacanciesRe: Department Of Petroleum Resources - 2016 Graduate Trainee &experienced Hire Job by Ferguson0709: 12:11pm On Jul 10, 2018
Hello hopefuls,
You people should be calm. The stakeholders and powerful people picked their candidates appointment letters and give to them. DPR haven’t officially started calling or texting but they will do so soon. It’s only a matter of hours and days. The merit candidates will get messages. I repeat, the only pple that have their letters now are the stakeholders candidate and they are not up to 50.
Don’t give yurSelf HBP before you collect your letters o. Thanks all

Ferguson plz update us...I can see you
Good day, No update for now.
PS- My source is an ordinary Dpr staff(we served together) who isn’t in anyway directly related to this recruitment process. He just feeds me with what he hears and that’s all.
It’s only people like tamiwhatt, Neverdown, smartgrid and marvel we are looking up to now.

[quote author=Legend90 post=69033229]No zonal offices have any letters. All the letters are in abuja awaiting to be signed. The original letters had errors on them and had to be fixed and reprinted again, so they have to be signed again. 400 letters to be signed. Hopefully they'll all be signed again today. The letters were sent down to Abuja

Good afternoon fellow hopefuls. For those that cares to know, I called my source to get the latest from him and here are his words “you don’t need any update again”, it’s ready. I said someone said the CoC hasn’t been issued and he said “if DPR should take the list to FCC 100 times, they will issue it 200 times”
Goodluck everyone

Babagy823:
wallahi this is not a joke, i for once thought Coc has been issued, the list was sent to FCC but the chairman rejected the list, reason being DPR didnt follow federal charachter law and went and selected people they like (300 on merit my arse). this is something i heard this evening, just forget everythng and pray to God to be on the list. i have been patiently waiting for next week but this is the truth. never thought xxkape was right all this while, but its well.
I’m so sorry to say this but it’s either your source is lying or he’s not privy to information in the FCC. CoC has been issued long ago.
It’s only a matter of days now.... Very few days. Brace yourself

I heard applicants whose ages now exceeds the required age limit, no more than 30 and 40 for GT and EH will be dropped. How true?
Not possible.

Which position sir? Maybe candidates for technical roles were asked more questions?

SmartgridReborn:
Good afternoon fellow hopefuls.
I am excited to be back here on this thread. Even when I deactivated my former Smartgrid account, I knew I will eventually comes back. The heat was just too much then, so I had to leave the kitchen Lol.

I have been following this thread occasionally as guest, and over time, alot has been said. Some are true while others are not. Most times I feel the urge to reactivate my account and comment, but then I ask myself; Is that really necessary? You know that kind feeling where you just want to be in peace wink

I want to shoutout to Neverdown, Ferguson, Marvel and Co. For their numerous contributions. Take this from me, they were telling the truth. Though maybe the info is not 100% correct, but I am sure they have sources from within. Bravo.

I am also excited that our boss lady Tamihawtt is back. Everything she shares lately is true. I am very sure she has first hand info. Pls let's be mindful of our comments, if you have any objections pls say it without insulting anymore. Criticized objectively. Because we are hoping to be a future colleagues and lets start respecting one another from this forum.

Okay here are some of the updates from my side.
- FCC has already issued COC to Dpr. I am 100% sure.
- Appointment letters are typed
- Mr Tata has traveled for religious duties. Expected to return tonight or tomorrow.
- Postings are already sorted. Based on field of study and where you are needed.
- Inductions will be in July. And in batches.
- It's very possible to get emails and texts this week.
- Most of the successful applicants were chosen on merit.
- Mr Tata deserves some accolades. He really fight hard for the those who knew no one. One thing about him is straighforwardness, when he said no is no, and yes is yes. If only you know how he fight for you, you all will be praying for him. Most of the stakeholders thought he was joking when he said 'he can't help their candidates if they don't perform well on the test and interview' but he did exactly what he said.


Wishing everyone the best of luck.
Will be updating when more info comes in.
I pray it’s this week or hopefully next week

OutOfTheAshes:
If I am right, you were not asked more than 4 questions, while some people were asked about 7 to 8 questions. Why the variations in the number of questions?
Mine wasn't funny, they almost killed me with weird technical questions.
Was asked 3 questions and one of them was even “wats the name of the director of DPR
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Department Of Petroleum Resources - 2016 Graduate Trainee &experienced Hire Job by Ferguson0709: 2:39pm On Jun 18, 2018
Since we are all sharing our interview experiences, let me share mine. Got into the interview room and the first thing was abt my height. Asking if DPR was preparing a basketball team. Next question is where do o work and I told him, asked for my ID and after seeing it the interviewer said “we are looking for people like you who needs just little training since yu are already in a system like ours. Asked just 2 questions more and asked if I have a question and I said yes. I asked a funny question and it was all laughs.
But all in all, I’m not reading any meaning to the friendly interview. Though I’m so confident but I’m banking on Gods Grace.
JUNE JUNE JUNE
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Department Of Petroleum Resources - 2016 Graduate Trainee &experienced Hire Job by Ferguson0709: 2:54pm On Jun 16, 2018
My only objection is that the interview dates are not splitted according to test scores. It was just random groupings and nothing more.
Also, aptitude test scores very KEY

HRtechnique:
This conincides with what Ferguson said. Hence the June 10 day.

It is only a pessimistic, negative, obtuse individual who is so close minded and blind to growth, development and possibilities that wouldn't see the narrative and consistency in the turn out of events.

Neverdown, Ferguson, onyiridike, the returned Mr Tata man etc are basically all saying the same thing.

This doesn't mean you have to agree with them which I am also indifferent about but you don't fight against objectivity when you don't have a proof of yours.

So in the absence of none, I believe all of them until the letter comes and says different. No arguments.
Thank you so much. I just decided to take a back seat n watch events as they unfold. At least we shd listen to other people with sources too but I know what I know
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Department Of Petroleum Resources - 2016 Graduate Trainee &experienced Hire Job by Ferguson0709: 4:56am On Jun 15, 2018
suchsland:
Don’t mean to argue, but it doesn’t coincide that much, cos from Ferguson’s last post, he is still of the opinion that COC has not been issued, but stipulated for a later undisclosed date.
Hmmm. When I mentioned June 10, I categorically said CoC has been issued. It was only yesterday I said my source said maybe CoC was delayed hence the June 10 date not visible. Like I told you before, FCC gave their word on issuing CoC some weeks ago

neverdown999:
1. Kindly ignore the APL screenshot, it's fake.
2. DPR is not into any backyard recruitment- List of special candidates slots will not affect the merit slots, DPR did the needful.
3. The list is at FCC and unfortunately, I do not have updates on its status(Kindly get updates from folks with FCC link)
4. Pls, exercise patience- everything is still running smoothly and this recruitment is coming to an end in no time
5. It shouldn't take an excessive time to issue COC
6. Pls, don't lose hope!



7. Current DPR staff are aware GTs and EHs are resuming soon, they are waiting
8. At the same time, remember it's just 300+ names on the merit list- not all will make it
9. Formula Used: An aggregate of your exam score and interview score divided by 2.. Let me explain (Exam score is 100%, Interview grading is also 100%- if you score 80 + 50, that gives you 65% which is quite poor else you are from the less privileged states)
10. Engineers were preferenced, pharmacy got the lowest number of candidates, HR is fair etc.
11. A good number of EH were considered
12. If your average score is 80% upwards, you stand a good chance.
13. Federal Character is key, I doubt if there's any local government with 2 candidates
14. The lowest number of candidates from a state is about 5
15. Some states got between 11-16 candidates
16. I have received numerous emails, unfortunately, I won't reply or open any for reasons best known to me.


17. This month is still GREEN

Kindly Note: Those folks that interviewed candidates were playing mind games, they were looking for the slightest reason to mark you down, and like I mentioned earlier, their friendly appearances and warm smiles don't mean they scored you well. Answering all questions correctly means little too. The following things counted;
a. Your presentation skills
b. Problem-solving skill
c. and your facial appeal.

Most HRs act based on emotions and what they see.

Cheers
Thank you Neverdown
Like I said, merit is 80%... a lot of Engineers, least state is 5... The FCC has no issue with the list and they gave their words about issuing the COC on so so date, hence my mentioning of the 10th of June but they didn’t issue COC before that date and promised a new date wich is best kept anon.
All is very close and set.
Thanks once again NEVERDOWN
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Department Of Petroleum Resources - 2016 Graduate Trainee &experienced Hire Job by Ferguson0709: 6:36pm On Jun 10, 2018
In my life, I try to make new friends and not enemies. When I said I was so sure, I said it Cos I so much believe in the person that gave the info and at the end of the day, it didn’t come to pass. This same person gave me the info of the Dec 4 interview which I shared here. Why am I sharing what I heard? Is it for me to be a god and be worshipped? It’s just to calm nerves and give hope to people that this recruitment will soon be over. I personally said on Friday that was gonna be my last post but den I had about 10 messages from people telling me not to quit. It wasn’t because they trusted me or saw me as a god, it was because they believe people make mistakes in life and you dont need to get down because of this. He mentioned integrity, it touched my bone marrow. I’ve personally called Dpr in February and they told me they will call people by March and up till now they haven’t. Does it mean they are liars? Like I said, people don’t know what’s going on underground. People don’t know. This is DPR, things can change very fast, that’s why I always say we shd pray. Honestly I bear no grudges against you for saying I don’t have integrity. I do have it, I just changed my mind.
We are all here to achieve a common goal. I believe in unity.
Peace be unto everyone

dozylala:
I just discovered Ferguson's real comment has finally been deleted..... Sir, you r highly regarded and appreciated. However, integrity suggests you stop commenting on this thread if after 11:59pm tomorrow your predictions doesn't come true.
You will particularly win my respect if u prove to value your integrity and stay out of future comments on this thread... Come what may, I and many others will be looking out for you when all is set.
Regards!
Firstly, none of my posts have ever been deleted on this platform. Secondly, you said for integrity sake I should step down, isn’t that funny? I didn’t remember forcing anyone to believe my info when I gave it out. And I don’t think I owe anyone apology for disseminating the info I get whether it came to pass or not. See, I will remain here and give infos I hear and nobody can tell me otherwise. Yours is to just turn deaf ears to it or you shd walk away wen yu see my post. I said I will never post again if the info concerning on the 10th didn’t come to pass, then I changed my mind. I’m not posting anything here to please anyone o, it’s just for those who choose to believe.
The most important thing on my mind now is for me to be among the lucky ones and not to be dragging if my info is right or wrong

Okay if they were scammers why didnt they ask for a fee or smth? all they asked or wanted to confirm was about his degree anyway time will tell. I dont know honestly. I pray we all get APL at the end of the day thats what actually matters.
Amen.

Good day house, my second post here I think but straight to the point.

@sir alex fergonson n @pekeyim
Sir Alex the truth is that pekeyim is right bout the call to confirm degree, it wasn't a call for APL but just to confirm degree n i got diz frm a friend he told me diz n I can say that i saw the call log n also the text last week but base on tins ppl will say I decided to keep shout. Am jes saying this to back pekeyim.

Sir Alex fergoson i respect u very well but diz guy is right. We all want diz tin to end. I don't have source i don't no anybody the truth is that u n others here in NL are the people I get info from.

I just thought I should say diz, regards to all, May God ans our prayers, amin.
Alright. Best of luck to us all

Please those sending me email requests I have not been able to sign into this very e-mail for a while now. One thing is certain there was a call, if it is genuine or not, time will tell. Because my friend has never lied about such before this time.


All the best and fingers crossed. monday is around the corner.
I can categorically tell you that call wasnt from DPR. Anything that makes them call anyone now, it’s to collect APL. The stage of what course did you do is over. List done and dusted already.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Department Of Petroleum Resources - 2016 Graduate Trainee &experienced Hire Job by Ferguson0709: 2:55pm On Jun 09, 2018
Anyone who claimed to have been called by DPR for APL is either lying or being called by his/her friends. NOBODY and I repeat NOBODY have been called as at this present moment. You all shd chill and be aware that when the calls starts coming in, we will all know.
Success to everyone

Fergie you have really done well. Your patience, choice of words and manners speak volumes of your leadership qualities.
That said, pls could you confirm when the COC from FCC was was issued? #Thanks#
Honestly I don’t know when but it wasn’t issued in the last 2 weeks

It is very likely potential candidates are contacted today. Almost 100%.

If the calls don't come, then it means something inevitable happened.

Good morning fellow hopefuls,
Like I promised, I won’t make comments here again if the letters don’t drop today.
Let me just give the parting shot -
*List is ready, why they haven’t called is still a mystery.
*Merit is like 80%
*The recruitment won’t pass this june
*CoC issued already,
*Least state has 5 intakes

May the Almighty God favour me and every other persons.

Pls believe if you want to and disregard if you so pleases. It doesn’t change anything

Thank you. So what if I am already working somewhere, how do I tell if DPR is worth choosing over my current job? When you say massive, is it above 5 million, 10 million or what? When does the allowance come in?

Yes, the allowances are not included on the offer letter, what you see there is the basic. But from findings, the allowances are quite massive and it varies with department and location. The overall package is usually treated as confidential, no one will divulge it to you.
You just said my mind. Couldn’t have said it better. The allowances are very thick ��
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Department Of Petroleum Resources - 2016 Graduate Trainee &experienced Hire Job by Ferguson0709: 6:05pm On Jun 01, 2018
For most of you that’s being pessimistic abt the June 10 so as to shame me or anybody, what’s yur gain in life? Isn’t it even good that we stop posting what we hear here and wait till it happens so that haters won’t have anything to say abt us. The same reason why Tamihawt and smartgrid left here. If a prediction doesn’t come to pass, it doesn’t mean the speculator is lying. A lot of people don’t know the magnitude of this DPR job. Things change fast and very quick, that’s why I say we shd pray always.
The recruitment was supposed to have been concluded in March.....
Still standing with the 10th of June. Wish you all good luck
