Nigeria is always Nigeria shaa. It's like a curse. Professionalism isn't our thing.

I remember when applying for my msc in one of the best universities in the UK, I always had a firsthand correspondence with the university despite the 1000s of applicants they would be dealing with. I was very impressed and remember saying to myself they were treating me as if I was the only applicant, being the first time I ever had such treatment.

Fastfoward, I had never had any issues corresponding with any of the numerous jobs I had had to apply for in the UK. I was so carried along I knew exactly what was happening at any point of the recruitment stages. All I had to do was check my account online, send and email, or call.

I wonder when Nigerian companies will start treating potential employees with the respect they deserve and appreciate the fact that the need to impress is twoways. It is embarrassing that even NLNG isn't immune to such unprofessionalism.

Any anti Buhari thread does get up to 3 pages... Because APC e-rats avoid these topics like ebola... And they are dey majority here on Nairaland.. Roughly 80 percent

Forkdict, i am a fan of yours! In fact, your post just gave me goose pimple, but i will say something here in coming weeks. Meanwhile i have joined the waiting club of NLNG. if you don't have faith and strong will, this is one of the most difficult times psychologically. Meanwhile, @ forkadict, have you guys been reinbursed for your trans-fare to the interview venue? How long apart did it take after the interview? I just need to put 2 and 2 to deduce something. We never get anything, at least the 1k alert could have been a good pointer to something to hold unto in terms of solving the myriads of post-interview puzzles and questions buzzing up n down my head and those of my new friends.

My reply will be

Me: what is sex

this isn't a matter of pdp or apc ,but the person presented and the person ruling. There is no amount of waking up you can do for buhari,he simply doesn't know what to do that is what I am saying. He is confused and everything around him is strange.bros,how do you wake up a 75years old man to start acting and behaving like a 40 or 50 year old? Age isn't on his side and he hasn't even developed himself academically to be able to face the nation problems and challenges as a civilian president

onatisi:
majority of us that supported gej did it because there was no better alternative,if a person like pat utomi or even atiku had contested many ppl that voted for pdp would have voted for them. Anyone that was alive during buhari first term between 83 and 85 will tell you how docile and weak buhari is .idiagnon was the main anchor man and that was why ibb and co had to trick him to Saudi Arabia for hajj before giving buharo dirty slaps and beatings out of aso rock. The way this nation is now,buhari is no longer in control he is just there as a dummy figure the same way he was during his first tenure. The budget will be written from Lagos and approved by tinubu before buhari can do anything . Just wait and see. The FG will borrow ,borrow,borrow until there is no other option than to sell this nation, what happened in Lagos and osun state in the area of debt accumulation is what will happen to Nigeria as a whole .

the same thing i met. i just lucked up and faced it with God. All that will happen has already been destined from the onset, so hoarding info or not. The chosen of the Lord must stand. That is why i even didn't care to exchange phone contacts at interview venue because after my little inquiry and chit-chat with some guys who just bagged into me trying to know where i was working (just to gauge their chances). Siege Mentality! I discovered that they all were ardent followers of nairaland NLNG threads. They come and read - gain insights and gather info but won't contribute and share their own experiences and thoughts. I left the venue solo. Let us all stick to our isolation, no need to form alliance or team till we get to bonny, that is if it is God's wish that we even get to bonny.

I learnt something in this NLNG recruitment about connecting with people on nairaland even when it seems we all are chasing one common "limited" chances of success. A guy opened a thread asking who have received an invitation from NLNG, nobody responded. I responded to the guy in affirmation. We connected offline, and it happened that he graduated from my alma mata/department, but my junior at that and he had already collected his certificate, which i never knew was ready for collection. He told me to rush to school and pick up mine by all means so as not to jeopardize my chances at interview - for it looked some how for older grad to present statement of result while he the junior presented original certificate. I had 5days to get this before interview, God helped me, i did. Guess what? at interview, one candidate who graduated from same school with us came for interview but with statement of result. He is on this nairaland, he read that thread on our recruitment, yet he chose not to respond. had he communicated on that thread, he also would have known that our alma mata have started issuing out certificates. well, he was shocked to be singled out during accreditation and questioned why his junior (me) in school came with certificate and he (older set) came with statement of result? After the interview he called me to inquire in amazement if i really graduated from same school with him. I understood his surprise because i too have done all i could to get my certificate before but it met brick wall. No man is an island. Had he connected with us on nairaland he too would have known that his certificate was ready for collection. see in this life, nobody is in competition with me. I am only competing against myself - just to strive and beat my earlier records. simple!!

what am saying in essence is, guys ripe urself of these siege mentality and that feeling that you are competing against every naira, post and land. For me, what is mine is mine. if i dont get NLNG job, it is not as a result of what information i shared or how i gave out my success secret. No!! it is because it is not saved2serve's divine choice, though it may be humanly my choice. At the end of the day, i prefer divine courses to abound for me above my humanly wishes.

onatisi:
[b][/b] you don't know buhari,if you like cry blood ,insult his father or mother,nothing moves him ,he will only act when feels it is time. Someone that spent 7 months thinking about who he wants to work with,how many months do you think it will take him to finish studying the petroleum industry He needs to study it as if he is studying for waec or jamb before he will know what to do ,then he will spend another 3months deciding when to act. So pls bro don't be in a rush ,na like that you go dey queue for filling station till January so better get used to it. Sai Baba ,sai buhari ,change .

Saved2Serve:
Hewww!!!! What a long walk to success. Finished by 10:43 am. At the venue, we were a total of 7 candidates from the 36 states of the country, 5 dudes and 2 damsels. Finished accreditation and validation test, proceeded to oral interview made up of the H.O.D, process engineer, HR personnel and a guy from production dept . The questions were more of technical and behavioural. After the introduction of the panel members by themselves I was asked to introduce myself. I started well and ended well. Then the H.O.D went so technical, i mean in depth. ;he fired all cylinders on all fronts, i gave him responses that made him shake head with a smile on his face as if we both attended same gas treatment training in Aberdeen. I knew the technical phrases and terminologies he was expecting to hear and I was dishing it out to him well. Never forgot my S.T.A.R approach to behavioural interview questions. rest of the interview was wonderful. I killed it by God's grace. The validation test was cool, a couple of the questions I found in the first test were repeated, i guess it was to really validate the candidacy of the previous test taker.it was just there!!! (Lol). To God be the glory, he has the final say. At the end of the day either way the pendulum swings na GODWIN.....Thank you all for your prayers.

No information from a good 'sauce' but I have one from a 'gander'

firstEVA:
With the appointment of Babatunde Fashola as Minister for Power, Works and Housing, it is very clear that the president has so much confidence in Fashola, I am tempted to conclude that if not for the negative response which would have greeted a muslim/muslim ticket for presidency, Buhari would have picked Fashola as running mate. This is his own smart way of making Fashola his second in command. Osibanjo is just there like a piece of ornament.

Saved2Serve:
will answer just two of your questions distinctively and others would share a generic rejoinder. OK! yes i am an EH. 'group candidacy' means i am part of the last batch of applicants currently at the farthest of the NLNG recruitment stages (dnt ask me about my 'sauce' or 'gander'). The reason why other EHs n prolly GTs are holding on for us to tie up this whole recruitment issh as a bunch.

Then all other questions of yours has this as answer, "You wanting to be certain about my assertions still does not change the fact that Nov, 30th by 5:58pm is a day to reckon. Enough of these inductive and deductive reasoning with my recruitment journey. It took forkadict way longer time than it took me. I am on my last lap just under 13months of role advert. So just keep your hope alive. Away from this bro, the expected gross remuneration for EH with 7 - 10years experience is between 18 - 25million/annum.

Saved2Serve:
15th october...i guess my group's candidacy and recruitment process is affecting the GTs and other waitlisted EHs. Dont worry, we all will be concluded upon this november. Dec will be a one month grace for EHs who would notify their current employers of their resignation. January is a fresh and clean slate to start a "NEW LIQUID LIFE"

Sagamite:
From the daft opinion you pulled from your moronic arsse?

Sagamite:
But the all support you ashawo means of survival?

Sagamite:
You are a cretinous fuuktard!

So you are back to running again when you realise you have to name 5?

Fuuktards come online and give their unsolicited dumb opinions that they can't defend.

Look at the cretin calling Fashola mediocre.

sandraokosun1:
nt just abt lagos having igr, its a complex volatile state ask ambode why he cant even manage what he meant how much more add to it, is it nt same igr now with an apc fg.

vantage7:
It was okoope, beht erm...dis guy wey u don berate finish also been dey constantly tell us say de GT process get as e be say things don slow down for dat area.

Sagamite:
I gave you 5, you were running without even naming one.

What stupidity are you demonstrating by saying "Okay, it's now one and no longer five. I think we are getting somewhere".

You did not understand the statement I made that you could not list one?

Now tell me why you think Duke was better than Fashola and then list the other 4 that would make your list and DON'T RUN now.

Sagamite:
So you are telling me you can't name 1 person, not even 5 people, more competent than him?
