Someone here talked about 130k and either 50k on some allowance.

Fellow APL hopefuls,
having tried so hard to focus on my current job while waiting like d rest of us, I had to place a call to a relative (who by the way is about to made a GM or something like that)..After the usual pleasantries of a nephew calling an uncle, he was genuinely surprised that I was involved in d current recruitment.he asked why I have never mentioned it(cos we have met a few times after my interview) I laughed over it.. (main reason for not telling him is cos this uncle of mine is a stickler for merit and due process as in old school imperial college graduate)
Anyways, from the conversation, I observed he knew more than he divulged(wasnt surprised cos that is him) but bottom line,i got 4 points crystal clear..
1. The recruitment process even though it ran into bottlenecks vis a vis interference from some powers wasn't CANCELLED..infact let me quote him, "the amount of time and money that was invested in the process defeated all arguments from certain quarters for it's cancellation"

2. Yes,there were interferences at d end of the day but to his knowledge, it was very minimal.less than 5percent of total names.in his words, this is d most transparent recruitment process he has seen in his 27years in the system

3. GT list is actually ready but EH isn't entirely ready..According to him, they are still matching them to d different subsidiaries..i asked him how can that be cos I believed every EH from his resume and experience already applied to d positions best suited as advertised which should make placement easy. (eg, my work experience can only fit into NPDC) and his reply..that some subsidiaries may need 3 accountants whereas some may need 10 and most importantly,that some "interferences" also came with a subsidiary of choice.. (meaning some powers came with candidates and also demanded the subsidiary they should b posted to) hence some minor reshuffling

4..Lastly, that APL will come soon.i asked him how soon.. He said he couldn't place a date but it won't pass this last quarter 2019..i probed more and he gave a solid reason for his timeframe.The proforma invoices for the external (non Nnpc) SMEs (subject matter experts) that will be part of the GT training in edjeba has already been approved and the persons have already been notified as to their time schedules which includes this year. I argued dat the budget approved for the proforma invoices could be moved to budget accruals so that the system doesn't retrieve it/and it doesn't affect d next year's budget.. When I said this, he laughed and is like everyone involved in d budget for this recruitment is fighting tooth and nail for it to be concluded this year such that certain inflated figures won't be discovered..
He wished me luck and yabbed me to at least remember to call him if I was shortlisted..

Guys let's be hopeful and keep praying for God's grace last last..

I woke up to seeing this nice information and smiled. I remember when we’d wake up to 12 pages of tantrums and all what not.
Thanks for sharing.

Ladies and Gentlemen,I have read through your posts with keen interest.The insults and the bashing of people with sources and those without as to which info is credible is funny and ridiculous.
I just want to help a little bit with information that is available to me to help those in dire need of it.
I am a Managerial candidate and so I wasn't interviewed with most of you here.
Last week Thursday after the Presidential broadcast, the Minister of Petroleum ordered the NNPC Recruitment list as it was to be published. It was to be published in PUNCH newspaper.
There was pandemonium in Abuja as all the politicians and new management who have been lobbying for name replacements since Kyari took over would've been left without their candidates being put in the list.Even the Minister of Labour went to protest that the composition of the list didn't show Federal character as it was lopsided towards the West and not evenly spread.He was then educated that while Federal character may have a role in the invitation for interviews, only competence and merit are considered after passing the interview. He soft-pedalled but the other powerful politicians made so much noise that the Minister suspended the order to publish on Thursday,3rd October 2019 and gave them 5 working days to sort whatever irregularities they claimed was in the list before he went to South Africa for his 3-day visit. He is back now and will expect their report before it gets published. If he stays true to his first order,then this list will likely be out in the national dailies before emails and texts are even sent out.
I know kids of nowadays will complain about reading long write-ups. It is the bane of our country right now.
No insults please,I could have stayed in my corner just to read and watch misinformation fly all around.At our managerial level of application, our channels of communication with the NNPC are quite different. You may choose to believe or not.Have a great week, my people.

Hmm. Who else noticed this. Someone somewhere is about to lose his / her position. May it not be any of us here iJn. Amen.

BenFlash:
So, Oct. 17 is beginning to gather momentum.

#Jiang'sbirthday

Seemingly but one thing is sure. We will be contacted this year. Come what may.

Yesterday, a source told me before the next two weeks, Notifications would be out. He couldn’t give a specific date though and it’s his first information since so I was cynical.seeing a lot of people coming out now with rumors, it might be true. Maybe, just maybe we are about to smile.

So the transportation payment ship has long sailed. Ayahhhh

Naija truth don’t feel down. I’m totally not offended by your October 4th post. Majority didn’t believe it anyway. The one that hurt us was sniper lol. I believed that guy .
I know you spoke based on faith as someone deciphered. I commend your faith and pray for more grace. God bless you still.
Enjoy your evening guys.

Someone say we should demand an update without a hashtag. Sigh! When you condemn a process, you should provide a solution. I’m sure you know about the STAR approach in responding to situational problems. Mr Mosgoon Sir, nobody is staging anything. It’s way too early for that. People just want to know what is happening. A simple ‘relax, we are still collating results ‘ from an Nnpc staff will calm the pandemonium. It’s easy.
Anybody that that handles this in an uncivilized manner is on his/her own.
Another thing is that Nnpc might be trying to reduce information dissemination to the barest minimum to avoid interruption from top men with different interests.
Finally the silence might be in the favor of the Local man.
But a simple ‘we are working on it’ would do the magic .

Because Nlng recruitment lasted for 3 years, Nnpc should last for 6 years?.
Our judgement can be really funny sometimes.
Everyone is aware of the momentum that had backed the recruitment from inception.
Everyone had commended the process. The organization and speed has been second to none.
Heck it even goes as far as competing if not being better than the recruitment of multinationals.
Seeing that pace and standard, it’s logical for candidates to anticipate notification of the interview since September. As far as a lot of people are concerned, the process has been concluded.
What is going on now according to rumours is the adjustment and readjustment of the candidates that were picked. Some people that were seemingly qualified are no longer qualified enough. Some say some states were not represented equally even when we are aware that the list was scrutinized based on the quota system.
The whole drive has plummeted and some people have the boldness to come out saying Nlng took 3 years, some multinationals take longer. Shame on you!
The hashtag is not a bad idea however I do not support a retarded tag like Nnpcscam or the trolling likes. We have to be courteous. There’s nothing wrong in wanting to be in the know afterall this present shell recruitment that is abnormally taking time, people were curious. They asked shell and got a response that they experienced an overwhelming application so people should be patient as if you have not been regretted, you are still considered.
In this Nnpc, some people have been paid twice, some paid once, some that even took loan to travel have not been paid. If you call all the hotlines provided, none goes through. You email and you get no response, we are just like zombies yet some people have the audacity to say Nlng lasted 3 years.
As a Nation should we be going backwards or advancing! Is this the type of mentality you want to bring into Nnpc when you are recruited? Shame on you!
I support a better Nnpc and a greater Nigeria. Thanks.

Obasi001:
Gentlemen and Ladies,

Requesting for a status update of the ongoing recruitment exercise is a great idea but I'll beg us to be civilized in our approach. The hash tag '#Nnpcnascam' and other statements in that neighborhood are too rash and confrontational, it might misconstrue our original intent thereby causing more harm than good. #Nnpc recruitment 2019, #NnpcWeAreStillWaiting, #NnpcHowfar and other polite suggestions from members of this great house will be more preferable.
Above all remain positive, good will surely triumph.

You’re smart.

4th is here, no much banters. The end will justify the source. It’s only unfortunate if he is trying to play us but we cannot be played. Or can you?. APL notification shall come this year. I’m not sure how long the training would be. If it’s for a month, then we can do it this year and resume proper next year January

sukabakawate:
Apparently there were no payments today...

I remember when someone came here to say no fund was provided for the payment last week that’s why there was nothing. Haha.
I’d be surprised if payment continues. I strongly believe that stage is over and into the next one.

furrr:
Sir,
I haven't received TF
And I am sure there are others scattered throughout the dates ...
So I really pray payment hasn't been concluded as you allude to
Anyway as long as local man receives APL all will certainly be well

*almost everyone.
Sorry for the error.

panalyst:
Don"t want to say anything so i'm not quoted but there are various news. One thing for sure is that it is definitely happening this year and hasn't been cancelled. There was a management meeting on Monday and a board meeting today. Some rumors claim that the Monday meeting approved the process and from next week APL's will flow but i cant vouch for them because this is not a direct source just a hanger by in the towers that told me this.

The only two concrete sources said the same thing. it hasn't been cancelled and it is definitely happening this year. that's all they could give me. These sources i trust because they are definitely in the know. they are just being discreet

You are right

panalyst:
That's not how NNPC works. lol. It can be budgeted for but there's still a process before you get paid. As the money comes in, HQ accounts has to determine what to pay after salaries, outstanding payments to vendors, claims from staff etc. It is all not paid at once. So like i said, the last couple of weeks there were no funds allocated to that. expect payments to resume from this week to next week

No payment was allocated because everyone has been paid. All dates have received a massive payment.
If atall payment resumes after a break of 2 weeks, the access bank theory would come up again.
I personally think payment has been concluded.
Even when the suspension rumor was at its peak, payment was still made because all dates had not received massive payment.
The recruitment is moving forward please.
Everyone should just expect Interview success notifications now and take your mind off payment.
If you still get paid after now, thank God.
I’d just advise everyone to focus on the next line in the itinerary.
Success notifications.
Good luck.

64446:
Are we even sure the interview took place.
Perhaps we are all hallucinating

Are we even sure there was a vacancy. What if they wanted to check something

Sempumping:
FCC has not even received any list yet

Oct 4 ? I doubt ,but who knows
Anything can happen

Are we even sure the interviewers are done collating result.
Perhaps they are still ruminating on the cut off to use

But naijatruth, you have not clearly stated that you have a source. You could as well done some permutations and combinations and arrived at a specific date, convinced yourself that something is looming and then you are here to psyche us.
Do you have a source?
Lowkey easymoneysniper offended me o. It’s not a crime to relay an information. You trusted your source quite alright but seeing the predictions failed and you kept mute about it, you are taking us for a fool.
Unfortunately you might be here with a different moniker.
Sigh!

Clifwoods:
I'm certain that guy is joking, he decided to post that date because you posted October 4th.

If there’s a sequence, next week should be pregnant else let’s get a mattress, go to bed and someone would wake us with APL Alarm.

joobseekar:
First of all, i hope you're not the same as naijatruth2019, again, i hope neither of you is related to EMS, c12112 et al...
Now, how true is your "source"?

Jarus, please we need sign, you can reply us in parables like Jesus did in the Bible

Lol. I’m not the same. I just said a random date. Seeing someone comes shortly affirming the date is puzzling.
Like you, I hope it holds water.

Wait wait!
Eyysss!
Come back here.
I’m not sharing my October 4th glory with anyone

RayOB1:
APL?

October 4th

Please who has dragnet Abstract past questions. Not the routine one . I’ve written some Dragnet Abstract and they were very strange. Different from the ones I practiced with. You could see a radio and the next sequence is an apple then the next is a car . That type.
I apologize for going off track.

isholayusuff:
Some of us are still waiting for ODVI invite.

It’s strange. The only logical explanation is that It your performance is quite good but not very good, Shell would wait to see if a better candidate surface. In the absence of none, they would progress your application but where you seem to be in the lower echelon performance wise, you get regretted.
They are contacting the outstanding performers first. Uncontacted candidates would have to exercise patience till regretted.

RayOB1:
As sure as you are....maybe surer than you even.

My job role has very few professionals in Nigeria/Oil and Gas, the last job I took up with Oando, I was the only finalist for that job role out of hundreds of thousands who wrote the test, whereas other areas like HSE, Finance, Business Development etc. had scores of people remaining.

Very few people more qualified than I am professionally will apply to NNPC. It's only interesting to me because I just hit the number of years needed to apply for a more snr level than I am now in the industry.

My interview went very well.

As long as they will recruit up to 2 people for that role, I'll be there.

Mosgoon?
What’s important is that you believe in yourself. You are free to wish whatever. It’s a free world. So far your wish doesn’t hamper others.
Thread with caution on forums like this. It might not be as faceless as you think.
Thanks.

What will I not see in this thread

BenFlash:
Oh yeah I recall, eventhough it could be argued they were NEFT transactions that spilt over from the previous Friday

.
Smart! Then it can be argued that there was categorically no payment last week. This week would make it a double.

BenFlash:
Any calculated reason why none was done last week after the massive payments of the week before?

There was payment last week Monday but nothing happened on Friday.

Robocorp:
Yeah, i think so. And it's also safe to say the double payments witnessed earlier are actually payment errors.
The only big question now is, What is the faith of those spread across all dates that are still yet to receive.

There’s still a question mark. We cannot be certain till the end of the week.
