Good 2 hear u r doing great. Am good too, still working with my COY. Was in Abuja last month for the Nigerian Society of Engineers' national conference & AGM. Spent few days & then back to my town. A top manager from NERC by name Engr. Wudil contested & won one of the three VP positions of the NSE. I had wanted to meet him & make enquiry of happenings in the commission but he was too busy so i couldnt. They are supposed to recruit this year but they didnt which i think it's because of the absence of a Chair. Though a friend of mine informed me that some few individuals have been recruited which i believe is true looking at the Nigerian factor. All the same we wait & see what happens next year. Remain blessed.

bappahman:
head is very important,

Yes ooo. I wonder why untill this moment there is no head in that commission even as Mr. President has nominated some 1 to the senate since April this year to be confirmed. This NA sef

brosiye99:
@bappahman: How is it going? Please let us know when you get in. Up till now NERC doesn't have a substantive chairman. Seems NEMSA is the one showing more regulatory action in the sector. NERC has become a bit quiet.

@brosiye99...what's up? How hav u been? Nice 2 hear from u.

bappahman:
thanks, will try to get in

I wish u all the best

bappahman:
thanks, so will you pick nerc over energy commission?

Definitely, u can't compare na. Places like NERC r few in government agencies n parastatals. There is a huge difference between the 2.

bappahman:
please do u know the salary structure at nerc

I don't really know exact but they have a very good structure with lots of allowances and trainings. That's all I can say

DouglasHoc:
@GMB4REAL, @FATDICK, how things. It's been a while you guys visited the thread. This thread is obviously lacking relevant information. Your input at this point will be highly appreciated.

My Brother, 4 me I dey ooo. A single day won't pass without me checking the thread at least twice. U know this period there is no much to say. A lot of ppl helped others with info as regards the test so there is actually no much to say. We will see what happens from now on & will keep u informed of any news. Thanks 4 ur concern. Really appreciate

that's true!! anyways can I msg you privately? thanks for your responding sha

Y not? U r absolutely free

omelemao:



that's true!! anyways can I msg you privately? thanks for your responding sha

U r most welcome. I've PM u already. Respond

omelemao:
where's my man @GMB4real, please how long will this recruitment exercise last for? any ideas?

My guy i dey ooo. Been seeing ur question but i'm a bit reluctant 2 respond 2 u because som ppl will tag u a liar after u've given out an info eventhogh it is a rumor. We all circulate rumor here as non of us is a DPR staff & som of them turn out 2 be true. At this tension filled time, even some insiders can't giv u a genuine info but just speculations.
As 4 ur question, my source told me that they intend to complete this recruitment between now & year's end & by 1st Q next year, the new recruits will start working. This is what i heard & not my assumption. I am only saying what i was told (true or false).
Some times it is better u keep whatever update u hav 2 ur self & may be better inform those interested in private. Have a nice w/end

omolizzy:

Mine is still pending Sha but thanks. As for the general,you must like am by fire by force.

I advice u dont hesitate in ur preparation simply because urs is pending. Pending simply means neither approved no rejected & every applicant once had pending b4 eventually changed. So my Sister, believe, pray, prepare hard & leave the rest to God, u may never know. After all u absolutely have NOTHING to loose & everything to gain simply because u studied.
As for the title, ah if u force it on me i may disappoint u ooo cos am not that charismatic 2 be a general.

goodwalima1985:
So then its possible to have some approved turndown and vice versa for the test

@goodwalima1985 my brother, I didn't say this. And my prayer is that any person on this forum that has seen approved should go all the way successfully.
When I got the info yesterday I never wanted to say it here in order not to demoralise ppl. some ppl dug further & confirmed what I was told so I decided to clarify. After all I have said b4 that I will share any useful info with all & that is exactly what I am doing. Thanks 4 ur inputs

[quote author=omolizzy post=58407502][/quote]
@omolizzy my sister, thanks a lot. I didnt 4get u & never will I.
As 4 the general title u r putting on me is too big 4 me ooo. The GMB is an abbreviation of a town I like. Hop u r preparing well? u better do ooo, use anything relevant u think can be helpful.
Have a nice day

afosahid:
Good Morning @GMB4REAL. I have followed this thread closely and just like you, my application was rejected. I applied for Mechanical engineer EH and I believe I fulfilled all the requirements.(8 years experience, Mech engr. 2.2, age: less than 30 as at December 2016 & lots of professional certifications in the oil & gas fabrication industry)

I just called the DPR helpline now just to know if it is possible to get some feedback as to why some of the applications were rejected even though applicants met the requirements in terms of age and qualifications.

The person that responded was EMPHATIC that the information on the portal should be disregarded. I went further to tell him that some applications have been approved and he insisted that unless I have another source to get authentic information, what he has told me is the current situation with the DPR exercise. He went further to say as long as you have your reference number, you will be contacted (for me, this is not possible)

I went further and asked my colleague to call the other line if someone else would pick up and give a different information. My colleague called and the voice that picked up was the same person that spoke to me earlier. He gave my colleague the exact same response I got when I spoke to him earlier

Now this is a source of concern, my normal instinct would be to move on and just believe this DPR job is not mine, but on the other hand, what if there is a mix-up and it will be resolved

Please if you have any source where you can get feedback as to why some applications were rejected (for some of us who believe we met the requirements for the positions we applied for) as seen on some of our portals, please pursue it.

I look forward to your feedback.

Thanks

Gud Morning my brother. I actually like your courage.

I believe u must hav seen my post yesterday when i said i called a guy (DPR staff) whom i meet monthly during NSE branch meetings. I hav disclosed what transpired between us but i deliberately avoided to disclose 1 other thing which is "that he is advising me to disregard the portal thing because they were even told at 1 of their meetings (Union & Mgt) that about 90,000 shortlisted candidates will be contacted via SMS & not the portal"
I deliberately decided not to disclose it here as i dont want to cause confusion but as i said that was what he told me & he even went ahead & said the reason is that the portal thing has technical issue right from the beginning.

I hav a colleague here in my place of work who also has a friend working in the head office but currently out of office but will resume today. His own is showing pending & the friend told him that he will find out everything & feed him back. So as soon as i hav an update, i will get in touch with u.

Meanwhile like i said there are som info u cant discuss here because of their sensitive nature & therefore i suggest we chat in private. I have PM u. Send me ur no. so i can contact u later. I'm a bit busy now. Thanks one again.

fatdick:
GMB4REAL, I know a lot of people got approved without any influence but many people here will still not admit that they sought extra help at some point. Bukola Saraki sent names to Alasoadura Donald. Dogara sent his names, Nwokolo also did. Some senators sent individual letters. My senator alone forwarded more than 5 names. Kachikwu had his list. I know this may not be a guarantee to the job but at least it helped many to scale through this shortlisting stage even if they wont admit.

I see, God help us all

fatdick:
are you saying Msc without up to 4 years experience is enough to be approved for EH? As at Oct last year, I had 3 years experience but still chose not to apply for EH following an advise.

I have 2 of my mates while in school whom were approved & we share same degree class, about same number of years of experience & both of them without Msc & one without professional qualification. Then another of our colleague with same everything + Msc & professional qualification yet not approved. I think only them can explain the criteria used in the shortlisting because there are so many contradicting facts.

My ppl, i just called 1 of my source whom i meet monthly during Nigerian Society of Engineers meetings. He's a staff working in 1 of the field offices & who also is a union member (PENGASSAN i think). He told me that the aptitude test is likely to come around this July end or early August. He also said that in 1 of their union meetings with the mgt, they were informed that about 90,000 applicants will be invited for the test via SMS. Both GTs & EHs will write the test. He said they were informed by the mgt about serious lobbying by the NA members to have slots 4 their candidates & this is the main reason why it took DPR this long to shortlist & write test. Infact, according to him the NA members hav at some point threaten to cancel the whole thing if their interest is not met.

omolizzy:

I'm honoured sir. Please, what is your say on people whose applications are still pending?

Well I think they are probably treating the applications batch by batch, so 4 those whose applications still read pending successful submission, I think they should pray hard. Getting shortlisted for job test is the most difficult stage of a recruitment in my opinion because this is the only stage that doesn't depend on the applicant while for the rest of the stages (test & interview) they depend on the individual because all u need to do is doing the right thing at the right time (studying hard & praying to be lucky)

mayoor15:
The general himself, love your selflessness, may God grant your greatest heart desires.....

Thanks Oga mayoor15 & God bless u. The general title u placed on is too much 4 me abeg. The abbreviation in my account name doesn't signify the general rather it signifies a town I like so much

My good people, at this point in tym I think brainstorming on likely questions is key. 4 those who are interested in the circulating past questions, just see above in this page for the link where u can get all the questions being supplied. The questions are even PTDF old past questions, though am not saying u shouldn't study it. At this point, study everything u can lay ur hands on in order not 2 be taken unawares e.g GMAT 2008/2010 practice questions, questions on ur profession I.e Engr, Sci, & so on, ur current affairs too could prove important, knowledge about DPR too could be good. Just read wide sha. After all there is a saying: DO NOT PUT ALL UR EGGS IN ONE BASKET.
We should keep in touch & any info we get from our sources we share here 4 d benefit of all in the spirit of oneness.

omolizzy:

I'm a silent reader but I know your outputs here were and still are precious, so sorry for what happened but every disappointment they say is a blessing in disguise this will be a stepping stone to your greatness.
Here is what I observed for the experienced hire, I think you guys are "Overqualified" for them and maybe cos they feel where you are working presently is good enough. My observation though.

Thanks Sis 4 d concern. Remain blessed.

omelemao:
@GMB4REAL, maybe you should ask your contact what the possible criteria was for disqualification. because you seem overqualified by the information you gave
. or was it a random selection? I'm surprised to be honest. However, I must thank you for all your efforts. you really really tried.

I don't think that is necessary now my Bro. U know in lyf u don't always get all u pursue but all that God destined 4 u. Am sure it's going to be a waste of time & energy to dig why what happened happened, instead I rather prefer we keep helping each other in the house particularly the approved ones to pass their test.

Structuralman:


@GMB4REAL: I am also really sorry and surprised to hear that yours was rejected. I really want to thank you for all the valuable and timely information you provided to us all on this forum. You have done really well! God is planning something bigger and better for you. Remain blessed.

Thanks so much Bro for ur concern. Really appreciate it. God shower His abundance blessings upon u. Best regards

meetgaya:


Wishing you God's favour in your endeavors. Pray for us to reach the final stage.

I will Bro by God's grace. I pray all the lucky ones in the house go all the way & scale the last hurdle successfully

FixNaija:


Bro #Muchrespect for you

Thanks Bro & 4 u too. Remain blessed

omelemao:
GMB4REAL. you really helped the house with information. so sorry to hear that yours was rejected. please guys anyone who is successful at the end, do remember GMB4REAL, this guy really tried for Us all. why you think yours was rejected though?


take care

Thanks 4 ur comments & concern. I will share any useful info from my sources with the house till the end by God's grace. As 4 ur question on why I think on the rejection I have these to say: only the authorities can explain. I know that I have tried my best to apply carefully & accordingly, I applied for the EH cadre having about 8 yrs working exp. as power & electrical engr. I am a registered Engr. & belong to 3 other professional bodies + NEBOSH & 1st aid Intl certifications. & for age, still in mid 30s. Let me just say that there may be other better candidates from my place & also that is what the Almighty has destined 4 me. I never wuld hav disclosed info about myself if not 4 ur question. Have taken it in very good faith. Good luck to ALL the lucky ones in the house.

fatdick:
GMB4REAL, ifyfrank, raphafire and others whose applications were rejected. May God compensate you with something better this year and may this never be a setback but rather a stepping stone to success for you. Wish you the best ahead.

To those who were approved, wish you all success ahead.

Ameen my Brother, thanks a lot for ur courage. God bless u

ifyfranc:

mine too is showing rejected

Did u apply for GT or EH? It will be well bro

Emaimo:

This works bro. Thanks a million. My status is approved

Congratz, wish u all the best.

Emaimo:


No be password matter bro.
They say my email is not found in their record even when I have the printout of my registration

I will advice u try this as it once worked 4 me. If ur username & password is saved on ur system or phone, count the number of digits of ur password & u find it more then delete the last digit & try. Just my opinion cos it once happened with me

Guys it is true ooo, check ur accounts. The thing is around the corner. Mine for the 1st time has changed & unfortunately it is rejected. Goodluck to all approved.
