Info has it that resumption is very, very soon, like "first-week-of-next-month" soon. So if medicals will be next and there's just 3 weeks left of what remains in March, interviews can safely be said to be over pretty soon, maybe tomorrow.

That makes sense. Thanks.

I really think it's based on performance. The best in the second stage assessment were called first in that order till the very last person. Does anyone know when the interviews will end?

opidalo:
From what I observed yesterday, I met 8 people when I arrived. That's 9 people plus myself as at the time. Shortly after, 2 more guys came in, making 11. As I was doing the documentation exercise, I caught the sight of 2 more guys in the lobby. From then till I was taken to another floor for my interview, I noticed no other person. Also, the lady attending to the documentation process went about doing other things so we may safely say no other people arrived after those last two. So that makes 13 people in total. For the 3 days, if we assume same number if people per day, there would be a total of 39 invited.

It's just what I observed and I may just be totally wrong.

Thanks a lot. I imagined they wouldn't be many as the company would spend a fortune paying "tokens" for people's transportation otherwise.

opidalo:
Well what can I say! I think @peterbam's analysis throws everything open. There shouldn't be a final say on it until you receive a regret mail (God forbid). What they'll do first according to @peterbam is to look at the interviews they've conducted so far and see if they can get the number of people they want. Otherwise, they call more people.

Please do you know the number of people that have been called up for interviews so far? I know there were about 203 or so people in the second stage.

MuskElon:
Can someone please point me in the right direction . I can't seem to get past the hidden tests.

def is_isogram(word):
if isinstance(word, basestring):
w = word.lower()
if len(w) == 0:
return word, False
elif len(w) == len(set(w)):
return word, True
else:
return word, False
else:
raise TypeError('Argument should be a string')

The "if len(w) == 0" line is to denote an empty string, right?
I think that may be the problem.
Try *if word is " " or word is ""*
" " denotes an empty string
also a "tuple" dictates that you use
"return (word, False)"
There has to be a bracket for it to be a tuple. I am basing my response on what I have seen now. I have not checked to see if these corrections will solve your problem. I believe my suggestions will help. Good luck.

a good samaritan should pls help me call or tell someone to inform hr that i am stuck in traffic and might run late. i am scheduled for 9am. my name is Daniel. thanks...or bettet still hook me up with a contact. thanks

The first 30 minutes are used to move you guys to the senior staff canteen and get you settled in. By 9:30, you will be given a safety lecture for circa 20 minutes. Just try to get there by 9:30 as the safety briefing is important and you will be required to sign a sheet stating that you were there to hear it. In my time people got there while the safety guy was giving his lecture. I guess you can stretch it to 9:45 tops.

Hey! I failed my home study test and I finished it all. Please, what are the requirements for passing the test? Does it mean that the tests are extremely competitive in the sense that even failing a multiple choice question could disqualify you? Or is there more to this such as the personality/logical reason test being part of the home study assessment? Please help me.

[quote author=Brigz post=48624262]Hey!! what' mail sent the assessment invite because I haven't heard anything from them, wether I passed or I failed, and I applied for the brewing trainee 2016.

And whats this I'm hearing about another assessment to occur on the 29th of this month ? Please is this legit?
Why haven't I heard anything about my status yet!! OMG I'm freaking out now.

Check your spam box. If there's no email there it may be that the invites are in batches. I am not sure. Hope this helps. Regarding the assessment centre (the next stage), there are different dates.

Hello OP,

I want to apply for a tier 4 visa for my bachelors degree by End of August, then fast track it so it can come out before school resumes. Last year, when I wanted to apply, there were some things that weren't written in the gov.uk site such as taking passports or filling a handwritten visa form. Please, if it's possible, can you tell me how I go about the entire process now? If you have answered a similar question before, please just copy and paste your response. It would be very much appreciated.

youthofnaija:
Pls is it for brewing or packaging? And is the mail from workforce?

Brewing, and yes, the mail was from workforce.

EazyMoh:
Please how do you locate the job openings. I can't seem to find a way to apply for anything after registration and updating my profile.

I think the job opening has been removed. I tried clicking on the link and the job opening had been removed from the website. Don't know if it is a glitch. It may be worth checking from time to time.

Sprintx24:
Guys are you sure this is for real? I am currently on the page, logged in and there are no job openings or am I not on the correct webpage? Check out the attached screenshot.

It's very real

Jacko01:
My biggest regret all my life is reading petroleum engineering

If i read mechanical i know wher i for dey

Stil to God be the glory

No petroleum on said list because truly we are not needed

In the last recruitment drive, petroleum engineers applied and were selected. The only problem is they had to read the chemical engineering syllabus for the aptitude test. Some petroleum engineers even got the job, if I am not mistaken. I would advise you to apply.

Mcbenjamin:
This looks like scam, people should be careful. I have logged on to their office website which is careers.dangote-group.com/Openings.aspx and no such vacancies exist. I don't have confident in this at all.

It's not a scam. How do I know? I applied last year for the refinery position using this same site. There are other clues that show that it's not a scam. The website is a dead giveaway - too crisp and neat to be a scam. Would have cost a lot of money to the scam artists and we all know they don't like spending money. Their work is usually shoddy and cheap. Very cheap.

Phoenix11:
how did u apply again?...i couldnt re apply.....

The first time I applied, it was for the fertilizer division. This time, it's for the refinery division. That's my only explanation.

JobAirport:
OP Thanks. I applied for the previous one, can I apply again this time around?

I have the same question. Anyway, still applied as I have nothing to lose.

KingAdegoke:
pls are they still recruiting?

I am afraid not.

Headmonbra, you mentioned the individual's name in one of your replies. Kindly check and scratch it out.

I will get that out ASAP.

Bobo419:
Dear Brother Einstein,

Loooooooool.... Calm Down sir.

1) It's an Automated Mail

2) Hr is too busy to be monitoring your comments on Nairaland

3) He was wise enough not to put his name

4) You are just an ITK for no reason

5) RECEIVE SENSE my brother.

Regards,

Bobo 419

Btw, The individual deleted the email screenshot. You probably didn't even see what I was talking about before chatting nonsense. It means the individual agreed with me. So.....how does that make you feel? Stupid? You should feel stupid.

youdontknowme:
Lool very true. Since there's no name, you're fine. The Guy just got me laughing. Who do you think has time to trace nairaland usernames, emails?

The individual deleted the email screenshot. It means they agreed with me. So.....how does that make you feel?

1. I don't know what it being automated has to do with anything
2. That's a lie. It's a fact that even if it's not HR, company staff are on here monitoring. One guy in Nigerian Breweries lost his job because he put up confidential information on here. Emails and offer letters count as "confidential". Look up the meaning of the
word. It's clear you are not the sharpest tool in the box.
3. Are you very sure that there are many candidates named "........" who finished their application between yesterday and today. Like I said earlier, it's clear you aren't very bright.
4.i wasn't being an ITK. I was just looking out for a fellow human being. If not, why should I mind if someone is booted out? It means less competition.
5. It looks like you are projecting. "Small man" syndrome. Take you own advice - receive sense
Regards,
Headmonbra

Esemaf:
I finished the 3 tests and got a mail almost immediately I logged out
Its advisable to use a laptop and not a phone especially for the Numeric test

Hey, I don't know you, but I want to advise you to delete this screenshot. Apparently, companies have their HR personnel on nairaland. The email they sent is confidential, and putting it up here may be seen as a breach, and it will be easy to track especially as you left your name on it.

funshobabs:
I am scheduled for Wednesday. pls guys lets rub minds.

I hope this helps. Someone posted this earlier on this thread.



OJaySeenson:
Okay
The first thing is usually welcome and document check after which
1. There will be a group discussion. - they will usually give you a scenario in a printed document to read analyze and come up with solutions.
Make good contributions, and just be real and professional in all. It will be timed and there will be no group leader.
Composure and your contribution is keep and how you relate to others.

Next is the lucky deep or impromptu speech as it where in front of the panel.
You will pick a paper from a bowl and speak on the topic u pick -
It gonna be a general topic
So they want to know how you can think on the spot and take action.
IT IS GOING TO BE A GENERAL TOPIC so follow current events in Nigeria and the world.
Terrorism, FIFA issue, doping etc just any topic.

You will then have a break and some nice lunch enjoy yourself ..

Next will be the main interview in front of a panel of 4-6 judges.
Be confident make contact.

Most interview usually start with TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF so please prepare well make it Professional and link it well with your academics and professional experience and the role in the long run that's my own approach.
Just prepare well for all general interview questions.
Read about NB PLC, core values etc just be aware
Your previous job and professional experience, your masters topics and project. Why do you want to work with NBPlc, why should you be employed.
LEARN TO RELAX, TAKE YOUR TIME AND SPEAK CLEARLY AND AGAIN EYE CONTACT WITH ALL THEM IS GOOD.

This role is about Logistics so please read about Logisics and transport and what the job entails You will be asked a question or 2 I believe.

Finally for the panel interview make sure you have 1 or 2 questions for them after everything - ask intelligent questions.
Future prospects of the company, how they r adjusting to the current economic challenges - just ask intelligently.

Finally after the panel Interview

another CBT English ( fill in the blank spaces and some fill in the gap with option) maybe a little Mathematics and some mechanical reasoning like logic and pattern.

Then you wait to be called successful by Gods grace

The above is from a brother that made it all the way last year. asked me to share with all that need. success to us all.



and yea, i do have a postgrad degree. i have also been sent a mail asking me to submit all credentials before coming for the assessment. have not gotten the electronic one they said though. just an email asking me to forward docs to the email address.

funshobabs:
I am scheduled for Wednesday. pls guys lets rub minds.

Don't hold your breath. No one will tell you anything. Looking at previous threads, it seems they are usually warned at the AC that telling other people would give them an advantage over you.

soria4real:
I hope dis assessment invites is in batches oooo,cos I have not received any yet and didn't get any regret mail.pls if u haven't received any invites let's us know so I will know am not d only one ooooo

I am in the same boat.
