apheyz:


That never stopped you from applying you know!!! I applied for the technical trainee program in a bid to prep myself for the forthcorming management trainee recruitment and any other engineering related opportunities.
You know, familiarize myself with the necessary questions and the interview approach, and thats exactly what I did..
I know the management trainee procedure might not be as technical as this, but at least I came out of this process a bit wiser...
The interview actually went well.. too bad i wont consider the offer.
I specificaly asked the Interviewer about the career prospects of a potential technical trainee in NBC. He authoritatively told me that the program is a CSR (corporate social responsibility, their way of giving back to the society and that they werent under any obligation to employ anybody)

18months of training(with a stipend) that is most likely proprietary to NBC and zero chance of employment Naaaaaaa!!

Man pikin go jus dey drink coke dey go sha!!!
I drank like three the other day...
They wouldnt give me 'five alive pulp', I wonder why, yeye people!!!!!

I am currently on a graduate trainees programme at a power station, and there's this guy who did that technical traineeship with NBC in 2014, dude works here full time now, he gave me insights about the programme n how it works...

Here's the deal, u get trained on a specific area u want to focus on in NBC's lab n breweries, during which u will b prepared also for C and G exams.

The training is top class and u learn a great deal to the extent that u become an asset to the company, he said the chances of dem retaining u is very high depending on your performance during d training, and that even if u choose to leave u will get other jobs easily, especially the guys that chose automation (PLCs n SCADA) ... I stand corrected on this piece I have written as I only heard them from a former trainee...

So the guys that got the job should make good use of the opportunity as it will open more doors for them, and as for the stipends just manage it for the time being, the experience you will get from such a training will put more than enough food on your table , its just time

To wat end

No mind that madam. But you self that your comment too funny. Na work I dey now, see as I dey laugh like mad man. Can't stop laughing... One of the funniest comments I've read lately.

lol... thanks man

adedayoa2:
you dont need glasses just sit in your room. lobatan, abeg make una advice the notherners o before they start destroying things and saying its the sins of the land that caused the eclipse

But madam i did not call your name nor did i ask for your advice... i clearly wrote that i was joking, or you didnt read it to that part

and whats ur beef with northerners can you state in clear terms when the northerners destroyed things during previous eclipse,

its not a necessity that you must comment, and please ma don't quote me now nor in the future, thanks for your co-operation

Bro,the test was quite easy, the technical questions asked were mainly mechanical and electrical...Like machine tools(chisels, lathe machines etc) and their uses,fuses,circuit breakers,some basic circuit theory. I didn't use any material,it was just speed and some guided guesses.

thanks man, this few lines you wrote here just changed my approach a bit... your advice is highly appreciated and will be put to use

booked

About 5pm today.

bro congratulations on your new position, i wish you more success as you progress on your career, i applied for the position too, but i didn't bother taking the test because i wanted to apply for the management trainee programme instead...

i just need your help on something, i'd like you to tell me the sort of technical/skill based questions dragnet focus on, and if possible you forward any materials you feel will be of help to me and others that will be applying to other positions with NBC in the future, thanks in advance for your response.

I have my reservations still... You know this present Government is full of propaganda and lies, What if i now buy the eyeglass and then the eclipse doesn't happen, who shall i hold responsible

Or what if our Senators collude and use that opportunity to embezzle more money while everywhere is dark so EFCC wouldn't find out (window period)...

Or Who knows if the presidency is planning to increase fuel pump price nationwide and they just decide to use the eclipse as an excuse, cos trust me if they do that day go really dark....


just kidding though, what to do
I should go and start my preparation to buy my basin so i can watch.
Cos it seems as if this is the only good thing one can anticipate for in this year.

Fribery:
please a sincere reply is needed..

i am a corper who just started serving not more than 3months now. is it advicable i write this aptitude test considering when they will commence the trainee programme proper if i eventually succeed or i just write it for experience sake?

i don't know how long the process from apt. test to interview to employment will take, whether it will fall within or after my nysc year (hopefully april 2017)??

it's my first job Aptitude test..

please urgent replies

I am also a corp member from batch A stream 1, I'll go and write the test, I'd rather do that and watch how things play out than sit back at my ppa and just assume the process won't favor me...

If u looking for reasons not to go, I'll find a billion of em... Just try it out, u never can tell how far this decision can change ur life

Take care bro
