Each one application process differs, go to TLS for your biometrics and follow the instructions.

Thanks. You are very right. It's different strokes for different folks. A friend of mine who we submitted together same day and also did biometrics together on the 19th November got his visa today. No second interview. While on the contrary, I received a mail for second interview on phone, did the interview and currently awaiting the decision.

Is second interview compulsory? will all tier-4 applicants get called for second interview? Is it always phone interview or one must appear again at VAC?

Thanks Mr Justwise. I fall in similar situation and I've been thinking how to go about it. Curiously waiting for your response since. Thanks for clearing my doubts.

justwise:
You can apply for them anytime even tomorrow as long as you have the money that meets the requirement..i mean their own maintenance money which is separate from the one you used during your own application.

You can travel after Dec 26th, applying separately was a mistake, you should have applied together.

I learnt you can apply now for your husband and son by adding your vignette visa, that the sticker visa on your passport to their application.

Experts in the house can also assist with the right way you should go about it.

Hi, been following the trend for a while now, thank you for all the information, may God bless you all for taking out your time to answer all the questions.....

I have a question:

I just got my tier 4 Visa today, for a 2 years masters in Teeside University. I am married with a son, I was advised by the school to apply for just myself as it will make the visa easier to get. My Visa valid date shows from 26th of December.

So my question is this, can I apply for my husband and son, now that mine is out or I have to wait till 26th of December? Please anyone with an idea should help answer. Thank you

Tobexin:
no u are not late at all! I also applied to Teesside and I have also gotten my conditional admission. I have accepted their offer and I am expecting them to send me the account to make my school fees deposit then receive my CAS and apply for the visa ASAP.

Which course did u apply for?

1001 reasons to believe APL is coming this month

Kwara CBT, EH, interview 4th, 14K received. Lazarus

Typical scenario to explain the "medicine after death" adage. If this was an exam, or a very crucial interview, that's how you'll have failed with "so much pride and confidence" cuz you simply would not have properly read what you were supposed to, before jumping to supply your answers.

Better to read or listen properly, take a few seconds to process information, and then react in a constructive manner.

The essence of your first comment was clearly to ridicule the person you responded to. Your intent was to shoot him, but then, you pointed your gun with the barrel facing your own head. Well, what's the essence of making a mistake if not to learn from it?

Life teaches us important lessons, Kindly take heed!

You put it right. Thank you

I saw this same post on LinkedIn some minutes ago and you posted it here without giving due credit to the author.

One may say this is a faceless forum but habits as such is mostly a reflection of one's character in their real life. From the calibre of people here, It is expected that everyone most have graduate from a reputable institution either within or outside the shore of the country.

It is sad that an individual here could give room for emphasizes to be laid on the importance of shunning plagiarism. I wouldn't know if it on the basis of the likes or shares you thought that could fetch you or genuinely out of disseminating an information you consider vital for the public consumption. Even if it was done just out of the zeal to motivate your counterparts, it was still a careless mistake on your path and the next time you are going to be copying and pasting, please do let citation follows

Did you read the post at all? why are you too quick to criticize? Are you blinded to see where the name of the author was mentioned? guess you derive joy in pulling others down!

As we eagerly await the APL, Let's take motivation from a post from Brigette Hyacinth who wrote:

"I applied for an internal position. Aced the interview but still got rejected even though I was the top candidate. I later learned the person hired was a friend of my boss. I got tired of the office politics and started applying to other companies, and within 3 months I got a much better job. My old boss asked me to come back for the same promotion. I told him "thanks but no thanks."

Lessons learned:
1.You can be the best candidate and still not get selected.
2. If you didn't get the job, it was never meant for you.
3.You weren't rejected, you were redirected.
4. Your value does not decrease based upon someone's inability to see your worth.
5. Believe in yourself and keep trying, the right door will open for you."

Am I the only one who currently lack enthusiasm to put in extra effort on my performance at my current role due to high expectation placed on NNPC APL. I think until the outcome of this recruitment become clearer before my morale will be boosted again. Pls bring back our APL

I would have commented but...

Onunu:
1. Introduce yourself
2. How would I remediate Ogoni land
a.) ministry of environment has banned importation of microorganisms, what other method would I use to remediate
3.) how do I conduct site assessments
4.) if a member of my team is letting the team down, how do I handle the situation
5.) constraints of project management
6.) what’s renewable energy, my take on renewable energy in Nigeria and Types of renewable energy
7.) difference between a process and a project
8.) 4 workplace hazards

In between I think I’ve forgotten a few questions because between the 2nd and 3rd question, they asked me other things. Lol. They were just asking me questions back to back. My session went for a little over 20minutes

Which position you applied for?

Mine is Electrical Engineer

Onunu:
How was your experience? Do you remember the names of any of the panel members?

I don't remember any of their names.

Experience cool

1. One minute to introduce yourself
2.a. Types of engineering maintenance
b. Explain any one in a. above
3. Three challenges in engineering project management
4. Factors affecting global crude oil price
5. Hazard in replacing burnt ceiling bulb and how you can prevent the hazards
6. One situational question.

Any question for us?

What was yours like?

Onunu:
Any panel 11 person on this thread? (EH Engineering)

Present

Let me continue to read comments here while we await the next or the final stage of this recruitment. It will be victory at last. I did share my interview questions with a friend but he wasn't asked any of those questions even though we applied for same EH position, infact his own questions were more complicated and outside the scope of his CV. What will be will be!

Gently ignore the admission and apply for a master's program or post graduate diploma course.

Thanks

I got admission to study Diploma in Instrumentation and Control Engineering Technology at College of the North Atlantic, Newfoundland. I have B.Tech in Electrical/Electronic Engineering in 2008 and 10 years experience practicing Electrical Engineering in industries.

I have read that it is illogical to the VO for a degree holder to opt for a diploma course. And this exactly is what's giving me concern as whether to pay the first semester tuition fee as requested on the acceptance letter or to ignore the admission. Pls advise!

Good day house,
Though a bit new but I have tried reading many posts here. Here is my concern:
