Good day guys,

Please I am bothered and concerned about the number of days it takes to get the I-20 form.

Please I need an experience advice, as I have been expecting since the first week in February. The courier service insist I contact the sch.

Has the I 20 already been prepared by the school?

It usually take a school 4-6 weeks to prepare the I 20 from the day of official admission

svenson:
Pls how do I get to the venue from ogudu? Pls I need a response, my test is today

My response might come in late...

from Ogudu bustop (IyanaOworo - Ketu) take a bus going to Obalende/CMS.

Drop at CMS (they usually drop u around CSS bookshop). Ask anyone there to point you in the direction of the overhead bridge where u can take Eko Hotel.

From Eko hotel round about, take a keke going to Landmark Towers.

Hello house,

I was slated for an interview this week. I applied for the undergraduate internship. Please what sort of questions should I expect?

Also another issue. On my CV my objective is to be an analyst of taxation and finance. However, I have filled in management consulting as my desired unit in my application form. I have decided to have a career in consulting. Would this count against me in the interview? I don't want to appear indecisive.

You'd be fine really. You're still young so they understand that you're still a diamond in the rough.

Just show them you have drive and determination, you may even get to switch your unit if other units aren't filled up yet and you are better suited there.

Remember to ask questions at the end of your interview...say for example the one you posted here.

Hi, wish you success in the verification test.

Numeric had 10 questions, 15 minutes.

I cant remember the number of questions for the verbal, but its 11 minutes.

I did my verification test today. The questions are lesser but simpler, I cant say. But know the basics like you did for online and it will be a breeze.

They will provide you with calculator, biro and paper.

Someone kindly help with directions to PwC, Landmark Towers from Eko Hotel Roundabout.

Is there no other picture of him? I'm tired of seeing this one

I am an introvert and I believe my shy nature might be holding me back at work.

I enjoy keeping to myself and rarely contributing in team meetings. It's not because I am a bad team player (I am actually a good team player), but because there is this mental battle I have to fight each time I'm in the company of others like my supervisors, managers, colleagues, etc.

It really hinders my works and during meetings and brainstorming sessions, even though I have good points to share, I never get to do it. It may not have visible effects now, but it might later be my Achilles feet.

I don't know if it's same with other people, but does anyone care to suggest how to tackle this?

Biko, anyone heard anything from Technology Advisory in term of AC?

sir09:
Morning guys, could u pls help out concerning pwc age limit someone clock 26 years in November last year and now is btw 26 and 27 will pwc consider him as 26 or 27 though he wrote the online test by choosing 20-25, what is his chance.
Ednut1, TherealAdeoye,Yorex ur contribution will highly welcome.
Thanks.

I believe they consider how old the person would be by the year's end.

From experience, the age limit for graduate trainee is 26 and below. If the person would be 27 this year, he might not scale through during verification.

Because people here aren't in PwC HR, what they say might not actually count. Fear not and see if you are one of the lucky ones.

jmanity:
please! someone should help me cos i have no option but to pass this test before 1pm tomorrow. Those that have written it should tell me their experience. Thanks in advance.

apply kpmg core values. Also, pick either strongly agree or strongly disagree.

godG:
1. Usually within a week.
2. Yes. You need some info on your I-20 to pay SEVIS, you need SEVIS receipt for your interview.

So its safe to apply to a Summer session (Mid June), hoping to get the I-20 by May?

Biko, how long does it take to get a US student visa after interview?

+ Must I have the I-20 to schedule the interview?
