apple + triangle + cross = circle 20

in summary , expect about 10 questions under general question....... ( they might likely change the pattern so dnt rely on the info am given out... workforce question is 50 questions ---- maths about 15questions, genral question is about 10 questions and d rest will include critical reasoning ,short comprehension passage et al

when we wrote the first one it was for first bank , but for the second test , they told us it was for a new multi national coy and 90percent of what came out in the first test a;so came out in the 2nd test

i dnt have a sample question because both exam were computer base... i was only using my intuition of what came out in d two workforce aptitude i have written so far....

then for the mathematics, A type of question came out where we were given an estimated first, second , third and fourth quarters sales figures for three product for the prior year/ actual year... it was in form of a table and question were asked base on that like ; WHICH PRODUCT HAS THE HIGHSET QUARTER ? WHICH OF THE PRODUCT HAS THE LEAST RANGE ? KNOWLEDGE OF PERCENTAGE, AVERAGE WILL BE USEFUL HERE { ABOUT 5 QUESTIONS CAME OUF FRM THIS

ALSO THERE WAS A PARTICULAR QUESTION THAT ALSO CAME OUT .. WE WERE GIVEN A ROUGH INCOME STATEMENT { PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT) FOR ABOUT FOUR D/F YEARS AND IN THE QUESTION ,WE WERE ASKEDS TO CALCULATE THE AVERAGE PROFIT BEFORE TAX ...( 4 QUESTIONS CAME FRM THIS

IN SUMMARY FOR THE MATHS, READ TOPICS RELATING TO TIME ( calculations relating to minutes, hours eg if it takes 3hrs for mr A to produce 300 photocopy , how many hours will it take him to produce 600 copies.. { something like that came out in the maths,,,

study your ratio proportion,percetage, time,distance, speed, profit questions relating to km/hr bla bla bla.....
expect about 15questions in the maths

for the general question , we were given something like what is wall street, the nigerian external reserve that was depleted was ? a. 41-45billion, 46-51b { remember this was an aptitude test relating to first bank )

other questions that came out frm d general question are - how many bank do we have b 4 d consolidation era? if a father is faster than his son but his son is neighbour is faster than his son ( something like tha came out ) .. more will be revealed tmrow..

applicant should not be morethan 24years.. I hate that word anytime i read that deluded statement

the moderator that kept this post on the front page is worst than a racist .. First and and foremost the information pasted is incomplete. Secondly this is not the first thread on consolidated breweries posted on the job section as this one i open precipitate this one but just because the source indirectly was from a blog site , biaseness set in and this thread made the front page. The advert says applicant shouldn't have morethan 2yrs experience i.e at most 2yrs meaning b/w 0-2years at most.

egbin power station is now working at full capacity yet phcn never switch on light in jakande estate at mile 2 for the past 24hrs.. To hell with the propanganda of the 40 laptop dogs, retardeen himself and sheppotamus a.k.a madam jesus . The obvious starting point of strategy to restore the lost glory of Nigeria is to vote pdp out of power first .

[quote author=Xavier's]lol @champion..
Dude, dont see it in that light, been selected most times is by fate, often times ur resume will crash u out.

their(((Requirements
Entry into this program requires-
First degree in any Social Science discipline or Humanities with a minimum of Second Class (Upper Division) or equivalent.
Not more than 26 years old.
Must have completed NYSC at the time of application.)))

it might be that their NYSC date of completion wasnt stated on their cv. (yes! i hv seen cvs without it) or it might be a minute mistake while filling their form online.

chelsea should be wary of the fast pace/counter attack of agbolahan and benteke. These were the two men that sinks arsenal last saturday.. With what aston villa played on saturday , they showed a significant improvement in the mid field and their fast counter attack.

pls who used year 1986 as his or her date of birth in the just concluded nbc recruitment and got an invitation to choose test location ? Am trying to deduct some analogy here.

please forward d gmat to me too - olaklives05@yahoo.com

Although i didnt see any text message but i tried to login my nos to workforce in order to know if my details is in their data base , but unfortunate my details isnt in their data base. My conclusion is that if you didnt see your profile on their data base , it means you were n't selected. Only God knows the criterial they use in selecting people because i studied accounting and had a 2.1

this is a front page materia for the mod to help others..

ehustler - it might be from their website or better still use another browser.. Good luck

can someone who was born in september 1986 apply for this job ?
