Necksonnel:
What about someone like me who did medical biochemistry. Any possibility of getting IT courses like data analysis or data science, or I should just apply for medical related courses


And secondly, how useful is post secondary certificates in Canada? Can someone get a job with them? Or it’s better I apply for diploma programs which are 2 years

MatrixReloaded:
On a note you could have pulled the stunt by jokingly approaching him and saying My GUy... no vex e be like yesterday we been dey together for one joint like that, then boom (excuse me for a minute pls).. his attention is now drawn to you and ur topic should be brief and straight forward.

It is possible to submit documents to IRCC via web form after submission of application. I just did this morning.

MRtristan:
Hello Everyone, I just realized I have to upload 2 passport photographs and the document checklist form and I already went ahead to submit few hours ago, please are there any repercussion on this or there's a way I can resolve this?

MRtristan:
Good day everyone, please is there a word limit to SOP because I am currently at 2500 words and 6 pages in MS word.

My interview experience was quite interesting, I wanted to be noticed by anyone interviewing me, so I mentioned in my CV how the company I work for (a Tax investigation Firm) recovered unpaid Taxes (hundreds of millions of $) for the FGN from oil servicing and man-power companies in the oil and gas industry :



6 of us were called from the theater, the secretary or HR rep was a beautiful lady, she asked for our CV’s and left. Minutes later she came back and asked “who is ….” I answered, she smiled and said “in your CV, you said you like meeting people, is that true?” LOL I was shocked, I couldn’t remember writing that because I wrote some portions years ago, whenever I updated it, I never bothered about those parts, she noticed I was contemplating and said “ I hope you did all those things you mentioned in your CV” and left. Sharply, I started browsing my CV and memorizing the parts I never bothered myself with while two guys were ushered in before me.



I greeted all the panelist and was asked to take a seat, the chief panelist introduced everyone to me and asked me the almighty question TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF. I explained in details my job position, what my company does and kept linking my experience with what NNPC required in their key competencies. I spent close to 5 minutes explaining all these. They asked the software’s we use, how we protect our data, how many projects we were currently working on etc. I was asked IT questions such as what is malware, software bug, programming, how many languages can I program in, what programming project have I worked on, name the 7 layers of the OSI Model which I couldn’t remember but they shrugged it off by saying with all these years as an analyst you wont remember much about networking.



The HSE question caught me off guard, I was asked to explain how my office practices safety, LOL, lord knows we don’t do nothing on safety in my company, luckily, I was able to use their office as reference, I talked about office light to be easy on the eye, well leveled tables and chairs for comfort, tried to stop there but they kept pressing for more, so I remembered the TV in the theater and explained how we are being told in my office to exit via the stairs instead of the lift in case of fire and also taught how to use the fire extinguisher, sharply one of them just asked if I can teach them too, lol I just told them that I don’t listen to the explanation much because I pray to God never to experience fire outbreak, they all laughed and felt satisfied with my answer.



I was also asked to explain a difficult situation I faced, told them about a client that needed an arduous job done in 3 days and how I met the deadline by using extra man hours and delegating other team members and mentioning their skills used in accomplishing the task. The panel chairman decided to give me a nick name “The Data Man”, I was smiling but deep inside, I was like “I hope say no be washing be this”. Then they said I can ask a question, I inquired what was the next stage, they said the interview was the final but medicals was needed to know if fit for NNPC and security check will be done to know if you’re a yahoo boy…lol I raised my hand up and said “sir, I have never stolen in my life (inside me, I remember stealing meat from kitchen sha lol)” they all laughed and kept saying “the data man”, they thanked me and told me that was all, I thanked them also and left.



The secretary saw me out and silently told me “you did well”, I thanked her too and she went back in. I shook everyone waiting for their interview wished them good luck and left.



Finally, my favorite saying “Life is hard, but it’s harder if you’re stupid”, I do wish to work in NNPC but if in the end I do not get it, I move on. As a matter of fact, I am working on a personal website project which involves publicity, currently 90% done, I will drop the link here soon for anyone who wishes to join and its free.

I plan to sell my father's land, liquidate my savings account, take out a loan against my father's house and use my tuition money to buy tesla. I have done my research and I strongly believe tesla will go back to $2500 by Chrismas time. If I can raise N5 million and invest it all in tesla, I should have N25 million by Christmas. I'm about to become the richest person in my family and its all thanks to you people here.

Jozay:

Kaanbelmont:
I have been viewing this for long.I just want to ask two questions.
1 Has any one on the 2nd of July seen Alert?
2. Has anyone from Adamawa state seen alert?

I believe either alert comes according to state or according to date of interview.

Have a wonderful day folks.

klassd:
Only you na students... So much for first class

FLOW101:
I was asked to list four types of hazards during the interview. I listed fire, slippage, and burns. Now I'm wondering if these were the appropriate answers.

Did anyone get asked the same question? How did you answer?

chidiebereuzoma:
I was asked the same question on osi model, after listing the seven layers from the top to the bottom, they asked me at which layer does the router work and I gave them the answer which is the network layer(layer 3). They probed further by asking me what's the function of a router. Lol I smiled in my mind because I have practical skills in networking and I am also
very good in theory. I actually had some difficulties in the situational and behavioral questions, but I still gave them the answers the asked for albeit not swiftly. I'm hoping for the best.
Please are you a GT or EH?
I'm also good in php and MySQL.maybe we can know more about each other.
