Trapqueeen:
Did anyone on here get a call from pwc yesterday?

Ah! Has the movement started? God help us!

This tension!

Lol! Why is the thread silent? You all should come out and chill! No tension!

Nwachiizu:
The DC is not like AC where you'll still be invited for an interview if you're successful. All the interviews will be done on that day. So my opinion;
1. The dress code shouldn't be casual business wear even jeans for that matter.
2. The address on the email sent should be their full and complete formal address not just Oregun. Not everyone lives in lagos. So Unilever will prefer to use
full address to clarify where Oregun is in Lagos.
3. The email should also include a pnone number you can call in case you have any complains.
Please if this DC calls/invitations end up as I suspect some nairalanders here will face some disciplinary actions o!

Bro, we will just keep observing​ them o. I will not say anything again, will just be laughing and observing.

candyyy:
Hmmm Crypto. You no sabi where Access Bank training school dey abi

Looooool. Candy o.....

damilee:
E slow die

I am looking for someone! B*** the pyschologist, 12th of May (last week friday was our interview - Team A) pm me if you are the one!

eseh1:
why did u say so?

Shey we will be here and keep observing. I was talking that day it was as if I was saying rubbish. We will just keep observing together, the truth will still come out.

Lunagirl:
If there is an email indeed it is most likely confidential and posting it here is simply somehow. If you want to see the email, you may proceed to engage on a one on one with the person.

If I got the email, I would not post it here. Rather, I will give details of the information instead.

No one asked for a full email showing personal and confidential details. People have posted more details than that, I just find the vagueness of the details too suspicious, even the screenshot posted is very suspicious, but what do I know? I just don't like deception but all we can see for now are indications akin to deceptive manipulation, for what purpose? I don't know. If it's true, no problem and am sorry if I came on too strong, but if not better stop it now, no one wants what happened with GSK to happen again, can't​ be filled with hope and end up seeing it was just a joke.

Meyire:
Woman. I didn't know asking for a screenshot is officially a taboo now. Its so funny it wasn't during the process when some certain persons here went out of their way to paste the interview questions and their feedback reviews
Nairaland is all bout sharing info and stuffs.

Bro. Thank you. I never even asked for a screenshot, I mean don't you all find it funny? No location of AC, no date. Just that screenshot which I did not explicitly ask for.

Dazzle12:
It was way after the call. Don't worry, if they haven't called you back yet, they will.

I will be frank, this all reeks of the GSK fake imposed pandemonium all over again. Lol, no email proof? Only 2 people claiming to have received the call? And some people saying they should not post a screenshot for proof? Don't make me laugh people, na naija we dey, it takes nothing to blur important details and put it up for other people's peace of mind. It's not by force to show us the proof, but we have an obligation to be truthful to ourselves.

Chase2903:
Okay oo.. Thanks, man. Hoping for the best sha. It is well...

I hope you all ain't trying to pull a GSK?

I remember GSK application last year, it was going like this, people were lying that they have received calls and all and the rest heard nothing from GSK.

mcpat:
I think saturday is the last day.

Ok. Lol. The waiting and tension. Wish you all the best.

[quote author=mcpat post=56427480]Lol we managed to eat about 5 pieces with me eating the lions share. There was no short bread sadly.[/quote

Is there anyone who has an interview after today?
I think today is the last day.

At Dragnet already, patiently waiting for the interview.

tboks:
I'll have mine at Dragnet's office on May 10th

Cool. Same as me man.

Sholy29ice:
Stay close to your fones, calls are beginning to roll in.

Is there anyone here who was Interviewed in the Dragnet Office gan gan and not at Olam?

benebaby77:
Bro I beg to disagree with that First Bank... First Bank seemed easier but time was a constraint. Even with the time, I am very sure many a candidates would score more than 50%. Fidelity aptitude test is harder than First Bank.

This Citi Bank aptitude test is something else. You can beat your chest that you would pass it. If you think otherwise, ask those who have taken it. You ought to know the reasons why they didn't one with verbal reasoning for they know what tests entail.

You are very right boss! Can't compare that first bank exam to what Citi bank has in store. It's just like comparing SHL to McKinsey's PST.

LuckyWinner:
Hi guys,

Those who got regret mail should try and apply for McKinsey and Company Young Leaders program. I have a feeling it might be for someone here. It's not for me, it might be for you.

Give it a try. I think it's a wonderful alternative to UFLP . Check the link below:

cc: Emaimo, Viviansteph

Nice idea. The problems are -

1. This is for corp members.

2. Even if it ain't for corp member, McKinsey application process is the toughest in the world in my opinion. That their PST (Problem Solving Test) is not a joke at all, takes time to prepare for it.

Though, all in all McKinsey is a great place to work and a superb career booster, it's just very tough. I know there are geniuses out there, but McKinsey's PST makes SHL, GRE and GMATS look stupid.

Please who has applied and gotten a feedback from them?

Emyben:
With all respect sir. Why is it so?

Is it that if they report with us, they are gonna train us or what? And that their training is deadly? Lol

I need to know so i can start praying against em reporting alongside us.. Lol

Lol. Ask those guys who do SSC at NDA, they will tell you why. Just trust oga Tenderlaw, he knows what he is saying. So do I. You don't want to be in training near those guys I assure you.

Bulletproof:
Not even blocked! No road dey sef!!!
Baba, which kain sorry again na!
Person get regret mail, sorry!
Person wan make friends with lady, she talk say she don marry, born, you still talk sorry again!!!!

ogidiOlu which way?

Now this is funny.

destino24:
Drop your digits

Wad up guys? I work with Lionbridge too. Let's connect?

Sunnystooth:
Was it stated that your video is being reviewed or not? Like in the case of the others that got 'excellent' reviews.

Yeah being reviewed

Weare now reviewing your Digital interview and will provide you with an outcome shortly.

Coz am seeing a lot of mixed theories. I don't even know what is what again.

viviansteph:
Count your number of 'you could improve on...' if e no reach 10 maybe hope dey

I hope this feedback is okay......

tenderlaw:
It will all work out bro....better than you ever hoped. Maybe not NN, but you'll be glad in the end.

Thank you very much sir. Really appreciate the encouragement.

Celcius:
Speaking of medical, in my state (name withheld), I know of five personnel (Ratings) who made the board list but had medical issues, some had HBP (High Blood Pressure), flat foot and two of them are below the required 1.70m. Even when the Captain was calling out the numbers, he had to look at them twice when they responded to their numbers because facially they were far above the required age.
My conclusion, I just believe if you have a strong backing anything can happen even if you're screened out.

The real truth is the Nigerian system has not been poisoned, Nigeria is poison itself. I am 6ft5 aka 1.95 metres, and I am 23 years old. I can do Numerical Analysis of Business problems with ease, so even with my height am no dummy. Without doing a complete Physical Analytics on the morphology of my legs, I was labelled flat footed. It's not that I don't have people that I can call, but have decided to move on. The Nigerian Navy does not deserve people like me. The most painful thing was finding out I was not even flat footed, to add insult to injury am hearing some people with flat foot are still in camp. There is a God, but Nigeria has been forsaken. I have moved on, but I will never forget how the country treats those deserving.

I wish all those who have gotten this far success, and if it doesn't work out just move on. The only constant thing in life is change.

viviansteph:
Go to the first mail you got after u applied for the job. You will see click here to check application status.

I have a total of 4 emails from them starting from the application email to the Video Interview, who else is with me?

NurseEze1:
...
I saw it ooo but one of them told me that there is no problem that it's due to tension ..
that kind bp at my age is frightening ..
how can the upper one going up( from 170 to 200) while the lower one is coming down (80 to 60)..
I doubt what they are checking.. anyway we are waiting for the medical results

NurseEze1 which state are you?

Graysmooth:
When will they get to "I" ....Hian!!!

So it's confirmed then? There is no one here whose surname starts with B and above who has gotten the test link?

My surname starts from A, but has a T as the second letter so am suspecting there are some people whose surname starts from A, who might not have gotten test links yet, or what do you all think?

Fesvit:
Thank you Sir!

Only that my weight is reducing oooo! Use to weigh between 69 to 73kg.

Measured yesterday, 66kg and am 1.7m making my BMI to be 19.4, is that not a bit low? With the 19.5 to 24.5 range.

Why not lift weights small? Or do body weight resistance training? It seems to me you are loosing both fat and muscle. Also up your protein intake to limit muscle loss.
