What's next after the screening exercise?

BIGOB:
No one is upgraded with a certificate gotten before he gets the job, no one. The best that can be done is, due to how difficult it cant be getting approval to study, some officers go ahead and obtain a BSc while in service, and when it's time to upgrade, they find a way and get approval to study which is then back dated. But as Sikpa04 has said, upgrading isnt done with a certificate gotten before you got into the service.

Hello there. Please, I just want clarification on my own issue relating to what you posted. I registered with my OND cert while undergoing NYSC. Now I'm done with service, can I still upgrade with my BSc?
If no, how do I upgrade to level 8 while in service?

princensa:
that's how dey trace ur real age, the years y schooled and stuff 1+1 go lead to 2,and if u actually wento primary school I mean u can't falsify ur age at that level lol. But I saw an older guy swear he was like 40 or plus wit white hair cut real low but we still Dey see d gray, I mean everybody dey find betterment for himself las las. And oh there's this pregnant lady not so heavy but visible,that they kept taking her to d side to talk to her even the training school comptroller if that's what dey called was a woman and also shared a long talk with her i was sat to far away to notice if she dey let her or told her off.

Hello there. I lost my FSLC while we were moving to another neighbourhood many years ago but I still have my affidavit for both age declaration and FLSC, my WAEC and NYSC cert with same DOB on them. Are they good enough?

CharisEleos:
Lol... Oh this guy stop making me to laugh abeg. this not a laughing matter. Biko.

It is well..

Chuckles# But I am being serious. Ok, may be I went a little too far with the mousey-squeaky voicey thingy.

CharisEleos:
Lol.. @" his voice betrayed him". So you took notice of his shaky voice.

Yeah, I am certain everyone did. It wasn't shaky though but kinda lost its confidence. Just like Vin diesel sounding like David Beckham. Ever heard David Beckham speak before? It's like he squeaks

CharisEleos:
Hm.. that's a huge blow. Must have been devastating for him.

Everyone working with private organizations should just have a plan B as shock absorber.

It was, my dear. He had to take it like a man. Acted all cool and that but his voice betrayed him while speaking to us.
You are right about government jobs though.

CharisEleos:
That's one thing with private organizations. No job security. Imagine after thirteen whole years of service, you were laid off over the phone just like that. Dang!

That is why govenment job is still better. Though they may not pay so hugely but at least you're sure of job security and a huge compensation ( gratuity) after your service years with a lifetime benefit ( pension).

This is why it is good to have a personal establishment while working with all these private organizations just in case.

So demoralizing.

A senior staff member in my department was told to leave after 22years of service for reasons best known to the company. The kind of shockwave that went through my spine eh

BIGOB:
Baba no one is passing judgement
You said you'll forfeit the screening, and later said you might change your mind at the 11th hour. No one put those words in your mouth. Somethings ba, you dont need advice. You claim the process has taken too long. Why didnt you change your mind all these while? Why is it now they are about concluding everything. You have an opportunity that most people are looking for, and you want to chicken out at this stage.
Like I asked earlier, what are your chances of making it this far next time? Whether you made it this far through hard work or godfatherism. If through hard work, what makes you think others wont work harder than you next time? And if through a godfather, what makes you think he/she will still be willing to help after you've decided to throw away this opportunity.
Baba you're the one to advise yourself on this matter, no one else will do it for you, and most importantly pray.
If you have always dreamed of wearing a uniform, then zero your mind and work towards this offer, if not, then zero your mind and grow in your current field. Like I said, zero your mind, not the one you'll now start regretting tomorrow.

Kindly point out where I said I was going to forfeit the screening exercise. I only said I hadn't made up my mind yet.

Since I didn't state it to you earlier, I just got this my current job less than a week before I got the invitation letter from NIS. I have been waiting on them since last year.

And if I don't get it next time I apply, I'll keep on trying till I get it. Peace

naijakrook:
Brother, u understand your situation better than anyone. I advise you follow your mind. Let your instincts guide you.
Good luck in your quest.

Thank you. You understand situations like this. I guess they've never been in such kind of situation before, so it easier for them to pass judgement.

frank2zee:
It's 56k basic salary, by the time you add your benefits and allowances it should be close to 70k

Please, How about the conversion process, how long will it take? This will be the deal breaker for me.

frank2zee:
So how much is the pay you found out... You might be misinformed?

46 or 56k, aside other benefits though.
Bsc is 114k aside aside other benefit.

How easy or rather how long will it take one to convert from OND to BSc?

BIGOB:
LOL what are your chances of getting this far when you apply again? And what are the chances that you wouldnt have to wait this long again when you reapply? My candid advice, work toward the Immigration job, with time you can upgrade. But if you want to do otherwise, fine, give person slot. God sef knows how He does His things. He has brought you this far, you now decide on your own not to accept the offer, not that they didnt shortlist you o, you decided on your own. Then you now want to reapply, and you expect to get it again?

Like I said, I might change my mind at the 11th hour.
So why'd you think I can't make the cut next time. Not every thing has to do with connection. I worked hard, did enough studying before the exam and I got shortlisted on merit. So?

frank2zee:
Which position exactly are you referring to?

I applied as an AII with my OND cert. Found out the level and pay isn't encouraging as I had earlier thought. I might just change my mind at the 11th hour though. Fingers crossed.

I have always dreamt about being a uniform man, so I'll definitely apply again.

BIGOB:
Na your type dey make this big men get slot. So why did you apply in the first place?

Calm down, bro. You don't expect me to keep waiting on them since December. I weighed my current job to the position I applied for. You won't understand though.

pls....who is going to NIGERIA IMMIGRATION TRAINING SCHOOL, ORLU, IMO STATE On monday pls ....will it still hold with dis situation of shooting ...Pls i need info

Hello, bro. I'm also scheduled to be at Orlu on the 8th of June. Still contemplating though, not because of the shooting but because the position I applied for, I don't like it and I don't think I wanna quit my current job for now.

Mine happened a day before church service, that's on a Saturday. The church has this rule of coming a day before the service to put down your name as a testifier against Sunday service.
Unknowingly, I put the paper on the sound system equipment while trying to put down my name, and from a distance the pastor raised his voice and said "Who is that person writing on the sound system. Don't you have sense?! If you ruin it now, will you pay for it?". Gosh, I was so so embarrassed, because the choir members were having their rehearsal as well, everyone just stopped, staring at me. I just apologised. After that day, I stopped seeing that man same way I used to.

During my service, I was posted to a printing press owned by a pastor. I was the graphic designer for flyers, book covers, handbill, you know the deal.

Midway while thinking of a concept for a particular design, he'd summon us to come for mid-day prayer, which lasts for one hour. He also wanted me to become an evangelist, but na that one I no gree at all;
Working there was worth it though; he's a very nice man with a beautiful family, especially his daughter I wish I could stay but the state couldn't give me what I wanted in order to advance my career.

OP, do not buy from these road side guys else, I guarantee you premium lager tears. I remember people buying any thing when going for camp.
For me, I came prepared. I came to camp with 3 strong power banks, mami market didn't see my one naira. I was also an OBS crew member, so I had no worries charging all three power banks; 1 Xiaomi, 1 generic(20+) and one home made I bought from a nairalander

Good luck as you start your selfless service to your fatherland.

I already have your number, bro. Can you at least post your shop location

Emmy2009:
I dont understand the question

First, Where's the physical location of your shop or business?

Second, I am asking how many games can you give for free depending on the amount of games I buy I.e like download 5 games and get 1 free kinda thing

tukurmubarak:
Screening is about two days

Two days? Like let's say I do it the first day, I'd have to come back the following day or maybe because my name may fall on the second day?

Simplythebest:
Please take excuse and go for the federal government own. Cus u working in a bank and ur salary is 100k less that means u are a contract staff and for u to have salary increment it may take 3 years and which is extra 10k. Some people work in a bank for 8 years as a contract staff and at the end they ask them to go. Pls try the federal government own cus it will give u more time and u go do other things. Am talking from experience concerning the bank job. All the best

How can I take excuse when I haven't even spent up to two weeks on the job. It will only say how unserious I am. As regards time, my department will give me enough time to run side businesses and do other things. I won't have to run the usual 9-5, monday-friday.

capricornlady:
Don't Quit your Bank job till you have received an Offer of Employment letter from Immigration.

Screening Exercise is not a guarantee that they will select you. The highest you can do is request for some days off from the Bank and participate in the screening exercise.

Screening Exercise is not a guarantee that you have gotten the job, Be wise or you end up loosing both.

How many days will the screening last
?

akanbiaa:
Federal job last selection process is not determined by all that, hold on to your bank job and after getting APPOINTMENT letter and DEPLOYMENT LETTER you can move to the federal job if it's replacement you will get salary at the end of the month if it is fresh recruitment you might have to wait till after 6 months or a year before you start getting salary after you have done capturing and you will wait till after 2 years before you are confirmed.

Are you serious?! What do you mean by 'replacement'? But by the look of things, I think I applied as a fresh recruit.

obasi101:
Federal job abeg, which one is Bank job.. tcheeeww. All dis bankers that ll work their A$$ off for meager salaries.. lol. They ll be looking smart and agile behind the counters with their starched shirts and suits, but meanwhile, their actual account balances are looking Like a third class result GPA

I work at the HQ in Lagos island, not behind a counter. Not every banker you see is faking it. My senior colleagues in the office are all doing well for themselves. Lol. Bros abeg, don't use bank teller job to judge all bankers.

frozen70:
The screening is usually done within weeks, depending on the day your rank falls into

I have my date already but from the said date, how many days will the exercise last. Let's say my date is 20th of May, how many days will the exercise last?

frozen70:
With your entry qualification, you are starting on level 6/7

You are not going to be upgraded with your BSc, but it will help you in your subsequent promotions

Yes you will be going for 3 months training in either Orlu, Ahoada or kano

You may be or may not be posted to the North because you are a fresher but with time, you will be posted there

There is job security for you and some freedom for you

Your salary will be nit be upto 100k but with steady promotion you will raise

Being an officer gives you an edge

I don't know much about banking but I know that you are not guaranteed of the job till retirement

What about the screening exercise, how many days will it take, please?

eagleeye2:
The Federal government job would have been better, but you are not guaranteed of job.
If it were me, I will stick with the bank job, but if there is any way you can go for the training without losing out on the bank job then go for it.
About converting to the B.sc level, get the Federal job first after you have been confirmed you can then pursue your conversion.

I can't ask for leave. I need to know how many days the exercise will take, so I can determine my next line of action.

ejimatic:
. Don't leave your job yet Go for the screening and get your appointment letter before you leave the bank job.Yiur point of entry is ND but you can still process upgrading depending on whom you know and your level of connection.Imivration job is better than bank job where you are likely employed as a contract staff and may be dismissed at any time.I pray you are through with Immigration job...Finally don't leave the bank job until you get your appointment letter for immigration job.Good luck

I want to hold on to the bank job but the issue is how I can present it to my team leader that I want to take leave barely two weeks into my new job.
What do you suggest I do?

Ernesthugo:
take the bank job no one would sack you just do your best stay out of fraud and fraudulent friends save and save then plan to relocate out of Nigeria.

Thank you. But would you advice I still go for the screening exercise. What would you do? How will you do it?
