That test was just one kin
Everthing was over within a flash.
Lol, Honestly I don't know what to say about the test, for me it was smooth, but the submission aspect was annoying.......Submission, Without my consent that I wanted to submit. Haba, I tried to beat the time, but still needed to do some crosschecking before submitting.

Anyways, I'd patiently wait my score out......

FINAL REPORT ON PTDF OVERSEAS 2018/2019 SCHOLARSHIP

PTDF has concluded the overseas interview, candidates who were shortlisted in all categories have four chances; France, China, Germany and the UK. Whether you have received email or not from PTDF, u all still have equal chances to be selected.

The first category; France/China/Germany results are ready.But to avoid one candidate winning both categories, the names have not been published yet. All things being equal, winners in all countries will be published probably around June after the UK selection process which is currently being scrutinized.

This year will have the highest ever number of Oversea Scholarship winners thanks to the Strategic Partners who are offering a tuition-free scholarship. [/b]Selection is based on the quota system which is the government constitution. Hence, you are competing with the candidate from your states and not the general populace. [b]So don't play the tribal card if u are not selected as tribalism as nothing to do with it. Your slot can only be awarded to your fellow state kinsmen. In addition, more slots of winners are given to Nigeria oil-producing states which is understandable.

For all winners in all categories, you will be required to sign a bond which signifies that you must come back to Nigeria after your studies. But PTDF might allow you to stay for a fixed period for work experience in your field after their approval as before work visa is granted, ur sponsor will be contacted. Overall, u will need to plan well and focus on your study and life after studies. U are also allowed to defer your scholarship within one year hence if working u can apply for ''study leave without pay'' for your job to be secured when u come back. For those who are not working yet, the degree will give u more opportunity for job not only in Nigeria but any where in the world. It will give u more chance of scholarship for the advancement of studies or for migration purpose if you don't get jobs when u come back as jobs are hard to come by.

You might be tempted when u are abroad to do abnormal things to feel among. But remember Nigeria especially your family or friends who are struggling. Better to help Nigerians rather than outsiders. Also, save money, so u can plan well and be in control in whatever choice when u come back to Nigeria for the advancement of your career. Congrats in advance to the overseas winners which will definitely be among nairalanders here as it is always. For those who wish to study in Nigeria (have applied for admission) or are currently studying in Nigeria, PTDF did not forget you. Local application will be out in June.

Good luck everyone. Bye. Current PTDF scholars are already making Nigeria proud abroad (see attached). Do better than them.

Tuesday, you mean. Not Friday. You want to give someone heart attack! embarassed
Sorry for that Mix-up, i meant "Tuesday".

**MY INTERVIEW EXPERIENCE (FOR MSc APPLICANTS)**

I Was scheduled for 2pm, arrived the Uniport ACE CEFOR building, got to the conference hall at exactly 1:43 pm, was about seating when a Man entered, he listed some names and mine was the second called.
I was just puzzled......


i answered, he took 2 other persons and myself to the entrance of the interview office/room where even before i could breathe he called me in, as the first individual was unavailable, and it still wasn't 2pm yet. i notified him of my interview time, he asked if i was ready and requested for two copies of my S.O.P., which i submitted, even if it wasn't stated anywhere that one should bring an S.O.P along.
(Not that i even knew the meaning of S.O.P until the night before my interview, thanks to online resources like Nairaland)

FAST FORWARD TO MY INTERVIEW....
I was interviewed by a three man panel and a Fourth protocol officer, first thing that was requested for was my PUBLICATIONS AND ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS, I had to remind them that i was an undergraduate who had just rounded off with my NYSC, they told me that being a fresh graduate shouldn't be an excuse to not having a publication, (WAS ABLE TO CONVINVE THEM FINALLY THOUGH)

My interview was centered on;

-My S.O.P,
-Why i chose one of my three preferred institutions
-What the industry would be benefitting from my doing a Post grad. study in the UK
-My areas of interest
&-My knowledge on the industry

PS. I WAS ASKED FOR DOCUMENTAL EVIDENCE OF AWARDS WON, THEY REFUSED TO VIEW THE ONES I HAD ON MY DEVICE. I HAD TO SOMEHOW PRODUCE SOMETHING ON PAPER TOWARDS 4:05 PM, WHICH WAS VIEWED AND RECORDED.

Simply said, my interview was smooth, at least i got a reassuring thumb up from the Lead interviewer, who commended my dress sense and even teased me about my gold bracelet.

ONE ADVICE: KNOW YOUR STUDY AREA, PUT ON A SMILING FACE, BE CONFIDENT AND CONVINCING, AND BE SURE TO KNOW WHEN TO ANSWER Yes or No.
