I beg to admit that most of us on this platform act a bit childish. Your deductions from the interview panellists' body language seems vague. Out of over 3,500 interviewees that were interviewed, do you know how many come from your state? Do you know how many got all their questions correctly? Do you know how many got excellent responses from the panellists? Do you know how many candidates that will get letters without going through the processes we passed through? Do you know how many candidates whose portals were closed but were still invited for the interview? Don't you think those whose portals were opened in the 11th hour just to attend the interview have about 80% chance of getting the job? I know of guys who were just asked to tell the panellists about themselves and were asked to take a bow and go. We all should put our trust in God Almighty instead of hoping on what a panellist has told us.
God bless you for this post. The possibility of a panelist knowing if you will get the job for sure is quite "SLIM". Mind you, there are 4 center and numerous applicants from our respective states. The panelist(s) could only pass good comments based on your performance in situ. But on comparing with that of other candidates, one may be no where to be found.
Like it's been said several times, the final decision lies in God's hands.

We all need to be careful with the calls and text messages we give attention regarding this recruitment. If I remember clearly, the same thing happened way before the interview where some people got text massages claiming to be from DPR which eventually turned out not to be. Also, we should be careful as regards posting our details e.g phone number on public platforms such as this. ANYONE can use it as he/she deems fit.

Tamihawtt87:
you are right. Its upfront they pay and last i heard from the last intake...entry level upfront was about 4m after confirmation. Salary was about 300k per month(basic plus meal allowance). Not sure if its still same or will be reviewed by 2018 but those figures show why its like blood and sweat to get in there. Again, That is what i heard from last intake..i don't have further info about salary scale. If entry level gets that, you know EH will def be getting more. Seasons greetings..
WOW. Please, as for GT DPR, what are the figures like?

Heheheheh lol! You can't be the highest in your field and 25th in your state. That means the majority of the remaining 24 would be highest in their respective fields. na only your state Waka come?
It is very possible, taking into consideration that there are some fields with ridiculously few number of interviewees as against other fields.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Department Of Petroleum Resources - 2016 Graduate Trainee &experienced Hire Job by Pdirac: 8:40pm On Dec 17, 2017
I was interviewed in lagos by four people. 2 men and 2 women, one of each with a laptop. The woman with the laptop asked me technical questions about my field, seems she's a colleague. As I entered, the man with the laptop asked me my name, to which I replied and he said and I quote "Your name is on page * number * on the printed list", which I do not know why he had to tell me that. Then the interview commenced.
If the job is yours it will definitely not pass you by, forget all the conspiracy theories.

... Guy, it is pure lie. No consultant was in the interview. Some of us had only 2 interviewer and both was asking questions, they are all DPR staffs.
It probably not a lie.
I had 4 interviewers(2men 2women), one asked me technical questions about my field; a woman. One asked me questions about my state of origin; a man. The second man was just craking jokes and the second woman was observing, didn't say a word through my interview.

I'm curious, why did you leave though? Reason I'm asking is that I have someone in my family who works with Total but really wants to switch to McKinsey. Kindly shed more light please. I've told the person to stay with Total oooo, but e no wan hear.
To be sincerely, McK is a very good place to work, but as a business analyst, you have no time for your self. Should you be a family man, the family will suffer. Lots of travels and late night meetings. Can't count the number of days I left work 2am.

this is very true. I did mckensey and I failed woefully self. was told I got below the average mark of 50% or something like that. this was shortly after I finished university. it gave me closure. I had never done a test like mckensey and till date that test has been the hardest test I have taken. I have never come accross such questions in my life I was also told to keep applying for any other job openings . perhaps when I did the test u had not joined. this was between 2007- 2009 or so if I'm not mistaken .
Now you're in line, you were told you scored below average, not your exact score. About the difficulty, that the hardest recruitment exam I ever wrote. Crazy interpretations and calculations without calculator. And the case interviews na die.

hahhahahahhahahahhaha...... my stomach!!!! I follow them laugh too. secrecy breeds corruption. I am sure the next thing is offer letter which to me is the greatest injustice to Nigerian youths. not even knowing how well one performed so one can improve in other interviews. not even knowing the criteria or cut off mark used in picking candidates is wicked. some people swore that they did so well in the test yet were not invited for this one. some people who already work in government establishment swore that they and others they know got there by merit as if they were shown their scores or the scores of others to know who is truly lying and who got there on merit. even when I did dragnet and mckensy and associates, just to mention a few my score was sent back to me. that to me is transparency. when it comes to government recruitment, if its your time, Its your time.
Madam, this is very untrue, McKinsey doesn't send candidates their result after PST. If the candidate is successful, he/she will get a mail invitation for Case Interview. I have been with McK as a Business Analyst before.

hahahhahahahh. thank God I quickly removed the second post I posted after that. were you also aware that nnpc did silent recruitment as DPR too. and this was one of the fights that happened between kachukwu and the GMD nnpc. hence they quickly told the candidates to go back and do it the right way. it was because people were complaining hence everything came out. sit down there make pant dey wear you. that same recruitment still stands. only this time they are forcefully doing it with you people just to shut the masses up. nothing has changed.
Madam, I don't mean to be rude, but abeg just shut up.

My dear, I wasn't going to respond to her again. During NDDC scholarship wahala in 2014, I encountered a lot of her type, one even use english that bust my head, said his person was in the "top echelon". When God favoured us, I start to find oga wey get person for "top echelon", my dear I no see. They only have mouth.

I just don't understand how people stay and assume rubbish... I'll say this is the first federal govt job I've applied for, but how the hell do people know how it's shared amongst senators and what have you. Believe you me, all that thing is RUBBISH!!!

That's how people said there was wayo in NDDC scholarship, I can authoritatively say that for the one I did, I repeat, the one I applied for and got, more than 70% got the scholarship on merit.

That said, of course, I believe there will be slots allocated to people but I don't believe it will be that overwhelming.

Lastly, I have only used my experience with NDDC to just encourage us all and make us know that we should still keep faith, a lot of us will get it on merit, and even if we don't, it's an experience, although it might be frustrating, it's an experience and life will still go on.

Cheers and goodluck to us all.
My oga, don't mind people like this, them plenty. This is also my first time applying for a FG job. I could remember some time ago, my brother applied for job at FIRS, alot of people discourages him. When he was invited for aptitude test, some people told him not to bother writing, claiming they have seen the compiled list of those that will be employed, that all slots are taken. My brother wrote the aptitude test, passed, was called for interview and eventually employed. He did not even know a cleaner there. Believe me, people still get these jobs on merit. It is the bitter ones that are always spewing rubbish from their mouths. Let no one discourage you.

budget is the cause of dpr delaying for invite.Until they sign budget before dpr will start calling.As for the edit profile, dpr did not send any message to edit profile, some hackers send dose false messages to dose whose account has been hacked. For d portal close, dpr temporary closed down d site pending when it will be opend again for invite. Frm a classified source undisclosed.

lol, no I'm not. You are the recruitment expert, wouldn't you want to give everyone the chance to overcome whatever challenges that may hinder them from showing up for your interview? In my experience over the years, I've observed a minimum of 2 weeks mostly.
If the 2weeks notice is to go by, then 4th of December isn't feasible anymore.

The guy is totally wrong. Many APO guys didn't have to add/remove anything.

They only wanted to know if there are changes in address, e-mail, phone number, e.t.c. since it is almost a year that we submitted applications.

If their credentials and information were missing, they would have not been shortlisted for test.

When I downloaded one of my documents to cross check. I discovered that the documents were saved with my first name and a code number. It was then that I discovered that the documents have been seriously scrutinized.
You are right, the documents were renamed and some were even repeated, like my NYSC certificate.

Gudevenin all .. I had to go find out things myself. I placed a call to them,(dpr).. with their contact number.. and the reply was .. if you got the update mail well, dpr is still trying to give u a fighting chance at d recriutment cos your credentials are not complete n correct n needed an update... If u got d mail n you can't access d portal then call them so that you can be able to Edith n re scan ur credentials correctly.. if you didn't get the mail n no access to portal, means your credentials r complete n u Shud b hopeful to be called for interview... The site is down that's y it's displaying APC.... N only those whose documentation have issues that can access their portal so as to be able to Edith it..hence d mail.... ..
This was the explicit information I got from them today wen I called...
PORTAL STATUS DOES NOT IN ANYWAY A DETERMINANT IN MOVING TO THE NEXT STAGE.. be hopeful.. n keep trusting God..
Hmmm. That was how someone posted a few weeks back that he called DPR and he was told by an agent that the recruitment is on hold. Only for me to call them the following day to confirm and be told it's untrue, that we should be patient and will be duly notified when the time is right.
