Blueheffner come talk to your boys now..biko

Okay guys, the AC was structured into three parts
Group Presentation
Role Play
Individual Presentation

The group presentation was from a group of 8. You are required to read a case study from a fictious company and answer questions on it based on the evidence you have and the department you are representing. Everyone had a piece of information with him/ her.

The Role play involves you taking up an assignment as a new employee and presenting it to your managing director which of several alternative approaches you will recommend to and why ( backing it up with facts). To enable him make an investment decision.

The third stage which is the individual presentation involves aan article about the same company question. You are to read and gather evidences through some data provided why you think a decision should be made against another .

It was a very lengthy exercise lasted for about 8 hrs so its serious business also exhausting.
The key is to listen to instructions and just try your best and pray. There is really nothing else you can do and there is no room for advance preparation cos you cannot predict how it will turn out. It was a breath taking experience one in which I wnt be forgetting anytime soon. As it seems BAT intends to take only one person per role so its a very competitive process o. I wish all of us goodluck and may the best man win. May God bless our hustle

Were manufacturing guys part of ur AC group?

Yeso bro, the head of their talent team confirmed it to us that they are only looking for that one person and yes we were all for Finance. I am also aware that all the guys on Thursday are also for finance. Maybe that of manufacturing will commence later.

Manufacturing guys, I hope I’m not the only one who is yet to receive AC invite.

Don’t understand why BAT has refused to even give any official feedback as regards the interview. My HR status has been reading “Interviewing” since 17th of June 2015.

It was gangsta. The HR said the Assessment Center was going to be conducted for only one batch of manufacturing MT applicants. So, it's unlikely that they'd send out anymore AC invites. Two top performing candidates were picked after the day's exercise. Word is, there is only a single slot to be filled.
But, boy, that BAT factory is heavenly. The other MT applicants were awesome guys. The whole experience was great.
Akpan, Emmy & Trish, I bet y'all would read this. You guys were too on point!

To be honest, this is a piece of news I least expected to be reading at this moment, not at this stage in the recruitment process. Just a single batch for AC! Whew!!!

But still, thanks for the update brother, its all good.

I wish you success, including your guys too, Apkan, Emma and Trish.

@jamanuka are you reading this too brother?

For which role pls? I'm yet to receive feedback since March.

I think almost every BAT applicant (Management Trainee and Entry Level) is following this thread.
Well like I did before I just want to drop some hints about the process and more importantly about the Numerical and verbal reasoning assessment.
About BAT recruitment, it would surprise you to know that your profile is only been reviewed/screened until after you have passed the numerical & verbal assessment. Although passing the assessments does not guarantee your progress to the next level if your profile does not impress them. Then you wonder why some applicants were rejected almost immediately. The answer is that they didn't satisfy some benchmark requirements set by the company for its recruitment policies such as age, class and year of graduation, course of study, work experience, etc.
About the numerical & verbal assessments, I must confess that you must be good at maths or rather basic arithmetics if you want to scale the numerical hurdle. Good thing is that there's no time limit so you can take your time but once you start you must finish and its a no going back thing, I mean you must pick an answer to every question and once you click next you can't go back to that question. For MT applicants, get prepared for about 25-30 questions in that segment. As an engineer/ engineering graduate I bet you should be able to handle those questions. For Entry Level applicants, its about 10-20 questions. (Maximum of 20).
For the verbal assessment, its basically comprehension and fill in the gap type of question. The passages are the usual click A- if d information is true, B- if it is false and C- if you cannot tell. If you have been in the job search business you should know what I am talking about. For Management trainee applicants, the questions in this segment may not be up to 10, and if you are lucky, you might escape comprehension questions, all might be fill in the gap. For EL, it could be up to 10 or more and you can't run from comprehension.
Like I said earlier, it is until you have passed this stage that BAT starts reviewing your profile and if you are successful, get ready for the series of interview. Best of luck to everyone in this!!!

Pls Engr. Can I get the prep material to help practice in direction
