Hello folks, I am scheduled for AC on Saturday, 8th July. Please, I need some clarification on the following:
i) What does the logical reasoning section look like?
ii) Are we going to be given paper on which we'll respond to the essay?
iii) Is it only the Individual task we are going to present on Powerpoint?
The logical looks logical...lols... But quiet simple, number series, saw a question from d test also, arrangement stuffs but quite easy if you are composed, your greatest challenge won't be the questions but the time and it will be like that all through. I didn't go with a watch not to put myself under pressure but individual differences so don't try it if you can't survive it. You will be given plenty A4 paper for everything so don't worry about worksheet and your PowerPoint presentation will be based on the solutions your group proffered to the point of discuss.... NOTE: every set discusses the same question no matter how many groups they divide you into.

That awkward moment when I'll go for my 'AC', and during the process, our group will be given the topic:

"how can FBN invest in football and reap benefits, just like how Barclay's does in the English Premier league" grin grin

Lady, simply admit you got it all wrong by your various comments here. The exercise has more than 1000 candidates. Do you imagine that those who will eventually get in are those who held info to themselves? Not true at all. Large-heartedness can earn you more favors than you can imagine. There are a lot of excellent candidates in the exercise. What do you think will make all the difference? Favor!

I had 3 candidates who consulted me privately from here after I did my AC. I happily told them all they need to know. That will definitely not affect my chances with FBN. If I am going to be admitted a staff there, I definitely will be admitted. In fact, the way i saw it, it even enhanced my chances.

Please try to see it this way too.
I sent you an email. Please acknowledge. Thank u

Saw this while scheming through the 2013 thread.

Alright people, quick one...

FBN is very very very very very strict when it comes to documentation and certificate verification.

If there are disparities or discrepancies in your names or other detail, then I think you should get them fixed before documentation, because successful documentation and certificate verification is the key to medicals. But if there are issues with your documents then its a no no for FBN, they will not continue with your candidacy and you'll have to wait till the next recruitment process, then u re-apply and g through the headache of reading, preparing, HBP for result etc..... u know what I am talking about.

So make hay now as FBN focuses on your WAEC Certificates because it carries your real DOB, and if you want to use NECO, make sure U go with your real NECO certificate that has your DOB, then twill pass. But truly FBN prefers WAEC, but you might be lucky if you go with NECO and pull through. All U need is Prayers. FBN just want to be sure of your age. dats all.... shikena!!!

Remember, even if you lie your way through to get into the Bank, you might not last, as FBN does Background check yearly on all her over 15,000 staff. Then you will be asked to voluntarily resign if you are found wanting or forced out. But for the new people coming in, you will be fished out during confirmation period (after you've worked and earned the Armed robber salary for 6months or more). For confirmation, you will have to undergo another documentation/certificate verification process, and FBN will request for a letter of recommendation which will have to be sent to FBN from your primary school, secondary, university, referee, guarantors and other professional bodies, before you are certified and confirmed as full FBN staff. FBN goes as far as sending spies to your home location to ask your neighbours about your kind of person, if you are a trouble-maker or trouble-shooter(peacemaker or someone who settles problems), and if you are well behaved and of good character, they ask this also from your previous place of work and get recommendations before finally confirming your appointment. (E no go easy)

My people, there are more to this than we think, so if you know your ways aint right, and your documents aint complete or you have forged your age and other details. You better forget FBN now and move on , that trying to try your luck and when the hammer falls on you, U say FBN is wicked and heartless, then U say ur enemies are at work and U begin go night vigil dey cast and bind. Now you got an Insight, be wise.

If you have any correction or verification to make in your school, WAEC/NECO, workplace etc, now is the time before you are called for documentation, even if you dont use it for FBN, there are other equal recruiters that will do the same as FBN.

I wish everyone the best, and success.... hoping to hear about your success stories and invitation for personality test(if any)


Cheers

Personally, I would advise you put your Msc. as it could be a spring-board for accelerated promotion in future. This is not a security job where you use your waec to secure placement grin. We are talking of acute intellectual sagacity here! Cheers grin

Thanks for your kind comments>

The numerical and logical tests are a bit harder than what we wrote last December. Personally i didnt find most of the questions easy. With time breathing down my neck, i gambled some of them. Not to discourage u though, u might find them simpler than I did. I will say the structure is closer to SHL for the numerical. The logical now come add some small numerical questions join. I was surprised.

Goodluck!


I have been reading this thread for some time now , I equally got both emails from HCP and I've been quite worried as I'm yet to receive the actual Invite for the assessment test.

However, reading this post now I think its clear that invites have been sent to those who wrote their aptitude test in December last year and probably early this year.

I'm directing this message to those who are yet to receive their invites as it's obvious it's being sent out in batches. Pls feel free to quote this if you have a separate theory.

P.S. I wrote my test February this year at First academy Challenge in Ibadan.

I don't think there is need for that because we're still within the said 6weeks. I'm yet to get mine as well but I'm calm since they're still calling successful applicants for AC.
Hopefully, ours will roll in next week...

All the best!
