All My NNPC GT Interview Experience on 3rd July 2019 (Panel 47 later turn 16)

I woke up as early as 4am, did final preparation and interview practice. Left my place at 6am, took coastal bus to NNPC Towers. When I got to the towers, met other candidates outside the towers at far end of a fence. I went straight to the tower, I was told to wait for my scheduled time (9am). I went back to sit beside the fence. With much tension, I hurriedly went to urinate.

Thereafter, everyone went into queue, I join at 8:47am. Later, we were told the space available will not be sufficient everyone. I went back to sit. At 9:09am we fall into queue again, this time going into the towers. At the tower gate, we were asked to bring out our ID card and invitation letter for sight seeing and later given a pass card before entry into the towers. While those that came with bag were asked to drop their bag and register it also, they got the bag immediately at the other end of the search machine. We were led to the ground floor of the towers for verification; while moving, we were given a green file and differentiated into our categories (GT & EH).The first, was the signing of the invitation letter by an officer, thereafter verification of our original credentials and photocopies at 10:47am. The green file has our 6 copies of our resume and photocopies and the file was assigned with a panel no.

Thereafter, we were led to the hollow chambers of NNPC, where our names were called from the list assigned to the various panels. Immediately it got to my panel (16), I was alert to hear my name correctly. I came out when I heard my name, together with two other persons in the same panel with me at 11: 24am. We followed the usher to the panel room through the elevator. Thereafter, one of the interviewers came out to inform us to relax, that is not as difficult as we think, we should be free to express ourselves to the best level we can. Another even offer us a bottle of water and biscuit.

After they finished with the 7am candidates, one of us enter according to the order in the list. After her, they went for a tea break. I discovered the block we were, houses more of engineering inclined candidates. One of the interviewers came and collect by file that contain my resume and went inside with it. At 1:13pm I was called in for my interview with 6 interviewers, all assigned to interview engineering inclined candidates, which I was among (Electrical/Electronic).

Firstly, there all introduced themselves, and one gave the safety tips in the tower in case it becomes necessary and I was told I could excuse myself to use the convenience at any point in the interview.
These are my interview questions;

1. Can you tell us what project you did at final year?
2. Tell us the problem you saw.
3. Tell us more about your findings, conclusion.
4. Which part of Nigeria will you project (Integrated windturbine inverter sysyem ) be more relevant.
5. Can you tell us the safety measures you can put in place to avert an incident?
6. What is the most difficult situation you have ever been?
7. What is the most decision you ever taken?
8. Do you intend to setup an institution?
9. Why did you decide to pursue something different from your first degree in your second degree?
10. Do you have any comments like questions for us?
N.B: I used the STAR techniques on Q6 & Q7.

After the interview, I went through the elevator and asked to be stopped at the ground floor. I went straight to Block D, to sign out and register my Bank Account with the officer in charge.
I met a security man at the gate post, he said he wishes me a safe trip home. I told him "I WILL BE BACK". He smilled. I left the tense NNPC TOWERS at 2:07pm.

I sincerely wish those yet to be interviewed the very best. I pray this experience I had could help someone.

You must know something, for you to have the capacity to get to this level, it means you also have what others don't have to ace this interview. Just believe in yourself and trust in God/Allah.

Please, are we expected to make photocopy of the Mode of identity? Also, can traveller carry a school bag there? Is there a place to put it before entering for the interview?

Jiang:



Please do not over complicate things, I don't know why Nigerians over process simple data. The mail was pretty straight forward, As long as d originals you bring relate to what you uploaded in d first place you are good to go. E.g. statement & cert( all that matters here is visible name & class of degree).

P.S you can confirm from recruitment help mail instead of deducing!!

You didn't have to react like a Top Management Staff while bringing in that Nigerians bla bla bla here. I only made some deductions probably to guide someone out there.
Besides, you even ended up saying the same thing so what's the fuss about?

I had my interview yesterday, it was more of interactive session. I answered many questions on accounting (My course of study), questions on challenges I face on my current job, and safety caution. Everyone must answer questions safety. Just be confident.... No question on NNPC and its sub. Or General question. The interview was about me, my course and personal experience in life and in job. I'm a graduate training applicant. All the best

Please what kind of accounting questions: double entry or reporting standards or flow of accounting data from journal to reports. Looking forward to sharing my own experience for the finance people in the house.
