Going by the last GT recruitment, after their AC was concluded, seems they had to wait for like 4-5months before the good news started rolling in. I don't know if there were told the same story of 3-4weeks. lipsrsealed

The big deal for me though is the good news my letter carries. angry

I don dey rehearse how I go take do my craze. grin
That's the point I'm trying to make. A lot of politics is still going to be done before it comes out. And you know how it is with politics here. It's surely going to take a while. Just pray it comes out in October. And please, don't rehearse anything yet, for your own good.

You guys seem to forget that the NLNG board will still have to sit on the final list, and there'll probably be some 'chopping and changing' before the final list is approved. The earliest AC results can come out is probably September ending. October is the more feasible date though.

Lesson: not everyone wearing black is for real.

I suggest those throwing insults here should visit the NLNG GT thread and see what professionalism truly is. Just a suggestion anyways.

Dude, you need to shut the f up. You are talking about a thread that is being controlled by a power-drunk mod. Just thank your stars that that mod is not part of this recruitment. If not, you would have hated this thread.

do you think handsomeness can do better in getting a nigerian girl more than money
When you have both, no girl will refuse you. But if you have just one of them, you can still be rejected.

lol cheesy
This doesn't have anything to do with ugliness. I am the OP tongue
But you have to tell yourself the truth. No offence intended but you do know you're not handsome, right?
RomanceRe: Daily Pains Of A Single, Rich Guy by prelinctus: 4:18pm On Jul 06, 2015
What several posters don't understand is that the Op said he's rich and single. He never said he was handsome. He's probably ugly. I guess that explains it.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Self Employment: The Real Stomach Infrastructure by prelinctus: 4:10pm On Jul 02, 2015
elohorayodele:
Some people be quoting me asking ‘must everyone be self employed’?
I don’t bother answering them anymore because they should know better.
SME/entrepreneurs are the real drivers of the economy, they create wealth and the good ones turn their enterprises into corporations and become millionaires/billionaires.





here are the ten reasons why I love being an entrepreneur so much!


1 – Stick it to ‘The Man’

Being able to send that email to my last boss and truly ‘stick it to the man’ felt amazing. It was something that I had been wrestling with for a while. Everything from financial security and the fear (if I’m to be totally honest) of potentially falling flat on my face, came into play. But, when I made the decision to quit, once and for all, I did it, and I’ve never looked back.

2 – Work Your Own Schedule

Most days I will have ‘something’ on my schedule. But, having the ability to dictate when I work, when I’ll be ‘in the office’, available for meetings, etc., is freedom that I simply never want to let go of. If I want to take the afternoon off to play with our youngest, Charlie, then I can. You can’t do that working for someone else.

3 – Work Where You Like

Most days I work at home. Some days in our HQ facility, and other days from a coffee shop. From time to time I’ll even work from a resort (one of the advantages of living in Cebu, Philippines).When I’m not doing any of that, you’ll no doubt catch me working in airport lounges and in hotel rooms, as I travel extensively. I love being location independent.

4 – Work With People You Like

One of the major benefits for me, being an entrepreneur, is the ability to be able to pick and choose who I do business with. Life is too damn short to be stressed out by having clients that drive you nuts (I’ve fired several clients in the past) and to hire employees that either don’t deliver, or you don’t get on with. Teaming up with the right people is key to a happy working relationship, and as the ‘big cheese’, you get to call the shots. Cool, huh!?

5 – Create Your Own Opportunities & Destiny

Continuing from No.4, as well as choosing the PEOPLE you work with and partner with, as your own boss, you also have the ability to create your own opportunities by doing things like attending conventions, networking with like-minded people online and much more. In doing this, you shape, almost carve out your own destiny.

6 – Develop and Sell Products & Services You Love

I can honestly say that every product and service I’ve produced for my own companies I’ve whole heartedly believed in, and thoroughly love. We felt just like this when we launched Virtual Staff Finder in 2010 – based off of a blog comment we received. Since then we’ve helped thousands of stressed-out, over-worked entrepreneurs find great quality, enthusiastic virtual staff here in the Philippines. Bringing that ‘virtual freedom‘ to fellow business owners is something I’m very proud of..

7 – Solve Problems and Make a Difference in the Process

Solving a problem for someone, or a company, is the time-honored ‘Sales 101′ strategy of business. Give people want they need to get over a hurdle and you’ll enjoy success. You’ll also create a huge number of raving fans that’ll ultimately become customers. People want to do business with people that help them. It’s a no-brainer.

8 – Be the Boss

Being the boss is good. It feels good. Don’t get me wrong, it comes with it’s challenges, for sure (perhaps thats another post?!), but being known as someone that is ‘leading the way’ for a company and those involved in that company is a huge ego stroke, lets face it. As long as you keep it in check, stay focused and make sure that you deliver on promises (to staff and clients alike!), then you’ll be fine.

9 – Stand Up for What You Believe In

Being an entrepreneur also gives you the chance to stand up for what you believe in, and spread the word. I’ve been fortunate enough to be invited to numerous conferences and business events to speak on the subject of virtual assistance and outsourcing – strategies that I believe every business owner should be engaging in to build their businesses.


10 – Affect Change in People’s Thoughts & Actions

And for me, the absolute BEST thing about being an entrepreneur is the ability to be able to change peoples perceptions about how ‘this or that’ should ‘be’. I’ve been in rooms where I’ve given presentations and literally heard pennies dropping as the attendees understand where I’m coming from and start to think about taking action on whatever it is I’m waffling on about!

When other business owners come to me saying that they don’t think that a virtual assistant can help them in their business endeavors I take it personally. Not in a bad way, but in a way that spurs me on to try and prove to them, without a doubt, that VA’s will help them and their businesses – in a number of ways. Then, after they take action by hiring a VA for the first time… I smile.

In fact, I smile a lot more nowadays, as an entrepreneur – than I ever did working for someone else!!!

So, there you have it – my reasons behind loving what I do, why I do it, and what it means to me to be an entrepreneur. This type of list will no doubt be a little different for everyone, but I believe a lot of the reasons will remain the same.

How long do you think it'll take to appoint a new minister and board? Even if they are eventually appointed, graduate recruitment would be the least on their list of priorities.

Most likely that your guy lied. If they wanted to replace him, he wouldn't even get invited for interview. That person would have been invited.

About meritocracy of recruitment process in Nigeria, Nigeria LNG tops my list after having first hand experience with the Company's recruitment process.
I believe you're talking about their graduate recruitment process which isn't what the Op's talking about but do you honestly believe that that is even as much as 90% merit? Haha
