Eazymoh, I send u a PM. pls respond

whywhy001:
Send me your number please. Based in zaria. Posted to warri zonal office.

I sent u a pm, please reply

why are people not talking about their posting. are you all afraid to talk so that they won't label you as SH candidate? lol....but seriously you people should discuss about your postings. we won't bite....

Not that am trying to defend DPR faults in this recruitment but the way things are unfolding in this thread is very funny....Now we have people complaining about the integrity of this recruitment, some even call the country a sh*t hole country(which am partially in agreement with), but the moment DPR calls again and one or two of them receive the call, they will go awol another set will emerge with the same complaints(remember the last week protest group).....am also an applicant and I have not been called by DPR but my cousin was called when DPR started calling successful officially. me, I don't know any SH candidate but the only one am sure of is that of my cousin who was called mainly on merit, am not saying there are no SH candidate but i don't just know any personally....if u cannot wait like me for God's grace, kindly follow elbangeez advice about using long legs also, the lamenting is just too much on this thread.

Cynthigirlie:
I try as much as possible not to comment on this thread... But the amount of wrong info I see here is alarming.. Like seriously where do you people get ur info from and people here will believe anything coz of the state they are in.. Okay the truth is that everyone has been contacted.. Any body contacted after now,is coz they cudnt reach the person earlier... I think everyone should try and move on..i know it isn't easy but you guys should understand we were thousands they had to pick from.. Everyone cudnt Hav been selected.better opportunities wud come.and we will all be alright.

you better not tell them to move on, they have tagged u as a stakeholder candidate already...

today, people have started receiving the call and they are also saying they didn't know anybody in DPR.....if you are not called, just take heart and move on, don't start another unnecessary movement and another "the recruitment is scam sh*t".
Those people that got it on merit today (especially onyidirike) shld stress their testimony more on how they got it on merit. not that after complaining and u got urs, u will now leave everything in bad shape in here.

I understand the essence of a protest, but what I don't understand is the real motive behind this particular protest.
1. since after the exam and most esp. after the interview we are all aware there is going to be SH and Merit list (the % is the only issue).
2. SH candidates have testify(though with hesitation) and Merit candidates have also testified (% still an issue)
3. do we expect everyone or half of us on nairaland to dominate the two list? we are not even upto 200(guests and followers combine)
4. some of us are even saying they did well both in exam and interview, yes according to ur own assessment....even if it's purely merit, u might still not make it.
5. some of the protest organisers are even ignorantly assigning SH candidate status to anybody against their proposed protest. are u kidding me...
6. Am not the one to debunk or affirm the list, but i will advise all of u going for the protest that u shld not use the list as the only hiding card u have.
7. you shld also know that if u are planning or praying for this recruitment to be cancelled , the end result will affect the chances of the Merit candidates already been called and are still going to be called (esp EH) even more than the SH candidates
8. lastly, to tell u protest organisers what u want to hear. go ahead with the protest but make sure, I mean make absolutely sure u know what and how u are going to do it.
thanks.....

Desric:
I think it's applicable to all federal MDAs but they do pay in arrears after the third month.

thanks....another quick one.....will the 3 months include July? since it is the date written on the APL being circulated

Xtruzz:
I tried to inquire about your question. They only told me what you know. I'm so sorry for the delay.

sorry for deviating a little sir, someone just told me that DPR don't usually pay the first three month salary to new recruits upon resumption... how true is the information

elbangeez:
this is what happened, people were called from Lagos to go to abuja to collect their APLs, the APLs were mailed to abuja together with the names of the owners of the APLs, the list is nothing serious because no zonal office has the original list, the original list is in Lagos on oga shakurs desk. The merit list is sealed, if you are in you are in and it will not be changed. The candidates that will likely be replaced are the stakeholders candidates, thats why their aponsors were quick to collect their APLs for them as delay is dangerous.

stakeholder list replaced by who? another stakeholder list?

Gemini13:
Nice job so far.. But if you really are concerned about us you should be able to share the list with us as it will be a good foundation to lay our protest on and also calm some nerves. Also I advise you share a copy of you employment letter so we know you mean well for the rest of us.

I am with u on this. the last DPR recruitment, the hopefuls had already confirmed their names on the list before they stage a protest and publish a letter requesting DPR to release the names..

Marvel64:
Good morning,

The candidates course of study in relation to the position applied is the first thing considered before other factors. This factor wasn’t applied when candidates were shortlisted for the interview.
Therefore even if a person with BSc. in computer engineering that applied for an Electrical Engineer position aced the test and interview, he/she is more likely to be dropped. If it’s allowed it would be unfair to the Candidates that hold a Bachelors degree in Electrical Enginerring

if a computer engineering guy that aced both test and interview with high score is dropped for an electrical engineer with low score because the post applied for is electrical. then quota system/federal character concept isn't bad.
NB. if actually your word is to be true

hello guys, I commend us all for all our patience, even when some have reach their broken point, others are still halfway, while others are optimistic some are pessimistic while some claim to be realistic. this is just how we approach the world because we are built different.
the reason why am writing this is because I recently just came across a thread on DPR (2010-2013) recruitment on *naijahotjob* that is when I come to terms with everything that has been happening on this forum..after reading through most of their pages (I think a little more than 400) these are some of my observations.

1. it seems like different individuals playing the same role in the two recruitment(i.e. theirs and ours ) and everything that is happening in this forum is so consistent(with little deviation though) to their own

2. one of the deviation is that, unlike ours, most of their Generals (people who supply information just like Tami, Smartgrid etc) didn't deactivate their account in the face of heavy criticisms till the end

3. there are always people, mostly with new account who will try to rubbish the Generals information

4. there is also constant date changing due reasons like budgets, FCC letter of compliance, PIBG etc. even when the then minister of petroleum specifically fix a date for Apl distribution on media, they didn't get there letters until almost 9 months later

5. some of them were able to see the list of successful candidates when the list was compiled and sent to FCC..may be the guy telling us that our list is not yet with FCC might be right. if it is, we should have seen somebody who should know and able to check

6. passing of budget may or may not be the only reason for the delay of calling successful candiates because even when budget was passed, they still have to wait for almost 6 month before the distribution of apl

7. and lastly, the journey was not easy but majority "claimed" they got in on merit

smartgrid has also gone AWOL now that we needed him most, two days now there is no news from him, even the Mr Tata story has come to an abrupt end..so who will step up now as the chairman of information on this thread, the post is vacant

this recruitment , the way deadlines given on this thread elapses ehn. I can count like 12 deadlines in this newyear only......smartgrid thanks for the info.

osemeka:
You sound more depressed than realistic. Take it easy, it is well.

why can't you jst leave him alone..u shld know that we are all created differently, while some will be hopeful some prefers to be realistic, we all have the right to express ourselves on this platform so why label him as depressed, moreover the one person we kind of believe receive this call was someone the guy said was VERY connected so why blame him for expressing his thought. some people are already bracing themselves to expect the unexpected by being realistic as they seemed fit. so ignore any comment that doesn't agree with u

Clemexy20:
jus 4get abt dis meeting issue.
jus put ur mind on any date ok

I take it that u don't want to know the answer and u don't have the answer also...so why not keep quiet and let somebody else who actually knows something say something...is it so bad to know wats going on about the info someone gave us yesterday?

are we sure the joint session screening between FCC and DPR holds today? anybody with info on this shld pls let us know..it will be highly appreciated....@Smartgrid, we await info from u brother

mancongroup:
Everyone can now see that the list is not ready. When TAMIHAWT said it here people attacked her. They never knew that the list they were talking of is the OND list. They we all can now see how accurate TAMI have been with her info. The ' I too know' members here have ended up chasing her away from the thread but we thank God some people have her contact. We can now relax our nerve and pray.

hey man, not everybody is happy with how TAMI was treated but it's enough time u people stop bringing up her name everytime...since she has deactivated her account u can deactivate urs also, so as to follow her as herds if u think there is no more reliable information on this platform...I as a person have always respected her opinion in deactivating her account so let's not dwell much on her matter.

Smartgrid:
As at today 9/Feb/2018. The dpr are still compiling names. This will go on till next week.

Don't expect any call from them next week. Let's hope for the upper week. Wishing everyone including myself the best of luck.

compiling kee. ..even our trusted sources on this platform said the list is ready jst waiting for FCC vetting/approval. it will do us good if u can elaborate more on ur claim though.

osemeka:
Thanks guys. I've updated my L.G.A.
My interview was one of the first days. Maybe the drop down menu wasn't available as at then because I remember checking. I hope I'm still safe sha. It is well. God dey.

I think most people used their residential lga...they (dpr) shld be aware of it, since I can't be from one state and have lga in another state. maybe it doesn't mean much (state of origin is the real deal) or maybe not..there is not much we can do about it

neverdown998:
Hi everyone,

1. The recruitment is highly competitive, so many candidates have the same score classification.
2. Top candidates with the highest scores would be considered in each state
3. For each job role, top candidates would also be considered then...
4. There would be a careful selection of each of the selected candidates to make sure FCC standards thrive.
(I would not specify the number of candidates for good reasons).
5. In each state, two candidates cannot be recruited from the same local government.
6. For states having numerous DPR staff in service, they might not get that many slots.
7. Amongst the 3800+, there are several applicants that missed the interview.
8. Class of degree would be a yardstick for shortlisting.
9. Selection is still ongoing but the process is rigorous due to many factors.
10. APLs will roll in between now and March.
11. Relax and pray.
12. The recruitment would be merit-based, it's being monitored closely.

wow, those are very rigorous screening criteria/ process, that number 5 really caught my attention in a negative way..shoo

Tamihawtt87:
It is a good thing we all understand the pressure from this recruitment on those responsible for the selection. I hv heard the list will be released from no where because they don't want unnecessary last minute pressure. So i doubt if the process will be known to share but fingers crossed. The man in charge resumes work officially tomorrow. I have no idea when too...i was told it will be released from nowhere.

Tami, pls can u expantiate more on your statement most importantly the "I was told it will be released from NOWHERE "

keboxxerxes:
Good morning.
What I am about to say might be offensive to some candidates on this thread.
A lot of candidates here have raised some very interesting points as regards to the FCC factor. But before that, a lot of candidates by their actions already disqualified themselves from being successful in the interview.
Before the guys in DPR pick out the list of successful candidates as approved by the FCC, they have to firstly weed out the unsuccessful candidates from the ones that have a better chance of being successful.
1. They would probably weed out candidates that missed the interview outrightly.
2. They might also weed out candidates that were absent on the day that they were to be interviewed and instead went to other venues to be interviewed.
3. They might also weed out candidates that came with incomplete documentation, or fraudulent documentation with regards to age and qualification. (Check your interview invites, proper documentation was labelled as a requirement).
Putting these factors into consideration, more than half of the candidates invited fall under at least one or two of the aforementioned categories.
By time they might have reduced the numbers, factors like interview/ CBT test performance, quota system or stake holder slots might now play a role in who may or may not be successful.
In all, Gods grace is the ultimate, but come on, *if you didn't do what was expected of you, like for instance, honoring the interview invite, then it would be unfair on other candidates that honored the invite,* if God favoured someone who missed the interview outrightly.
My opinion by the way. Please guys, no insults.

though ur analysis seems alluring but it doesn't holds water...
1.
ur claim that it won't be fair if those who doesn't honour the interview invite(including those who missed their date I presume) are successful and some of those who honour their invite are unsuccessful..now my question is this *will it be fair if those who didn't attend on their stipulated date but did very well in the CBT and interview altogether than those who honour their invite and didn't perform well enough are not successful?
2. but since u already mentioned that wat u want to say might be offensive, and I happen to fall in one of ur assumed unsuccessful candidates, I had to write this to correct ur assumptions because some people are starting to believe ur analysis because it favours them.

3. and lastly, myself and those that falls under those categories will hope and pray that the people in charge of the recruitment wud not THINK like u.
I rest my case

Onyiridike:
I was also asked similar question.
Everything is in God's hand now.

pls what is ur course of study,

Tamihawtt87:
I don't know how the final shortlisting will go but for this interview those shortlisted were majorly on merit and others were based on stakeholder list. However,
I presume the final after interview will aslo include quota system, stakeholder slot etc but ultimately i believe alot of merit candidates are being given a high fighting chance. Yes quota system falls within competing for top scores with your fellow state candidate so i think it's one man for himself and pray to be favoured.

pls I receive a text message(no email message yet) from DPR this morning telling me how impressive I performed in the test and that I should logon to my profile for interview details, but when I log in my profile page kips showing me error message even wen have tried using different browser both on phone and PC, pls can u give any explanation on this or maybe u've seen or heard someone with similar case. am asking u this question because of how reliable all your information on this platform have helped so many people and have been proven to be genuine. thanks

LordDJ:
jus confirmed now DAT clicking submit is very important, if u didnt click submit button, ure auto out..

DPR is recruiting jus close to 300, and expect most of d selected guys to b from the north, if ure from the south wt no connection, beta go n sleep..

cutoff is yet to b decided, it would be set base on geozones, if dey r to select 5people from ur zone, jus d top 5 goes.. the course of study also matter...

from reliable source... u can ask any question u like..









PS: its jus a joke o... so na so guys dey type info from their rum n tag it reliable source anyhow... I no take anytin I see here serious again

Guy, those people who quote u are too lazy to read, they didn't even bother to read ur overspaced last paragraph, they jst attack u anyhow.....lol

An0nimus:
In simple English now. Going with the bolded, are you endorsing examination malpractice?

Yes/No

Thanks my man for that question...I already told him to sit down quietly and think but it seems he ignore the advise or maybe he still doesn't see anything wrong in what he and some others are doin, which is very bad at his stage...
What annoys me most is that he kips on repeating when he was in school without really knowing there is difference btw school and recruitment exam.

AlwaysUltraPad:
In my days at the university, everybody around me knew I'm the chief of "summary " of materials that are mostly richer than the original materials. When you begin to see my handwritten "summary", you'd think I'm the best students in that department and this is how everyone thought, but I'm not. When I see people using my work, I get that feeling that is or'gasmic in nature.

There was a day I sat with a guy writing geology of Nigeria, the supply was so torrent or came like a torrential rain that he came downstairs and said a prayer that no one has ever said to me before; I can never forget that day. It pays to help when you see someone who genuinely needs that help.

Those who kept their answers or solutions away have not used those solutions to solve real life problems.

So u still kip on comparing school exam to recruitment exam...don't u knw that the latter depends on some other people failing while the former did not and will never be affected if ur colleagues fails...so it normal for u to help during school exam(I did so too, more than u can even imagine)...and u people kip shouting DPR should employ on merit wen u kip giving out questions, do u think that is how to call for merit employment.
Jst stop going against my argument when u are clearly talking without fact and logic but jst on unwarranted and illogical sympathy to feel good that u are helping others

*jst sit down quietly and think about it for a moment b4 u reply*

AlwaysUltraPad:
some who are not writing this test right now will still get the job . Is that due to the questions shared and solved here? You go to internet, intellectual work of people are poured out there to benefit everybody , and this is how other society develop. But being a black man and a Nigerian, I'm not surprised; you know why we are backward.

People like you, while in school, kept every material on a particular subject hidden and make it available to peeps 30min to the exam just to be the only one scoring "A" or making first-class. Those guys who got E or F when you made "A" because you had a pq or a material that all the questions possibly came from are possibly doing better than you right now.
DPR did not manufacture those questions-what's original about them?

Having those questions doesn't mean one could get exactly the same.
Success in this test is subjunctive , so save us your theory on "advantage".
Life is about what you share, not what you keep to yourself.

Use ur head bro...u don't know hw I behave in school and moreover school exam is different from this because to be frank, ur success on this test depends on some others scoring below u, so don't start as if u are all righteous....I am pro share. I live for that....We just have to recognise the line.

It's a different thing to share my experience at an exam or test,It's another thing to be telling you questions and helping you prepare especially when we're in a race. It makes absolutely zero sense.

Take it whatever way you want. Blackman.

AlwaysUltraPad:
look at this mindset...a typical blackman. The chance of another applicant won't block yours.

U are quick to abuse him by calling him a typical Blackman, my question is are u not a typical Blackman ursef?...giving people unnecessary advantage in an exam or test is still not appropriate, no matter how judgemental some people are by saying they are trying to help and that people like me are bad because am against it..don't u knw that as u are claiming u are helping others u are also unhelping(jst my own coined English though) others...

otukpoyam:
Small small wit d solving. U guys are competing against each other and dats a fact. U have been given clues and dats all u need. People who wrote first may be placed at a disadvantage if dis continues. D clues r enouf.

True talk my guy...maybe people don't know they are competing each other, if body they sweet u after u don finish exam jst celebrate it quietly instead of u giving people unnecessary advantage over u and most importantly over others who have written the test already.... I knw some people benefiting from this act will go against my comment, but jst knw that this is a fact, and moreover some candidates will also be given advantage over u at some point in this test.
