coolio2014:
All these talk about zones and so on. I understand the part about slots for indigenes of Bonny - afterall it's their immediate community. But what is all these talk about senatorial districts and zones?

NLNG NLNG NLNG!!! Pick the best hands for the job! Do not compromise on mental soundness on the platter of zoning! NLNG is a worldclass company and should act as such.

In the UK and other developed countries you can be disqualified in a recruitment process for stating you gender or age, not to mention where you are from. They do not want to know and do not care. All they are interested in is getting the BEST hands for the job based on pre ascertained qualifications. NLNG PLEASE follow the same standards. Being WORLD CLASS should not be "by mouth".

Actions should make this clear.

My bit.

My thinking on the call up date:

Working backwards If we are to resume January, We should already know by Ending November (to give room for quitting from previous jobs, getting ready for the NLNG resumptions et al)

If we are to be informed by late November, Medicals should have been concluded by October.

If Medicals are to be concluded by October, we should have been notified about medical call ups by September.

I believe September is when we will be notified for the NEXT stage - Medicals.

Like I said, my thinking.

airsaylongcon:
That epiphany moment when it dawns on u that NLNG will pick only 109 candidates (one per senatorial zone) and 11 Bonny indigenes for a total of 120 GTs

spacyzuma:
Please how long did it take from your AC date to receiving the "alert"?

freeradical:
Epic answer you gave there man. The only wise thing to do is trust the Lord and move on.

TruthisOut:
As long as it is back door entry, it is wrong! Stick to due process! Some jobs come with high recommendations. Yes! that's if the company asks for it (eg. situations where the company requires referrals from staff and note this is not back door entry).

Yes, man will still be man and there will always be fifty shades of grey as you call it but that still does not make it right! If there are injustice done to you, cry out and let your voice be heard - a fix might come and there will be lessons learnt.

Nepotism or favoritism should not become a norm because a lot of people wish/hope for it or are already doing it. Let's as a people develop the attitude of reporting, finding solutions, fixing wrongs/sub-standards and condemning that which is bad! (we will get there someday).

My two cents.

P.S: Imagine if after two years of waiting and struggling to get recruited into NLNG and your name gets substituted by one rich man's son who just earned a Masters degree from MIT or Harvard? will you take it in good faith? (Reply Scarletdp and Npcomplete).

artmedia:
LoL. A lot of people just dont seem to get Scarlet and NPComplete sha. Did you hear them say its right at any point in time? All they are saying is that it happens, and your comments on here on Nairaland is not what will make it stop. Also, that if you were shown your AC performance and they told you that you did not do well, but dont worry we still want to give you the offer ahead of peeps that clearly did better, will you say 'No, I am not taking this offer as there are clearly others that did better than me'. Will you do that?

Pls dont come and be forming Champion of Morals over the keyboard when we know you will jump at the chance of skipping the tests and AC straight to offer & employment if you had that option.

P.S. After going thru that AC on Wednesday, I now understand why people easily gyrate from the 'spill' realm, to the 'no-spill' space. Was a very challenging exercise, but I still thank God.


Shalom!!

weomet:
How did I ever try to crucify him? by "Now I can see why evil thrives in this part of the world" which I made earlier, I mean that evil(wrong doing) thrives when no one does anything against it.
Now this is criticism - I can imagine NPComplete to be like the wealthy man who lives in a street that has loads of poor people and all he does his ride in his jeep across the terrible road, then switches his generator when he gets into his high-fenced house and shuts his very big gate. He also goes to the office and gives a relative of his one of the 45 slot(out of the 50) that he mentioned earlier...what his is rationale? - he has to "gracefully sidestep murky waters on the way and focus only on the things within his control". He never moves a hand and refuses to exert any of his influence to purge "murky waters", he just "gracefully sidesteps" them.

You don't know me, you don't know what I would or would not do if I knew babs, neither do u know if I looked at the "hints" for the SHL. Besides they are called 'hints' for a reason and not 'expo'. Also, in ur second paragraph u seem judgemental. Don't tell me you have picked up my supposed trait of 'judging' others. In your third paragraph you are clearly judgemental.
Since you mentioned the Lord...I am actually wondering if he took the approach of "sidestepping" murky waters gracefully when he was here on earth or if he refused to comment on right and wrong because evil will still be here when He came back.

lastly, 'commenting' about an issue is not the same 'judging' people that have the issue. the former focuses on the issue and the later focuses on the people that have the issue.

I am fairly certain that we can be certain about certain things in life...."In the end it is all about how we choose to see and live life".

No hard feelings...

weomet:
Now I can see why evil thrives in this part of the world...let's just focus on the slots that we have and let evil thrive.That is the underlying opinion in your comment. Ignoring a problem never makes it go away. @NPComplete concerning your earlier comment of "I won't assign myself a judge of what is right and wrong in the overall affairs of men" and "I will follow laid down rules to the letter"...a robot/soldier should talk like that...I am fairly certain you are neither.

forkadict:
For anyone worth his onions who passed thru the academic rigour of a Naija university and who honestly graduated with a second class honors is capable of working in any company in Nigeria. To the best of my knowledge, there is nothing 'rocket Scientific' so to speak about industries in Nigeria. .

NPComplete:
Not even my friend. Let's use myself as an example. Do u think it has never happened to me before? And when it did happen, do u think I cried my to sleep with two hands holding my head and a single tear rolling down my cheek? Dude, u should get to know me.
I am not saying backdoor recruitment is right. But I won't assign myself a judge of what is right and wrong in the overall affairs of men. I will follow laid down rules to the letter and I will try as much as possible to avoid hurting another person as long as it doesn't imply me hurting myself. And when another person hurts me, I don't begin to wish retributive justice on them. I just pick up myself and gyrate to a spatial position of increased happiness and bliss.
And, yeah, there are actually people like me.

Prinzofparis:
By back door I mean 'going through channels that accepted by company standards'
NLNG for example could be two tests and an assessment centre for gt, then a test and interview for experienced hires.

As it regards 'WRONG HAND', I don't mean 'Bad at the job'.

Hope you get my point?

Nice reasoning btw.

ghostmist:
our best achievement today is to pray for your success??
Because you are...??

NPComplete:
Your candour is what I find to be most fascinating about u. Respect man.

NPComplete:
Sometimes such backdoor methods allow poor hands in. But not always. Life isn't always black and white. It is fifty shades of grey.

CHM11:
There is nothing open and/or honest about this sentence 'going through the back door doesn't make you a wrong hand'.

For me, If you go through the back door, you are definitely a wrong hand. There are always accepted channels of getting employed by any company. Anything out of the accepted is unacceptable therefore it is definitely wrong.

checkup:
Your childhood friend must have lied to you. He is not a staff(GT) but on contract (If he was actually employed by NNPC). the last successful recruitment for GTs was August 2012. 100% certain for fact.
For NLNG, lets pray for the best.

Prinzofparis:
Lol, my brother this is 9ja oh!!!... The rich are not 'sleeping on the bicycle' neither are the well connected queuing for BRT to go to bonny island.

We can only pray the integrity of the company works in our favour and we maintain the right level of integrity also when we get there considering the importance of NLNG to Nigeria. They need the best hands on deck as I see the company playing a major part in the future of this country.

Hopefully BrassLNG and OK-LNG will kick off soon, NLNG staff will most likely be needed on secondment upon start up.
Employing through the back door wouldn't make sense at all because the wrong hands will get the right jobs and in the long run mess things up.

Somehow,, the topics I am following don reach 13,596.. (including ones I no even know de time I started following them).. And wen I scroll to the "nlng" thread and click on it,, it will take me to the zero-page of the thread..
So, I prefer bookmarking.. It wil take me to the exact page where I stopped reading., even if I had forgotten the page number.. (145 or 146 or so)

masagoody:
it is now clear to us that quarrels and arguments between intellectuals move a thread faster than any other thing. though thus isn't a good thing, but it is inevitable. some persons will still step on others' toes here. who will be next?

kayceekels:
Just checked the definition of patience from the dictionary. My conclusion after that was 98% of us don't have that ish.
Patience is defined by Encarta as the capacity for waiting: the ability to endure waiting, delay, or provocation without becoming annoyed or upset, or to persevere calmly when faced with difficulties..... I have gone pass annoyed or upset. Just waiting to see if it will end well so i will tell my children that there was a time when u would apply for a Job in 2013 and resume in 2016.

On another note
Where are all the "spill the" beans, milk, coffee, moi-moi, eba .... peeps.
Guess after the AC we all suddenly became so so hungry that spilling was no longer an option.
Not as easy as you thought haaaa.

.......B.B.H.M.Job to NLNG.

coolio2014:
hahahahahahaha.... in your mind now you feel you have solved a great puzzle shey. Who says I schooled abroad... Remember, you are responsible for your thoughts and assumptions based on your presumed deductions of my verbal outpourings.

coolio2014:
In your mind now your feeling funky with yourself innit? I know what I meant and you alone are responsible for your deductions as to the things I said (and implied). I will leave it at that...

coolio2014:
I was there hehehehehe...

dway4ward:
Actually with little research, you can know exactly what they are looking for. Let's not make this whole process more than it actually is. The way some are behaving, they'll call prayer meetings every morning at work if they get it.

weomet:
That's the issue with rationalising things that happened, you may think that you have done well by your own standard and reasoning but it seems there is always an angle to criticize any strong point and strengthen every weak point.
It's only when we know what they are looking for that we can then estimate how well we performed...seeing that we will never know what they are looking for I suggest we just let it be.
I'm not really fazed by the whole scholarship thingy whether na mobil or shell or imperial or UCL...all na story...who will get in will get in.

True that.
