:-I wonder why some peeps believe they can just waltz in here and tell us what we should be discussing. Why must we discuss what you want? People should ease up a lil abeg. Must you be serious all the time. So its when someone writes "tell me about yourself that you'll prepare for that in an interview? People spend more time in their offices these days and as such, your office should be lively and fun, filled with sacarstic people and also people with a great sense of humor. Without these characteristics, a person's life can be so uptight and sad.
There is a reason for the "unfollow button" USE IT, since na only u carry the whole problem for this world.

It's 'yes'.

UGLYS:
I am tempted to reply you but my Self-control is 95%. I used 5% to tell you about it.

Haha. Nice one.

KINGTELLER:
The bolded, are u kidding me ??

YES. It is not really needed. Some companies allow medoicre minds conduct their interview, that's why they go off rail.
A normal GT interview should be all about questions surrounding, Leadership, Teamwork, ability to learn quickly e.t.c.
Its a Graduate Trainee. Its suppose to be for peeps who just graduated from school.
However, the situation of things in the country has forced the hands of our employers, that's why we have it as it is today.
Anyways, What it should be isn't what it is.

Just like a friend of mine who has not even been born, someone assured his pregnant mum that they'll conduct the Interview for her unborn child.

pejuakinab:
I quote a dude in Naijahotjob's
blog..
"I was at NNPC Towers today and
told that PCL started sending sms for
interview in batches before NNPC
asked them to stop. The officer said
PCL has not sent sms to all successful candidates before they stopped them. House, there is still hope for those who have not received sms for interview".
Hope this will help ease the tension in those who are yet to receive sms.

On the contrary it increases the tension.

What you wrote up there is error-strewn. Do you really want me to point them out? Once again, kindly do the needful.

boygeorge97:
Are you married?if yes,will you tell your husband to wait for a recruitment process that you don't know the actual date it will end,which one do you prefer......your marriage or NNPC?,please think well before you lose both.

Aswear her husband sef go vex if she loose the job coz of pregnancy.

prelinctus:
Counting your chickens Hmmn, nice optimism.
@scarletdp, I wouldn't want to believe you wrote all that above. Kindly do the needful.

Wetin do wetin I write? Is there a word called "Chosed" there that I cannot see? Abeg tell me I'll gladly correct myself.

SoftlyZ:
Hello people. I have an important question that has weighed me down. Please, grace your replies with how sure you are.
During documentation and medicals, is pregnancy test inclusive in the medicals? If so, does being pregnant (even if not heavy) pose a barrier to getting the job?
Please your informed reply would help in my decision making now. Thanks for anticipated reply.

Well i'm not too sure, however, i think it depends on the organizations. If it's an organization that would require you go for training for lets say 6months. I do not think they would want u going for maternity leave when you are suppose to be in training and they sure wouldn't halt the training for you. Even most organozations, after training still say new in takes would have to stay for about 1year or 6months before they are entitled to any form of leave vacation. So best bet, Family planning, Just to be on the safer side of course.

Plus i have never heard of pregnancy test in medicals but where i work, it happened to a lady. we were in training few weeks later she began to have morning sickness. it was found out she was pregnant. she was asked to go but later scheduled for the next training. Lucky for her its an organization that recruits more than once a yr. but for NNPC...

To whom it may concern.
Aristotle once said and I quote ''The worst form of inequality is to try make unequal things equal''
It will be a continuous waste of time trying to make some of you guys to see beyond your knowledge that have been jaundiced.
If after the screen grab, you still think there is no such word, then you had better gone for a frontal lobe upgrade and may God help you.

the top part says the word does not exist in verbix verb n as such may not be correct. Of which verbix is like The verb conjugation dictionary . relax bro we all dey learn

DouglasHoc:
The thread is supposed to be for learning and sharing relevant info. Spare me your hopeless advice

Relevant info is relative. .. To think you thought that was an advice. Mscheeeew

TruthisOut:
I wonder why people think that when they use "big" words to express themselves they appear better or more knowledgeable. My advice is keep it simple. Well it is none of my business

He wants a piece of the pie. *shouts* Waiter!!!...

Some people no even wan agree wetin dey NNPC website. As in ehn.. I'm amazed... people wey you wan work for tell you for their website say see as something be, u wan prove them wrong because Wikipedia or some website talk another thing. Okay. I had to use pidgin coz I didn't know how else to pass my msg.

boygeorge97:
Young man,in as much as I don't want to join issue with you,I must advise to be humble and accept where you go wrong,I have been watching this thread silently and must tell you that you made a mistake when you addressed Mr.Bernard.O.N.Otti as the former GED of F&A Directorate at Nnpc,when in actual sense he remains the GED even as I am talking to you,though I can't remember the page now but I heard you saying
you have seen where he was addressed as Deputy GMD(I guess you saw that on our invitation letters for the aptitude test),immediately you said I started seeing you differently,but with the way you are attacking people here especially persons without either of the SMS makes me feel you are thinking that some other persons are not important and once you have your way,any other person can get lost,but I want you to know that until you receive a mail telling you the details of your interview you are still the same with people without Sms,even when you get it,it doesn't confer automatic placement,please always read your messages like two or even three times before you send,thanks a lot,wish you well.

Believe me the fact that he's got the sms shows he's not the same with people without. But then again that's relative. The glass is either half full or half empty. it all depends on how you look at it bruv

http://www.use-in-a-sentence.com/english-words/academic-words-english/former.htm
http://forum.thefreedictionary.com/postst29484_She-is---was-a-former-teacher-.aspx
You put a quote on the supposed sentence but ended up not quoting it verbatim. In any case, this is the sentence: "In fact, the current DMD Bernard Otti, was a former GED of that directorate"
I know your puny brain will overheat trying to make something of the links I provided above so I will try to help (as onerous a task as can be). The phrase 'was a former' (as it pertains to humans) is employed in situations where the person in question is either dead or doing something else after retiring from a previous position as should be indicated in the sentence. So in the sentence above, I used the word 'Current' to indicate his present position and the phrase 'was a former' to indicate what he WAS before taking on the DMD role (his present position).
Feel free to accept or disregard this piece of advice:
1.Get a refund of your tuition from all your English teachers. They bilked you seriously.
2.Grow a pair and be ballsy enough to quote my posts instead of this wanton show of pusillanimity.
3. Don't be a bucolic simpleton. I am not the reason you didn't get a text from PCL. (Oops! I said it)
4. If you are as busy and employed as you claim, leave those of us that are not, to visit NL as often as possible.
Side note: I have learnt to take statements like "I am employed, I don't need this job" with a pinch of salt because most people who aver such, are usually insecure and delusional so they try to use their mouths to make up for what life hasn't given to them.
Personally, I wager you are underemployed but if it helps you sleep at night, then you are the MD of SPDC.

Hahahahaha...OH Shiiiiit... I just had an O.r.g...asm. Dude you remind me of Ramsay Snow... Slaying folks that come your way like thats what u born to do.

Goskian:
How to know an immature, jobless kinder: frequent on nairaland, takes up dictionary in order to post a comment correctly, but commits blunders in little sentences such as 'He was the former GED of...', and still get admirers in fellow k******. SMH. Okbye.
