For the first time in a while, my heart is bursting with pride because of something indeginous and very Nigerian.Its inspiring in a great way to find Nigerians coming togeda in this manner.

I want to state that while you go about this forum, make plans to keep this unique forum alive by creating a unique forum/blog specially dedicate to information sharing, resource and knowlegde transfer and most importantly networking. Also, try to integrate working professionals in various fields useful to the growth of an entreprenuerial concern; graduates in the fields such as acocunting, computing and so on, can offer invaluable advice and support to the company/group of companies(AMEN!) that you come up with. For example, I am presently working for someone else but I have my own registerd company which was done 2geda with another working colleague. You would be amazed the number of graduates that are interested in entreprenuership but are reluctant to take 'the bull by the horns'!

I look forward to hearing good things from you VERY SOON!
The sky isn't the limit, permit me to say.

P.S.: CNN, where u at?coverthis story and not stories of our food crisis! LOL

This post has been taken so off-point.
What we want are honest,intelligent contribututions on business areas we think need investment in Nigeria.
Well, i want to take this post back to the base. The ffg are areas that need investment in Nigeria.

1. Food security and Agriculture
2. Power and Alternative power sources
3. Textiles

Lets keep this post alive,

vislabraye:

I think people are carried away by the "innovation" they claim to have. But are they actually the most innovative? Dont have anything bad to say about them. I have an account with them, and they've been ok with me.

I think what BankPHB has are innovative brandmanagers and not innovative brands, sure enuf, nigerians are fooled by the current media hype about BankPHB having the most innovative brands in the banking industry not knowing that the paper media and TV journalists are probably paid to say such things

Well, thanks for this CE,i was on the verge of opening an account with them,

@spikedcylinder
Nope, the price these days borders around 5-10k

Its not just thier lack of understanding of the 3G technology but their inabilty to appreciate Nigerians appeal for the many variants in services that 3G can offer. Operators need to adequately produce consumercentric 3G products aimed at not just catching our pockets but also satisfiying needs and servcies.

what r u pple talking about?am outta lagos presently and i need to know what u mean by this "celtel promo" thing,

@ obarri
u took the words outta my mouth, my guy. enuf said o!

@swordfish
Celtel call center has one of the most organised and sought after jobs in the telecoms industry.U cannot compare ur pay package wit MTN CC.True dat, MTNCC comprises mostly contract staffs and d pay is infamously poor. By the way, there r rumours that Celtel will soon begin the use of similar staffing structure wit MTN i.e. contract. Thats the way of d world globally ( google it!).Contract staffing isnt bad, its just dat d way and manner MTNCC implements it is poor.

Dats a nice show of flesh u got there
Congrats

Is dis a new trick? My guy, this bust has been in use for ages o,
Na greedy chaps dey fall for am

expensive funerals are a total waste of money;i concurr with house.nigerians should begin to think about cremating the dead

sounds like a great idea. what do u have in mind? i dont know but i think what u r trying to say is harnessing the power of presently out-of-job graduates to make something meaningful out of thier time.

Waoh! dat one nah very romantic one coming from Insight o LOL
Congrats to all who made it; my sis didnt sha so its sad for us all at home.

U can go to their office address on the website www.peopleprime.net
Or alternatively, register ur details on the section for jobseekers to upload ur cv online then give them a call.They recruit based on demands from their clients only. but its cool sofar

isnt that a silly question to ask knowing that Visafone is a new company that is just taking off? By the way,were u offered a place ther b4 u start asking ur ridiculous Q?

I'm posting this cos there may not be time to do so again cos this set of recruitment might be conducted very fast and urgently because the said operator desires to rollout very soon.So take note,aight?


Tips:

1.The interview might start with a call to you from an interviewer but know that you are probably on speaker phone and a conference of people will be listening to and assessing your response to the questions.
Logic: You are being assessed on your speaking skills,diction,ability to relate to people and friendliness.

2.You may be asked questions on call center operations so brush up your knowledge on call center work.
Logic: Your technical knowledge of call center is being assessed.

When u pass this stage, there might be a short computer-based test to test your basic knowlegde of computer and its operations (MS Office and so on).The computer test will also test your typing speed.This is important as you must practice before hand to type fast with little/no spelling errors.

On passing this stage,the final stage is an interview face-to-face with call center people.But i guess when u r finaly here you know what to do nah,abi?

a. Know all you can about call center business and operations
b.Be yourself
c.Be friendly and courteous

Note that this is the USUAL format for call center interviews in Nigeria but with KPMG handling this one,they may introduce an aptitude test(probably to reduce the number of applicants ).So be prepared for anything o.

Well, for this "orijo" you all owe me a brand new phone!!

Goodluck.

@ georgee
U know what? evryone on this thread has offered u something or the other that i am positive is meant for you to digest. Carefully consider applying d things u av read here and am certain an opportunity is close by, more than u think!
I must confess i was in your shoes till sometime september last year.I cant honestly remember the number of applications av made! but u av to come to terms wit the following truths which i did too:
1. Your lack of job is not as a result of your actions;it isnt because u were not good at a test/interview or the other but u just werent thier choice.Another company is out there who considers u THIER choice candidate.

2. Your situation is a result of your in-action; there is something you r not doing that is keeping u d way you are.could be dat u avent sought the hand of Divinity enough, or that u are not properly prepared for tests/interviews or you r just not doing something.

I advice u take a break from evrything else and do some soul searching; u might be surprised the things u will find!
Be honest wit urself and then launch out wit more optimism than b4.
I did this last year and in storylike version i landed a job in less than a month - all after just one interview.
Well,i dont mean this to be a single-dose formula that works evrytime, but something tells me u might need this advice to go on.

All the best!

@ easimoni
thanks o.silly me,4got say i gotta restart my pc to enable the new software.it now works thanks o.
thanks for the new csv file too, man.

yeah, i heard the interview was harsh;but how many do u think they want?they probably did that 2 measure ur responses to pressure esp in front of Awosika himself.good luck to all involved sha
