Travel / Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Stan999: 12:25am On Jun 22, 2022
Good morning house.

Please I have a question to ask and I don't exactly know how to structure it for the search algorithm to identify my answers.

Here it goes.

I recently secured admission for Sept. 2022 and have paid the tuition deposit. At this time, i'm waiting for my TB test date in the first week of July and would proceed to start visa application. While waiting, I have locked in my POF for 30 days and it would mature by this month end. I hope to add the bank statement and other accompanying documents to start the visa processing.

Also, I joined the school's whatsapp group of Nigerian students who are been managed by the school's recognized agent in Nigeria. Sometime this week, one of the agents advised those of us with locked POF that plan to withdraw after maturity to desist from doing so. He rather said we should leave the money in the account till visa is confirmed. In his statement, he said that there's been a spike in requests from UKVI requesting for another account statements during the visa application stage. So if one has withdrawn, obviously it would reflect and lead to automatic dismissal.

My concern is how true is this or is there a particular reason that leads to this reaction by UKVI as I would most likely be spending more than a million naira just for account statement if I'm to keep the money in my account looking at how much visa application is been delayed this days.

Please, I'd need your opinions on this

Thanks in advance

Good day guys, I would be needing your candid advice.

A few months ago, a friend urged me to apply to university of Hull for an MSc program. Reason been that the tution was reduced to 9k pounds for international students. I was a bit skeptical due to many reviews online about the harsh conditions around retention and student part-time student jobs. However, I applied for the fun since there were no application fees and last week I got 2 conditional offers in supply chain management and energy engineering from the university.

On a personal note, I'm more inclined to the supply chain management due to its universality in almost any industry with a focus on supply chain analytics. Energy engineering on the other hand is quite robust buh has limitations due to its reservation to just energy. I'm a self taught data analyst of 2 years with working experience in the energy sector and currently in fintech and I have been able to save up N3,500,000 for this journey. Clearly from previous posts, this won't suffice. I can foot up to the expected 34% tuition on arrival and hope I'm able to spread the remaining 66% across the 4th and 7th months by engaging in jobs.

My big question is how REALISTIC can 2k pounds be made in 3 months as a student? What are the likely penalties of defaulting?

On a lighter note, I have seen some interesting Supply chain analyst roles in UK from LinkedIn and the required skills are what I currently use for analyses in my job here. If you have an idea of the job market apart from what online searches have, do share!!

Furthermore, the resumption date is September 20th and I would really be grateful if someone outlines the next steps for me to take as I'm yet to accept or defer the offer. I'm a bit skeptical if I would be able to complete the processes on time and would be grateful to know how feasible it is to conclude all processes and travel a week before the resumption date.

Thanks in anticipation

it helps a lot thanks one more questions please
how much does Ibm certificate in data science cost you. and how fast can i get it?
i appreciate a lot

Okay.


I had to check again on edx to know exactly the new cost.
I think it's above $300 now and it contains 9 modules. A certificate comes after each module.


Asides the certification. It's actually rich in content.

All the best.

centurionpapa:

see the mail i just received
its confusing
i'm i moving to the next stage or not

Okay.
I think the issue here is that, some courses like data analytics, cloud engineering, project management need some sort of certification to help you progress.


For project management, you would need PMP. For cloud engineering, you should need AWS or Microsoft Azure.


In my case, I attached my IBM certificate in data science from Coursera, my previous recommendation and my git repository of projects I had worked on in the past. Since it's data science, attaching a certification from AWS, Microsoft or IBM should suffice. If you don't have, then maybe attach something from udemy or other cheaper sites.

I hope it helps.

hasaldebysh2006:
why should I used my email password? I can not even remember my email password.

Just open a new Google email address and use it for the test day. On my own day, I used one of my less active emails to login. One of the guys having issues with logging to his mail during my session had to open a new mail to receive his test link and take his test.

Meanwhile, had my third interview with my employers and it wasn't successful as I was more of an adventurous individual than a seat-behind-screen type of staff as they called me.

Regardless it was worth the experience.

We move on.

My guy I am not quite convinced about the authenticity of this company from Ur write-up. If anything at all, I am only more or less convinced about you being a member of the scam syndicate. Because this is the exact model such syndicates adopt: corroborating themselve on social media in order to convince the unsuspecting public


"Senior man" - the wisest.


I just had my online interview this evening which was the next phase after passing the assessment.

Just rest.

Every job is not for everyone.

Overlook this and wait for DSS to recruit you. You would be a good fit I assure you

Easy4reel:
Wow. This is so positive. Thanks for the update. Is it possible I get your contact? I like to ask a few things. My assessment is tomorrow.

Thank you.





Let me just break it down for you.

If you would use a public means of transportation, use okada and tell them to drop you off at Federal Housing Authority signboard. Use your google map and locate the place like it was stated in your mail and you should see a close. I was even directed by the security man of the close to the company gate cos I asked him if there was a company there, he said yes and pointed me in the right direction.

Identify with the security man at the gate of the building by showing your nysc and any national id. After which you wash hands and seat in a well spaced position that observes social distancing.

Seat and wait till your session is due to enter.

On entering, he would likely spend an hour addressing your set on dos and don'ts and would entertain questions also from you.

The questions would be set using 7 pages of Google forms and you would have to login to your email on the laptop you would be given to access the link. So my advice is be computer literate and also remember your email password cos a guy had difficulty login to his email during the onboarding process.

The questions are relatively cheap take it from me. It's below GMAT standard. Just be calm and smart in answering them. I finished in 30mins and you can do lesser.

When you are done, you should get a congratulatory message if you are successful cos the company uses an algorithm whereby the average of the scores of the people in a particular session is used as benchmark for pass or fail. So in essence, you guys are the determinants of your pass score. No standard was set by the company.

All the best

Mschweew.

Ogbeni shift.

Bursting Ko, bursting ni.

We are waiting for your updated rubbish.

As far as I'm concerned, there's absolutely nothing wrong with the company organising tests for people to take before linking them to their clients in an odd location. The location is even at the heart of festac besides customs and federal housing authority.

How many businesses out there are registered with C.A.C. but yet they make millions weekly and even don't pay tax. If this unregistered company like u said will help unemployed youths secure good and befitting jobs in the IT sector, the shame is on you and your cohorts.

Every process was orderly and in line with government health policies. Took it serious and I have been invited for the second round which is an online interview with one of the employers for the role of a data analyst.


So shut the Bleep up and don't dampen the spirit of others.

SOLARPOWER1:



I did a serious search on CAC website, there was no trace of the company whatsoever and this is supposed to be a multinational company according to their fake website... I have already reported tie email I received to CAC and I copied EFCC.....I also sent the email to a relative in Lagos in one of the authorities, they are bursting that place next week... I advice all to relax for updates... The scam in this country is already too much, giving us bad names on the international scene daily and I hate anything scam these days.

Hello bro
Happy sales to you.
I'm sorry but I have this same laptop and I encountered a problem recently. I saw you advertised that it plays most of the games at high definition. Recently, the PES 2019 stopped recognizing my Processor despite been corei7 and 2.6ghz but it ticks every other thing good including vram and as a result drags badly during game play.

Do you have any recommendations or solutions to fix or if u had encountered such problem with your laptop or other brands in the past?

Thank you!

Please I said it started recently so buyers, don't think the laptop it's faulty.
It's actually one of the cheapest laptops in terms of maintenance for such specs.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Apply For 2019 NNPC Graduate Trainee And Experience Hire by Stan999: 9:34am On Feb 21, 2020
Jarus:


I seriously doubt it will be canceled. PENGASSAN will not allow that. Don't forget they don't put such in offer letters. They are all embedded in the clause that says benefits are as stipulated in NNPC's condition of service.

There is no way that N1.5m quoted will be the only pay for GTs. NNPC is an oil company, not a ministry. Anyhow, the total package is competitive with other oil companies (bar IOCs and other top upstream independents).

Please Jarus and other members of the thread, how well do you know about the PETAN Graduate Internship position such as opportunities after, renumeration and length of selection process. Cos I just got a text this morning from dragnet scheduling me for an online test. Even though I don't remember applying.
I'm sorry to derail the thread cos I know the focus here is on EH
I missed out on the GT success APLs though.
