Good luck to all the GT’s having their interviews today.

Thanks!

kkash:
Skill set questions were asked....basically the work flow of one of d softwares I used, and some other questions....buh it's not up to 5....
D behavioral questions took a large chunk of d interview

Is it a software you used on your CV?

ExpertNLer:
Was there any indication of when you'll hear back? I assume 2-3 weeks

I doubt. I think after the first interview, each stage is just a couple of days.

Did they also tell you to bring along a calculator previously?

kkash:
Well...5 asked me questions...while one was just typing and didn't say anything

Were the technical questions related to your course of study?

kkash:
I started around 12 and finished around past 1....d questions were numerous....

Wow, that's long. And all that time on just questions, or did the EH do a test as well?

kkash:
So any EH that is yet to do....90% of the questions are behavioral questions....1.5mins per question and always go straight to the point.....
The panel consists of 6 ppl....just do your best

Thank you. How long was it, if I may ask?

Hunter102:
All the best. When is the interview?

We get to schedule it online.

GT INVITATION JUST DROPPED!

Ken5yne:

Oh, okay. I didn't know what you were responding to. Yeah, a lot of people that did the test physically have also gotten invites. It's not just virtual.

Ken5yne:
Not true..lots of people invited to the interview from my end all did theirs in center.. ph and Uyo respectively

Graduate Trainees?

kkash:
Just saw d invite....wch is tomorrow....how.....sent invite today for tomorrow...

Nice. Congratulations. Did they schedule both interviews or just the one?

Niks10:
Did you guys apply in March cos I didn’t even get a mail from GTB at all

I think those that applied and got the letters did so in March.

GeeLuckUrch:
I was asked to send my CV and a 2 slide presentation about myself and final year project last month. My interview was supposed to be on Tuesday but was rescheduled because of the holidays

Have you advanced further now?

Trovet:
have Gtb done first assessment interview
Fir everyone??

I applied march though

They've sent out training school letters already after the 2 interviews.

For the EH that interviewed today, how was it?

Hunter102:
What's your discipline St. Daniel, Chem. Engr.?

Mech.

Viceroy007:
If your status hasn't changed,it's advisable you move on

WE HAVE HEARD YOU ALREADY. YOU CAN MOVE ON.

mictom:
Both actually. Reading through this thread and the intending GTs that indicated a change of status said they did theirs virtually. From page 17 or so. I haven’t seen anyone here that said physically. It’s possible it may not be the case though. I believe StDaniel indicated virtual. Another person did as well

I think Enny did it physically and got a status change.

Haxeel:
How far StDaniel
GT'S received mail yet?

Not yet. It took two days after the EH status changed for the GT status to change, so hopefully the sae will follow for the invitations. We can expect them by tomorrow, which will hopefully be the latest.

fisimaster:

I killed it.

Silly questions are usually the right ones that most are not bold enough to ask. But sincerely, in this situation how can one know the questions you got correctly, there is no feedback on that ( I have written some tests where your results are displayed immediately after the test).

Having said that, aptitude tests are speed and accuracy tests, and as such you may not necessarily recall all the questions and answers, and for me I don't necessarily do exact calculations, mostly mental maths techniques (you have to learn how to use approximation techniques to close in on the right answer, i.e intelligent guessing techniques). There are online resources that can help you learn such techniques and prepare better for such tests.

Did I know I killed it? Well, I can only say my confidence level for each of them is as follows:

Abstract: Very high, perhaps confident enough to say I should be hitting the above 90% mark. Had sufficient time remaining to go through each question again to dot the i's and cross the t's and still had about a minute remaining.

Verbal: High - say the 80%ish mark. Had some time remaining to also revise my answers but not as much as for the Abstract test.

Quantitative: Mid to high - I couldn't finish but I must admit it wasn't also one of my best. I had a very bad start (perhaps due to insufficient preparations unlike the ones I have done in the past) and that affected me all the way, I only properly attempted like 75% of the questions, the remaining were intelligent guessing .

In a nutshell, preparation is key, aptitude tests are methodological tests that require some level of training just like IELTS, GRE/GMAT, etc.

In other words, you killed it, lol.

Ejay222:
Does anyone know what the interview process is like for Experienced Hires?

It appears we will be having two interviews, one technical and the other non-technical, but i'm not sure. I just know I've got to appear at Exxon on Monday (tomorrow) and Tuesday (next day) as per their invitation. The first invite noted to be prepared for technical exercises and candidate should be equipped with a scientific calculator.

Anyone has any insights? Any interview questions from those who have experienced the process before will also help.

Honestly that sounds good. It's better than spacing everything out. You might even get a feedback before this week ends. W.

Who are the ExpertNler's? Are they staff or moderators of Nairaland? I see them everywhere and in every thread.

BetterKola:
When is the interview?

It hasn't dropped yet. Probably tomorrow for GT, or this night.

NUGBVB1909:
Yeah. But this doesn't give room for logistical arrangements (for some of us not based in Lagos). I mean one already has an office commitment on Monday, it's quite unrealistic to give someone such a short notice period, especially for experienced hires who already have work commitments and can't just skip work like that. I must say for a company like Exxon it's quite disappointing, the last interview with them we were given at least a week's notice.

Their office in VI right?

YAY! GT invites INCOMING!!!!

Fembex:
