Hmmm..Thanks for the feedback bro.. i will still await their mail, if not, i will go there on thursday for confirmation and to play safe. to avoid stories that touched the heart that i missed my interview.

As per ur situation, it s dicey o. if you dont get a reply, i will rather you go before environmental and hang around that area. just to be safe.

tyadelaja:

Where I dey? I dey around, I know you'll be going for interview in the coming days. Congrats to the invitees, you did exceptionally well in the test especially. It's funny to expect I will come to enumerate what the interview will entail.

However, get yourself prepared on behavioural-based interview method and what you can bring to the table as a "your position". What makes you different from others, is it your training, design, soft skills, etc?

DDE and HSE candidates should expect a more rigorous interview because they are not going to undergo structured training like others but a crash induction. Also there are a few guys from "nowhere" that have joined the competition. So, be at your best!

The only situation that will warrant calling more people is that significant number of those invited didn't show up for the interview or do perform very poorly.
Best wishes!

Any invite for HSE? So confused..Seems no one was invited for the HSE. Meanwhile can someone gatecrash the interview? Sound crazy right? but I believe everything is possible

kissoflife:
Damn!!!! any electrical tech been called?

Calm down guys. Anxiety will not draw nearer the next stage, neither will it push that further. You will see, you will know.

However, as expected marking is over, approx 200 scripts of mainly multiple choice wouldn't be tough task though. Candidates are being ranked based primarily but not only on test scores. There's a compilation ( don't know if brought to test venue) containing qualifications, bosiet, exp/affiliate, etc. These are weighted with weak bias such that for example Mr A could score 5 points higher than Mr B, but B might be ranked higher for having BOSIET/MSc (for HSE/DDE) or HND for operators/technicians. A couple of guys had PhD though. This method wasn't designed to fail anyone. This exercise was cut out to be highly organized and professionally conducted. Merit is the watchword.

Meanwhile, as indications of the indigenous company in question emerged, people who know people have besieged the company directors pushing for their candidates, even those who didn't take test. Hopefully this will not scuttle the process, at least to a significant level.

As soon as the parties involved conclude arrangements, highest ranking ones would be scheduled for interview/further examinations. Different days for different categories. Successful ones are expected to start Dec/Jan.

I am only privileged to access some information. I do not work for any of the companies and at the same time, I have limitation as to the specifics that I can reveal.

These are current standings and one woman/man can stand and turn around the scenarios at will. So they are not cast on stone.

Good luck everyone. People will be contacted just soon.

Hehehe . . . No one is reporting. How far guys?

Well, I heard that there were approx 40 candidates that sat for each category and they were given EXAMS to write. Initial quick review of the papers shows that candidates performed extraordinarily poorly. Even though marking has not commenced in essence, a category like drilling engineering might not have up to 5 people cross 35%. Good luck guys.

For Operators and Technicians : Schematics, P&ID, PFD, Causes and Effect matrix.

adejohndemi:
From what I gather , the training for operators and technicians will commence in January, recruitment process will finish this year, they will call anytime soon.

tyadelaja:


But we dont know how many they intend to absorb. whether they are recruiting for a new field or still AGBAMI Oil field

MOBIL11:
Experience ke? What criteria did they actually use for shortlisting? I have a friend who has vast experience & international trainings/certifications in drilling that wasn't called but someone without experience was called for Production Operator role. Goodluck guys.

Yinbanjonic:

thanks for your reply maybe they also looked the grade you finished from school, I finished with lower credit but my friend that finished with upper credit is not invited.but what grade did you graduated with?

tyadelaja:


They invited my guy with MSc self (with oil and gas experience). The truth is that the competition gets stiffer by the day.

Yinbanjonic:

what I meant is that did they call OND student or only HND and BSC they called?

Yinbanjonic:

production operator and mechanical technician
they are OND student

Yinbanjonic:
but what is the criteria used to select those they call for the test because most of my friends are not called

adejohndemi:
@talent1, I quite agree with you the recruitment is for experienced guys and not trainees, but what seems to confuse people more is the fact that they said successful applicants will undergo a one year vocational training, so if you are recruiting experienced people , why do you have to train them for one year and after that they will undergo OJT for another one year? Anyways they decide their terms and conditions, all we can hope for now is that we be among the shortlisted, thank you.
