Jobs/VacanciesRe: Dear 2017 Pre-selected Applicant, Good Evening, Please See The News Below. Ki by TGM2015: 7:45pm On Dec 07, 2017
npowerng:
Kindly visit any of this support center close you.
Good evening NPower,

Please I have a friend who discovered that her AfriOne 2in1 screen has broken. The questions now are:

1. Are NPower devices under any warranty and if yes, is the warranty for AfriOne covers a broken screen. Please note that most people with AfriOne devices have same problem.
2. Can she go to the NPower support centers for this repairs or not. And if not, where can should she go to for her phone repairs.
3. And for the repair services, is she expected to pay for this type of repairs or not.

Above all, I will suggest that NPower team should review the durability of AfriOne devices as they a prone to have their screens break easily.

Thank you.

God bless you Bro for d response. really appreciate
so if power point is not used then what is been used for d presentation....
2)during the time we Will be given to prepare are we going to be permitted to use our phones for stuffs like browsing d internet to get more details?
3)is there a format for the presentation e. g introduction, summary, conclusion and recommendation.
sorry for asking too many questions... am usually very nervous when it comes to stuff like presentation. .thanks
1. You will be given a flip chart paper and a maker for your presentation. I will advice you to articulate your thoughts before writing on the flip chart paper. You are to go with your one sheet of flip chart paper given, hang the paper on the flip chart stand, then present. On how to use, you should ask around for that yourself but flip chart paper is just like a big photo copying paper (up to the double the size of a poster) and flip chart stand is the board on which you will clip the flip chart paper.
2. You will not be allowed to used anything except the writing materials given to you, which may include biro, a sheet of photocopying, calculator, maker, pencil and sharpener.
3. There is no pre-approved format for your presentation. You are to decide what information you want to discuss or present to the panel based on the case study given to you. That is were your critical thinking and analysis skills come into play with adequate presentation skill.

Thank you, I may not be able to answer further questions along this line as I consider it, with level of education of the candidates invited, this questions are things that can be personally research on at least all candidates must have complete a research work (project).

Thanks bro
I want to ask if u do av an insight as to the range of applicants invited and how many to be likely selected.

More so, would there be at any point questions on ones personality?!

Do MSc guys have an edge over the pure BSc
Also Banking related courses over Engineering/pure Sciences in the final selection...

Will one be paid d basic salary after the 2months training school.. Or will be paid a stipulated sum assigned squarely for the completion of the T.S

lastly, is one certain of deployment immediately after TS...

Thanks bro!!!!
I don't have information on numbers of applicants that were invited for assessment centre. But one post confirmed that they are 300, which I assume can be true. Then with that number, the possible final selection will be around 80 candidates.

There will not be a personality test, I guess or let me say sure of that.

Higher degrees, graduates of banking/financial related courses or professional qualifications except ICT related certifications will not have edge above of other SUCCESSFUL applicants in the assessment centre.

The bank does not pay basic salary to her staff but an emoluments or in their terms compensation. This includes basic salary and other benefits. When you are in their training school you will be paid a stipend. And after training school (TS) you will be deployed immediately. You will be given a week holiday between the end date of the TS and your resumption date, which mostly likely will be at their Head Office, Marina Lagos for about six months before final redeployment to branches or departments you are to work.

adakaibeyamma:
Please, I have stage fright. Do I begin by saying good morning all or what. How do I introduce myself and the topic
Possibly there will not be a stage. It will just be a room with 2 - 4 people (just like an official interview) where you are required to present (tell them):

1. what you believe are the underlying root cause of identified problems in the situation (case study) you read;
2. what possible actions that wrongly taken and missing controls that may have prevented such to occur such problems (what actions or decisions that supposed to have been taken or made);
3. corrective solutions to the problem (what should be done to reverse the effects of the wrong actions and decisions);
4. steps or actions that you are convinced of, that when taken will prevent such problems to occur in the future (your recommendations and suggestive solutions);
5. (if time permits) the current effects and future implications of the identified problems if you recommendations and suggestions are not urgently implemented.

So, take the case study as your friends narrating his/her workplace problems to you (though you have no opportunity to ask questions for clarification but assumptions are allowed and must be made known when presenting). You ask for time to get back to him/her, though you are limited in this case to minutes contained in the instructions. Then see the panel as group of friends to whom you're telling (noticed I used tell them earlier) your view of the situation and how best they should go about solving the problem and things to do not to allow recurrent of such.

Google effective presentation skills and somehow try to
1. Practice presentations of similar things with friends two or more times,
2. Look above the panels eye level and prepare your mind to see them as your friends (you be amazed that you brain can condition your mind to do that),
3. Tell them, you don't need academic or intellectual show here (at least, assessment center, primarily is to evaluate skills and not knowlledge) you opinion of the situation at hand (the cause, solution to correct and prevent future occurrence).

They will ask you questions after your presentation. This is either to get information on some aspects of the case you missed out (attention to details) or get clarification on your recommendations or description of the case given. So don't panic, tell them if you know it and if not be honest to admit you don't commit the details to heart (most times, this always relates to figures and numbers). But at least, immediately and the word BUT after acknowledging that and tell them brief about it a short and simple sentence. For example, I sincerely do not commit the actual number to heart, BUT. I observed that the GDP have been increasing from quarter to quarter with less than 1%.

Skills to be test for personal (individual presentations) are innovative thinking, problems analysis and problems solving skills, attention to details.

For group work, make sure you contribute to discussions at least. This is just to identify some (dominan) personality traits. Are you a dominant person or reserved? These may determine where you may be deployed to if eventually you are successful, whether front office, middle office or back office.

Summary, be yourself and don't be too academic. They are not assessing your academic intelligence, this has already been done with the first two stages.

Hope these help? Thank you.

Congratulations to those who have been invited for AC. If successful, you will receive an invitation for medical and then invitation for final documentation and Training school.

Hi guys. Please I want to ask if there is a possibility that union bank will consider a pregnant lady or she shouldn't bother going for the assessment.
Union Bank don't discriminate based on this. But there will be no provision to support or give medical help to pregnant people or people with health challenges at least at the AC.
My advice is to check your health and go along with possible drugs, food or anything to keep you strong and healthy during your stay. This also applies to people with health challenges such as asthma, ulcer, etc.

Hello pal, do you mean another test again in the AC?? I hope the AC is the last stage of all these test and test. Also any idea on how much they pay Management Trainee. It is good to know what someone is going into.
Hi,
Assessment centre is just an avenue to assess some personality traits and skills needed according to the company. For UBN, these skills include strategic thinking, collaboration, communication, teamwork, etc. Therefore, you really need not to work up yourself reading to pass the test. Just be yourself, at least if you have a good comprehension and problem analysis/solving skills you are good to go. You also need to pay more attention to details.

You will possibly be given some passages that contains some narration of some critical situations and you will be asked to identify the problem and the underlying responsible factors to the problems. Make presentations on one and discuss with others colleagues of about 5-7 candidates on some given tasks in the other passage.

So give yourself enough rest, be at your best and be the original person you are, then pray and always wish yourself the best.

The process is known to be fair (though can not guarantee the transparency), at least even if the final selection criteria are not known, selected candidates will surely be fairly selected. There might probably be higher ratio of unsuccessful to successfully candidates this time around due to last recruitment (this yea) experiences where majority of those assessed fell below expectations. The number of final intakes last time was less than planned. The ratio may possibly be 1 to 5 for this recruitment, my guess though.

On the pay, successful applicants will be paid some allowances at the training school. This amount will stated in the TS call up/invitation letter, mostly paid in two equal amounts. Net take home pay every month, at average, is above 190K after the Training School.

Congratulations to prospective employees of the bank.
Please note that I have limited access to my profile's email, hence will always be unable to respond to any DM. Any request/questions will be welcomed here, thank you.

Pin charger nah pin charger; which one be small pin charger? I no get sha.
Only Nokia phone users understand better. There are"big mouth pin chargers" and "small mouth pin chargers".
Funny enough I have both but I can't confirm if the big mouth own is still good, it has been over 8 years I used that. But for small pin charger, I still have a working one with me here. It works well with those China phone as alternative to their micro USB charging port.
So, funnynation request is on point only that the statement is mostly use to show how irrelevant the current discussion was. Because in this time and age, no one should be talking of a pin (whether big or small) mouth charger.
CareerRe: Julius Berger Rumored To Have Sacked 400 Workers, Shutdown Work On Lagos-Ibadan by TGM2015: 10:02pm On Oct 09, 2017
Rhesusmonkey:
Jb started earth muving works on dt road on d last quarter of 2013, by early 2014 they wia already working on the existing cross drainages and oda structures dia, mind u dt dey started work from interchange going towards lagos. By may 2015 dey wia almost done with laying of the required asphalt thickness and laying of the binder course too up to few meters to rccg camp, infact they even did the side drain on both sides of the road too. work was continuos till mid june 2015 wen d site was first shut down.
First note my choice of word, "no tangible work". And you post is no different from mine and babaolofin. To be fair to Fashola, He did his best to liaise with the then Governor of Ogun State and religious bodies with camp along the expressway (Lagos - Sagamu) but the Governor in coalition with FG government frustrated that move. Fashola and the religious bodies have to retreat, while Fashola withdrew, the religious bodies most especially Redeem create alternative route. Billion of naira was spent on the road by Obasanjo who conceived the current plan for the road (6 line expressway) but have nothing to show, then Jonathan for political jamboree takeover. Hence, the 2013 slow paced work through 2015, same reasons for second Niger Bridge.

The baseline now is, if work stop on the road, Nigerians and the National Assembly are to be blamed and not Fashola or Buhari because these contractors come back to site on the trust and commitment these see in the latter individual.

See, forget those pictures babaolofin was right. By I journey frequently along those road most especially Lagos - Sagamu and Sagamu - Benin road.
The nearest example I can give you is the ground breaking ceremony and pictures of second Niger bridge. Put away sentiment (political or ethnics) no tangible work was done until few months to last election.

Keep the pregnancy and move on with life. While I support below advises, I will need to add that you ignore the pain/shame and take the lesson learnt. And more importantly start preparing yourself to be a good mother and guidance to the child so that s/he will not, I mean never, be in such situation as yours.

May God leads and help you, I wish you all the best.

Seriously? angry huh At 39 years old you don't know the consequences of unprotected sex and you don't know what plans a guy has for you at this stage to determine if he's worth it?
As it is now,he may or may not marry you.I will advise you keep the baby.You are advanced in age and the fact that you have had a myomectomy.Future pregnancies may not easily come and if they do,you are going to be classed as a high risk pregnancy(I speak only from a medical perspective).
You could end up a single mother but life goes on.I don't think you will regret having the baby in the future.

For the states listed, only beneficiaries who selected devices before March 27th, 2017 will be contacted.

Similarly, those who selected Brian and Speedstar devices in those states will not be contacted as the devices were recently delivered and are currently being pre-loaded with information.

For Rivers States, you will recall that we placed the device distribution in that state on hold, we will be sharing updates on the decentralized device collection process shortly.

Plans are underway to get devices to beneficiaries in other states so please be patient.
