...come to think of it, how would one think NNPC as 'big' as they are can make a mistake by paying double or triple payments? 2012 recruitment, they 40k to PH folks... Now, 7years later, they're paying 20k... Shouldn't the pay rise with the increasing inflation in the country?

In my humble opinion, we should expect at least 60k as TP from the SS, SE, SW... an average flight ticket to Abuja and back from the south is about 60k.

May be they just realized, and decided to pay after approval...

Just my thought!

Good luck guys!

adeakin777:
Anyone writing to NNPC on multiple payments is just plain stupid, i'm sorry to say. The erratic payments by NNPC as an established organisation can/should easily have been detected by now, they honestly don't need you to remind them. If you were not on nairaland, i am sure you would definitely be unaware that some people were/are yet to receive payment. As a matter of fact, you'd assume as a norm that the streams of payments are being made in batches. If you want to display your modesty, kindly contact anyone who hasn't been paid and do a transfer, as simple as that.

FYI- I have only been paid once.

@easymoneysniper, why is it your source alone that has info to share as touching APL disbursement date? If it’s play make you come out com yarn am now o.

I just spoke with a senior colleague now and all he could tell me was that NNPC is busy with management restructuring.

I hope you are not raising people’s hope for nothing come nextweek.

You guys should rest already. Leave @easymoneysniper alone, I was the first to drop the date for the APL as 9/9/2019. Just wait and see as events play out... or give us your own date, we are open to options!

Firstgentleman1:
I think the mystery shrouding the Transport fare is gradually getting unraveled.


Payments are made mostly according to date of interview, followed by CBT centers then amount.


Based on observation, I discovered that the first set of mass payments (6th of July interviewees) were paid 20k, with majority coming from Lagos and Port Harcourt. The reason why that particular day was highly publicized is because a lot of Nairaland's ACTIVE users are Lagos based.


Some people from other locations got paid too on that same 6th, but they were in the minority. With what I have come to observe, NNPC had a template for the interview invite and I'd try to draft a rough sketch of this template.


On every interview day, certain states would dominate the list for a stipulated time. Take for instance, on the 1st, 7am, each panel would attend to people that had their CBT from a particular state.


Assuming you had your interview slated for 7am, and you made it to panel 13, there is every likelihood that the 5 of you called up at that point in time had your CBTs in the same state. Meanwhile, at the same time in another panel, say panel 15, the people that would be called up would be people from another state entirely.


The reason for my guess is this, in my panel, we were the first to go in for 12pm batch for that particular panel. The last guy for the 9am batch was seated awaiting his turn. The 5 of us that just got called up got talking and we discovered we all had our CBT in the same state, not same center. The other 4 were from same state excluding me who was from a different state. A man even came to engage us, and was saying it that those 4 were competing against themselves. We then shifted our attention to the guy we met, we asked if he wrote his Cbt in the state we did ours, he replied with an emphatic no, and even went ahead to tell us that the guys they called up together, i.e, the last set for 9am wrote their CBT in the same state.


I was at the interview with a friend from same CBT state. He was slated for 2pm I think, but a different discipline entirely. I asked if he noticed anything about the people he was called with to his panel and he pointed out that their CBT centre was the same state. Another clear pattern established.


Now, lumping all these together, we can establish an interview invite pattern, then from there draw a reasonable inference regarding the pattern of Tfare payment.


1. The panels are discipline/department specific - Correct.


2. When a particular set of interviewees of a particular time gets called up, first it is clear that they are of same discipline set(e.g Economics/Accounting/finance/banking & finance).. Secondly, they all did their CBT in the same state.


3. Which means on any set date, people of different CBT states interviewed. One thing that is sure though is that certain dates dominates a particular date.


4. This explains why when some dates get paid, we get to hear of certain states dominating the payment.


5. Some of those dates that have been settled has Lagos, Kaduna, Portharcourt, Oyo, Abuja as domineering states. The core Northern states dominated too, but we can't be privy to that because most of them are not here, but they have gotten nonetheless. I confirmed from some Northern friends that has friends from there.


6. That explains why the recent payment of 2nd of July had a lot of Nasarawa, Jos, Benue, Niger among others.


7. Anyone can correct me if I am wrong, but I am sure 4th,1st, 5th have not been paid. As for 4th which I belong to, a lot of kwara CBT candidate dominated that same day and none of them have been paid.


What this means is that payment is done by picking the sheet of papers that has our account details, then pay everyone in that order. Everyone will still get paid at the end of the day. Except in the case of error.


This is just me with my usual way of thinking. If you point out any observation or point made in error, you can kindly call my attention to it. We are all in this together. Local men formulating theories and lightening the thread's atmosphere with high level comic relief and ridiculous and rib cracking theories. You are all appreciated.


As for we the foreign men, we look on and follow with interest till the last day. Foreign men has no association for now, but anyone can take the initiative to get us started, registered and fully incorporated. Unlike Local men that can't can, we foreign men can all the time.


Peace to you all.



Well, my experience was totally a different scenario. Had my interview on the 8th of July, EH, PHC CBT. Panel 10..... There were 6 of us interviewed by the same panel: All EH, Mech Engr, Civil Engr, Systems Engr, Barrister, Chartered accountant, and an Elect Engr.

In this case, how do you explain the fact that a panel interviewed both STEM and non STEM disciplines.

I also recalled that the interviews were in templates. For instance, a particular field say Mech Engr EH for a particular day has the same set of questions... and this was similar across other disciplines.

During my interview as a Mech Engr EH, I was asked questions on mechanical seals, renewable energy, QSHE, and situational adaptive questions.,. My colleagues that were interviewed on the same day by different panels were asked the same question.

What got me thinking was the fact, the chief panelist mistakingly asked me a question on structural analysis, a question meant for Civil Engr... then one of the quickly dashed in and said... that was for the civil guy.

This means, they have a daily prepared questions for different fields which are distributed across the panels. That explains why a panel can interview a barrister, an Engr, as well as an accountant.

My observation: NNPC optimally used what they have in the human capital to run the interviews... may be to cut outsourcing costs.

I rest my case.

Wish all the very best... See u at the TOWERS.

Contract staff would be Considered (depending on the type ),they were also interviewed. But no special consideration for support o and they cannot strike ,they dont have a union .

Let me just waka jeje out ....peace guys

To buttress what this local man just said, I met a course mate of mine in the Towers during the just concluded interview who is a contract staff... He congratulated me with amazement when I told him I applied for EH position. Reason being that he couldn't apply as a result of his age. He is older than me. He told me equivocally when I probed that all the contract staff in NNPC were asked to apply like every other Nigerian. Those who were qualified, passed through the same process like you and I. No preferential treatment of any kind.

I left the UK a couple of years ago having completed an MSc degree, top of my class. I felt quite devastated that I would return to Nigeria not having enough time to apply for jobs. While some of us were busy sorting it out in libraries, a couple of guys were resign to accepting whatever the outcome of studies, and were busy applying for jobs like mad.

I started a good buying and selling hustle, and was able to secure a job with an E&P coy 15 months after returning. I have had funded opportunities to pursue PhD since then but I have declined because they were geared towards addressing problems in Europe. I soon realized that returning back isn’t a death sentence after all. And if I must pursue a PhD or other degrees, it should be one that would solve one or some of the numerous challenges here in Nigeria. Novel solutions including strong regulations that would address issues like waste management problem; how we can all enjoy a clean and healthy environment.

It’s a big shame that the issue of banditry is a mockery because we still adopt archaic approach; that’s why the faceless guys could hit easily and run to the depth of our forest, causing ‘Sevia pains.’ I have imagined the design and implementation of a long range motion detector that could span several kilometers, deploying radar systems/radio wave/etc with several base stations, with high resolution smart cameras with IP addresses and facial recognition. Something that would watch the nooks and crannies of our forest—so much prospects from such projects.

Also, it would shock you to know how some of the major players in our O&G industry are milking us dry due to poor hydrocarbon accounting/non declaration of actual crude produced on daily basis. If one must think of an approach for this country, one must factor-in policies. Non effective policies/no policy at all, and terrible culture are the major problems affecting our country.

I think it’s necessary for one to study this country deeply and decide on an issue to address before thinking of further studies.

I am happy that I came back because I have gone ahead to solving massive massive problems for my family and friends; things that wouldn’t have been easy for me to do if I had remain abroad. The best one could get as entry ( often, your experience in naija dont count) in the UK is about 28k pounds to 36k pounds/annum for high paying jobs ( Jaguar Land Rover, British Petroleum, etc). That comes down to about 25/33k after tax. Factor-in other expenses, then you are very average and basically a backpacker if you reside anywhere near London( London Burroughs, Reading, Cambridge, etc) as accomodation can be very expensive.

Also, anything can happen. An employer may discontinue sponsoring your work permit, it may be difficult to find another. You may become desperate and opt for a lower paying job if you are lucky enough to find one in-time before expiration of your visa. This is applicable in the US and other countries as well.

A Job with NNPC isn’t bad at all if it will still amount to finding a job after earning a foreign degree. You can be on the job and pursue a masters degree, on the side, if you are so keen about it. One will have lot of flexibility working in an organization like NNPC. You will learn a lot including the politics in our energy sector, and if you are observant and smart enough, you will find lot of issues to address. You can then come up with a framework/solution and think of how to implement it by pursuing further degree or by other means.

One shouldn’t go do a masters/PhD just for the prospects of better jobs or living best live abroad—you may succeed or fail at that, and you would’ve missed the point. You will derive satisfaction knowing that you addressed a problem spot-on or that you tried your best in an attempt.

Lastly, I know a couple of guys who came from the UK and US for this interview, and are praying they get APL. My two cents cool

Guy, you've spoken well. Who no go, no go know. I had similar experience... I had to pack my bag after my MSc back to 9ja. I am happy I did. I am praying for my APL to secure my career and contribute to nation building.

All that glitters ain't gold they say...

Lol why should this be a tough decision to make. Like do you know what a top 5 US institution is: MIT, Harvard, Stanford, Caltech, UC Berkeley etc. FFS this is a no brainer. I know someone that turned down shell offer some years back and went for masters in one of these schools, he is a big boy in the US now. Heck I might even turn down NNPC for masters in a top 20 US school with full funding especially when it is a STEM course or even Economics.

Oga, don't try it. If God gives you this job, don't dump it for any masters. Just a friendly advice.
