Please does anyone have any idea if the referees for UNILAG application must be academic referees?

I think I see where the issue might be from. The ref is I generated looks like the former 0704……. I will just go to the ICT unit to confirm what is going on.

Sent you a PM. Are there WhatsApp groups where we can share issues like this and possibly resources for the entrance exam?

wi5dom:
On the first day when the portal was opened, i generated a ref/payment ID, but i could not make the payment due to an error with the web or my bank, but i was able to upload document and could not submit the application because of the payment issue.
I called somebody who told me to exercise some patience till the next day which did not work.
So, i listened to my instinct:
1. create another account with same email address
2. make the payment through transfer which worked and the amount reflected as seen in the picture.
3. uploaded required documents and passport and
4. submitted.
Note that my ref former id/ref login which did not work looks like 07046*******, while the one that worked for me starts with 0804****.

I really appreciate this post. Please where did you learn your French?

Ghaliz:
Ma'am you'd benefit more by asking your questions openly no matter how ridiculous you think it is so that people with no financial incentive or stake in the matter can give you competent advice. Taking it offline on an anonymous site is asking for a world of trouble in my opinion.

Regardless let me offer some rudimentary guide through the entire process using mine as a quick example.

For the Federal Skilled Worker programme.
You typically need a degree, at least a year experience that fits a National Occupational Classification basically a list of professions they're looking for whose duties which must largely match the duties you performed during your employment.

For me I had a Master degree and previous employments, my last job I quit the month I started learning French full time, during the time I got my degree evaluated (literally a sheet of paper confirming your degree is equivalent to a Canadian one), I registered and took an English language test. After a year of learning French and a 2.5 Months exam prep, I wrote TCF (French IELTS for context) and thankfully passed.

I got a reference from one of my previous employers where I worked for only 2 years, I used this because it matched largely with a NOC. I didn't include my other employers because some were over a decade, I was freelance for a while I found out documenting freelance work or self employment is not quite easy neither is it straightforward, the business must be registered, you must present evidence of full time work 1560 hrs a year, references from your client, sometimes audited financial statements of your company and tax documents. I found it easier to just roll with an employer.

I waited to enter the pool because I was gathering documents, calculating how much is needed, selling property, documenting the sale, took a few trips to the land registry


I got into the pool, got an ITA in a French draw barely 4 days after. I gathered all my documents, it's pretty straightforward the system provides a checklist of documents you require. Whenever there are extenuating circumstances or the documents don't tell the full story attach a letter of explanation.

Pre-application

Familiarise yourself with the process, YouTube, ChatGPT is great help. You'd be an expert in no time, it is impossible to subcontract this process.

What you shouldn't do is pay for help, you're going to create a perverse incentive system where things are presented in an opaque, hard to understand manner to keep the gravy train moving.

Ok. So I have also paid. My own is that I paid 22k instead of 40k. Then the session showed 2025/2026. I paid on the 10th of April or so.
My concern is just the amount I paid and the session showed. I am able to continue the application. It just is not allowing me upload documents.

webberman:
Hello Bro,

I have actually paid. However, it showed me 22,000 rather than 40000 and it showed me 2025/2026 rather than 2026/2027. was this your experience and do you know if there is a whtsapp group where people can share their experiences?

wi5dom:
Yes
I created/started another new application, and got a payment advice with the amount, 40000 stated. Not blank this time with same email address.

Susily:
Good evening Nairalanders, and Happy New year

Pls Which platform can one use in Nigeria to engage in Options Trading of US stocks?

I'm interested in trading options and it seems the Fintech companies that operate in Nigeria like Trove, Chaka, Passfolio don't have provision for option trading

Pls any recommendations?? A platform where someone living in Nigeria can use for option trading

Thanks

Please which did you eventually use?

kingreign:
Depends on your location and where you intend getting it from.

I am in Lagos. Do you also think this is what is affecting the ABS and brake? Or that's most likely an entirely different thing.

kingreign:
Replace rear left wheel speed sensor.
Do you have a Check engine light on?

Yes I do have the check engine light on aswell. Any idea how much this might cost? I mean the rear left wheel speed sensor.

Yes I do have that light on aswell. Any idea how much this might cost?

Hello Guys,

Please I have a few issues with my 2006 gs350. The scan code is below. Anyone with ideas on how to approach this issue? It has been giving me some headache really. No noticeable issue with the vehicle though. But those lights on are just very alarming.

Some of the lights on are
AFS, ABS, Brake, check 4wd, check VSC

Bricks92:
What exactly are your doubts? Please share.

I will. Once the application is closed, I can ask my questions.

There still certain things that seem unclear about this program. Please can somebody say where the venue of the interview is?

Abeg anybody on here used a phone for the test?

Please add 08061573121

Abeg. I just need a job. I read Electrical Engineering.

Please I'm looking for some practical experience in this field (network engineering). I have theoretical training but nothing practical. If any of you can help. Thanks!

Anfieldboss:
Who else got a mail/SMS for a test with Dragnet on Saturday 15th September, 2018.

Is this the one they requested for postgraduate degree? If yes, is the test in batches?

Please any idea on what to read for the test?
