Yes it is a stupid question and your explanation is so elementary and ridiculous

Please go away

Guy you go school at all ?
1.Google don’t generate answers they only show results based on past submissions on the internet. Hence this thread is not stupid cos information on this page reflects the current state of dragnet.
2.Many people get to know about Nairaland through google search
3. Even if you use google search what if the last submission related to your query Is not up to date
For example one time I was searching for current price of some building materials and all information I could find was from 2010-17.
If someone had created a thread about it like a week ago I did have gotten more valuable info. Peace

How old are you. ?

Mysmartnetwork:

How old are you. ?

Definitely older than you cause I figure you are probably between the age of 10 to 13 years old

Such a very shallow minded approach to determining who is good enough for a Job. Even if it was in a Law firm Mtcheeew.

Viking07:
The first and last encounter I had with them was in 2014. After I arrived at their almighty venue, they asked all those not putting on a tie to go home, that was how I left.

Well any way add this to your knowledge, google is just a search engine and you can’t find what does not exist in the first place , and don’t join the lots of people who thinks google have an answer to every question.

Seems you enjoy the mirage that you are intelligent?

Take a hint, I am not interested in having any conversation with you, as you don't know enough to teach me anything.

Did you get the job through the said dragnet?

Hello,
@edofirstborn and @mysmartnetwork no need to insult each other, I'm sure you're both good individuals.
My name is Baba, I'm a co-founder of Dragnet and a colleague of mine just sent this thread to me. Glad to read that most of you have moved on to do good things. For those that will soon own a bank, we say AMEN to that, and hope to pitch our services to you one day sir/ma.

Just to address a few points, abd perhaps support the point where someone said our own is "oversabi":

1. GMAT is predictive of academic performance and not workplace performance, which is why it is used by schools and not recruitment consultants (well at least the ones that know).

2 Workforce is a good company with clever people running it, so I very much doubt that they would turn candidates away for wearing a tie, unless the invite categorically stated so. The context needs to be explained. Their goal like ours is to identify the best candidates and they put a lot of effort into doing this well.

3a. @cdieli it is uncharacteristic (highly improbable) of our staff to act that way, especially in front of a client, and so I apologise incase you got the client name wrong. However we have not conducted interviews for Fidelity Bank, YET. Perhaps your first comment about Dragnet leading to significant GMAT prep, is unrelated to the comment about your interview experience at Fidelity Bank. We try to meet or exceed client standards, and would have shown the type of emotional intelligence exhibited by the excellent Fidelity bank staff, especially because the best people (the ones that we are trying to get for the client) have options, and their experience of the recruitment process impacts on their judgement (alongside salary, location, etc).

3b. Our interest in universities is real. We offered them everything from free CBT software when nobody had it, to a free electric/hybrid car to help students see first -hand where the world is going. However connecting candidate performance to university is done empirically/objectively, not through such an engagement at the interview you say that you experienced. Our last work on this saw us take the results of over 800k test takers, filtering the data to pool those that took the tests under identical conditions, from which we ranked the universities by candidate performance, to know which one came top. The answer was Covenant University. We also enjoyed that exercise because it informed us about new things we did not know, like FUTA and FUTO are in the TOP 10 of institutions in Nigeria, producing grads for the workplace. (Note that this information does not tell you who has the best programmers, lawyers, doctors, data analysts, ESG course, or entrepreneurs. Yet it is useful information).

4. @octopusbottle getting good sleep before a test is very important. The brain needs it in order to be optimal. (PS: you're not an olodo). Please help explain the "collect people phone number".

Thanks for the memories, I definitely recall the EM experience of 2012, and having to redo the test. It helped shape the company we became, and definitely tested us. As for where we are now, you may no longer see us because you are not chasing graduate recruitment jobs, but I hope we will see more of each other as we've expanded to handle Nigerian and international certification exams. Those that are now in a bank doing the Chartered Institute exams, or those in Personnel management or Taxation, will engage our technology for certification exams (which you can now do from the comfort of your home, securely). For other certification exams you can go to www.dragnet-solutions.com/dptc where you will find for example the Canadian exams for doctors, and many more global high security exams. So those experiences that you recall, taught us a lot, it cost us a lot, but helped us grow.

This is too long sha, hope it was at least informative.

Baba

Hmm

Well done for the detailed response. It's informative and clear enough. It's a good thing that you have evolved. I do hope you treat your people well. They are the face and heart of a data centric organisation like yours. Best wishes.

I imagined how many people's lives were dragged then due to job seeking.

It was Dragnet and Walk �force indeed.

Why you dey lie? Which salary dem wan cut now? This lie choke abeg

Dragnet in particular made me feel my certificate is a scam. It got to a point I refused going whenever I see their invites. They will keep recommending me only to see some messages like we had a lot to pull from blah blah. Don't let me talk of when there was a combo with workforce. Those people na dem suppose dey do screening for our polithiefians.

Lol but it is a good story to tell your children later in life and I'm glad to hear it all ended well.

sure

That's because you are still a baby in job hunting business...

If the company they are recruiting for pays 100k, they negotiate to pay you 60k and take 40k till the company they recruited you increase your money before your pay would be raised....


You know nothing about recruiting agency, they majorly recruit for banks, so go to their teller stand, majority of them are contract staff recruited by agency....


Sit down and learn instead of reasoning like a baby, no be everybody be unah mate for NL

12 years now wey I don graduate....

I don't know whether they exist or not but one thing damn sure of is that e no go better for them those motherfuckers made me doubt myself for the first time in my life I actually failed an exam I was really down till I wrote other exams and passed with flying colors

flexyrule:
SHL, Workforce, Dragnet, etc practiced and took those tests till writing their exams became like practicing past questions

ExxonMobil, Total, NLNG, NBC, NB, etc Name it.... I was just a regular....

The only hurdle that was difficult to cross was the Interviews. I was just 21 with no work experience.

Very fine memories.

I used to chew GMATS then like sugarcane.

In all, thank God for where I am today. Very soon, we'll own a bank!

how were u able to do it bro? Is that you don't do the calculations because you already know the answers? Please throw more light... because I come to a conclusion that dragnet test in unpassable

I was transferred to workforce office to write my ACT TEST. Na wa ọ, I declined.

nuel000:

Constant practice from a very very very wide range of test materials.
They do repeat plenty of those questions.

NewFolm4:
I just overlook them of recent. One lady later called me saying she's from Dragnet.

That's a good job. Don't overlook it.
1 year contract, then you get converted to a full staff.

flexyrule:

can you help with those materials? And do you wait till you're invited for tests before practicing or you just do it on a regular

That was 8 years ago. The last employment test I took was in 2016.
