On a lighter note

@ Osina, i'm sure u'r wondering wot i'm driving @?

ok,here is my angle. i enjoy being a part of ds thread tremendously & more cos it's kind of anonymous.
Much as i look 4ward 2 meeting u guys @ Edjeba, i stil av my reservations abt revealing my identity. i enjoy d dual identity. it's fun being Jisola Mar(tins) & @ d same time,d name on my certs.

Nothn mischievous , infact Jisola Mar is one & d same as me! (like Lagbaja = Bisade Ologunde ) ,same ideolgies, blivs,etc except that Jisola Mar is more talkative & makes friends so easily (i'm more reserved!)

Dont u wonder that we wont enjoy Lagbaja as much again if he removes hs mask in hs next album? & says: here,guys ds is me

i c, Osina & Opensesame r in different cities. So,till Edjeba then

@ Osina & Opensesame ,r u both in PH?

@Osina, wot date is ur letter (yday or 2day?) .just want 2 know whn ds 2nd batch of letters were dspatched. i gues d 1st batch started being dspatched last wk tuesday.

i agree that its in batches(so we can al be calm) cos even tho i got my letter last wk tues,my med is on d 21st

Bro,
go 2 Zenith.beta training & job security.they pay 75K/month for one yr.then u get an upfront of abt N2.4m @ the beginning of ur 2nd yr on confirmation totals N3.3m altogether!
inter offers a beta startn pay @ 1st but then u can be thrown out anytime(no job security there).their trainings r not also as std as zenith's.
a word is enuf 4 d wise.

hi
u can keep hoping.
I'm yet 2 hear from then too. neither has my friends.

pls au do i submit my CV 2 Nestle? i av tried d online method 2 no avail.

pls someone, reply!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no, i don't think so.
just keep praying.

It's high time we realised dt men of God r MEN not GOD! hence they can also make mistakes.in as much as they r good as mentors & spiritually leaders, they shld not be our standards.

Pastor Oyedepo must av made dt statement in a fury.J esus cursed d fig tree not humans! Our only standard should be the Bible which clearly states to bless our enemies.au do u intend to witness 2 someone u av been cursing?

abeg, leave d God of d man 2 judge him!!!!!!!!!!!

First try get GMAT 2008 edition,GRE & begin 2 study it ahead even when u do not av any invitation 4 a test. this keep u mentally alert even when u're not studying specifics.

ask people who av done these tests before so u know d specifics u need 2 study.these forum helps in that regards.

there r diverse of tests:broadly classified into verbal reasonings,numeric reasoning, psychometric, skills(u respective disciplines),etc. d list seems endless!each of these broad headings can also b subdivided as u'll find out in GMAT.
these tips av worked 4 me. i op it does u.

i finished NYSC ds February too & since then av done 6 tests.i passed 4. Not because i'm so good but av always learnt 2 work smart & get relevant info regarding d tests b4 going for em! i ad 2 offers of employment.i ad to decline one while i presently work @ d other.I'm still waiting 4 my interview date for the 3rd one while d 4th one sent a reply that i wasn't successful after d interview.i eagerly wait for d last two results on my knees(one of 'em is my dream job!).

all d best.

Hallo aus,
as anyone heard from exxonmobil yet? i wrote my test on the 30th of june & was told that we'll be contacted in 4 weeks. its 4 weeks already. i'm waiting prayerfully.

abeg when una apply 4 ds nlng job & when was d 1st test written?
i dey interested 4 a next batch.

no ideal age really but a lady can marry if she is about 21 & above & she is ready spiritually,physically,psychologically & financially(it's not really good 2 depend solely on ur husband).find s/thn 2 do evn if it's just selln thns.u can marry whle watn(as in hustling 4 a job too).
all d best!!!!!!!

hi guys,
i av got schlumberger interview soon. does anybody know wot to expect? i know of the 5 mins powerpoint presentation of oneself.wot other things r involved? how long will d interview 'session' last?
any idea on their job conditions 4 ladies as in gettn married & gettn pregnant? i'm 28 & wil be gettn married in November by God's grace.

Hi guys,
i feel so sad reading this.Pls be careful whn u go 4 ur interviews or is it called fitness test?u dont av 2 put ur life on d line.only d living can look 4 jobs!!!May his soul rest in peace.

also hear dt bank phb is d higest paid bt disagree wit inter & oceanic.

for starters ,i heard dt bank phb pays 3.3m/annum.
Insider info:i know dt oceanic pays 85k for d 1st six months(lower if u are on PT2),subsequently abt N170K/month.inter pays 2.5m/annum while ecobank pays 2.6m/annum(makn inter & oceanic come behind ecobank).
i dont av any authentic info abt gtbank & uba.

gud luck.

i understand operations in banking to mean cash and tellering(where u r on d counter payn & receivn cash frm customers),funds transfer(post transactions mainly salaries) & customer service while retail banking may be pure marketing(soliciting 4 accts frm d public & mobilizatn of deposits).

most corpers chuse 2 serve in bank(even when they can do s/thn beta wit their lives & d pay ,too!) cos they often retain em.wit ur qualifications u can gt a better(more fulfilling & less time demanding)job after nysc.

so my advice is ds.chuse d schl.pls impact those young lives & further develop urself careerwise.u can evn begin 2 apply 4 jobs durn nysc.i'm sure ur efforts wil nt b wasted.

al d best.
