I saw a job post online for the position of an ICT Engineer in a firm called EXCEL LIFESTYLE. Since i haven't heard about the firm before, i decided to Google it, to my surprise i found nothing about them. Irrespective of that fact, i decided to go ahead and apply for the post. About 10 minutes after i applied, i got an invite telling me to come today(14/10/2015) by 8am for an oral assessment(i come be like God don answer my prayer today).

Fast forward to today, i woke up by 5am, did my devotion, had my bath and started rushing down to the venue(it was like an hour from my end). Got there by exactly 7:45am.

On getting there, the surrounding looked suspicious (all this old secretariat building that have been abandoned for years, very unkempt). I felt more relaxed when i met others coming for the interview. We were about 50 in number.

On being the first person to arrive, i was interviewed first by the supposed HR manager, she had this strict attitude. She asked me about my career objective on my cv, i paraphrased it and she was like i should give it to her word to word. Kindly said i couldn't. She asked some other questions and i gladly answered and that was it. She then said i should switch off my phone and not talk to anyone and wait for stage 2.

NOW THE MAIN GIST =>After everyone was interviewed by the woman, one guy (who claims to be a staff) came to lecture us for about 4 hours (at this point i was feeling very suspicious, because i have never seen this kind of lecture at an interview before). They even played videos for us on a projector.

In summary, after all the lecture (but i must confess, the dude is a smooth/sweet talker), the guy was like any one who is interested in being a public speaker like him should pay N6000. If your not interested go home. That was the end of the screening exercise.

Am a graduate, done with service. Currently work at a radio station as an ICT Engineer(Intern). Had to take permission from my boss to go face this crap!!.. God save this country.

This reminds me of those annoying GNLD guys. Job seekers have really suffered.

God help us

Lmao...Public speaker wey never start to dey make money himself wan teach un how to become public speaker. Abeg, wetin dat one go useful for? To toast woman abi wetin? I no just understand o.

Op. Na u wan stress ursef o. As n ICT person, u say u google the company so tey u no see am anywhere and u still get strong head say u dey go do d interview.

Such is life
Better luck next time

lol

This is just one of the reasons I never use all those job seeking sites. They promote scam jobs so much or d type of job ur employer will feel like u r his slave and dat he is doing you a favor by employing u so lick his feet. Any direct job advert you get from those stuupid sites without a link to the company's site from there, just forget it and such direct job advert with quick interview message is a scam. You can't apply for a job in a well recognized company and receive interview message less than a week or two weeks even. The best thing is to get list of all popular companies you can get, register at their career site and keep up to know when there is any vacancy or meet people to keep you inform if there is opening for recruitment in their place of work. If na only me, I swear all those stuupid site like jobberman, ngcareer and d rest for don close down a long time ago because dey are feeding on pple's desperation for jobs.

Hnnn

tough

Laughing!
Another way of extorting people.
PMB, hear the voice of the jobless gradautes.

Reading I dey come, you get luck say u come out alive na Godwin things.
