APL issuance no specific date yet.

Induction will happen after you have reported to your posted department/office

You are required to finish your documentation first.

Hello everyone,

I left NL but was lowkey still in your lives somehow...LOL i read here sometimes and been on the watsapp grp as well.

First of all, I'm not here to water down anyone's views or debate about anything. I have read posts over the weekend and been keeping up and heres my take and what i know...
The reason we were asked to come for interview with original copies of documents and were 1st accredited before having a one on one with the interviewer is for the sole aim of matching what you say you have to your application as well as be interviewed based on it.
The moment the interviewers marked you, their scores where uploaded on the laptop in front of them immediately. GT had points for masters and additional certification but if employed they are employing you solely based on your 1st degree and as such will be placed on level 8(you can confirm this when you receive your APL). I'm saying all these to let you know the marks uploaded is then auto added to test scores and average is the only biz DPR has with you from then on( everything is over to COMPUTER) Over 4k ppl were interviewed so nobody will be checking your 1st degree/wat you applied for to give you APL (all that was the judgement of your interviewer's scoring. They won't score you well if they believe your degree does not match the role you applied for). Everything after interview was based on cross referencing scores against Federal xter policies(computer work i.e snapnet e.g top 5 scores in delta state etc). A whole lot of people had above 80% average so trust me when i say the competition was very stiff. 70% will take the grace of God unless your state ppl had lower average.
Western states LOL I'm sure yu guys are like competing on 90% average sef( kidding o)
No one, i repeat no one has been contacted yet. They have everything they want from you if not in your portal, they got it from you at interview.
Now to the issue of COC. To the best of my knowledge, COC has been issued, i realise people who have contacts at FCC are not aware of this and i can only assume there's also politics in FCC like every other coy. I believ even the committee assigned may not have had a formal deliberation on it i.e they may not have even set their eyes on the list but the COC has been issued. You need to know the list will not even reach FCC if the chairman's list had not be satisfied (be honest with yourself, he def had his own candidates too which will be a list that will also include candidates of those working around him too).
You don't have to agree with me pls. I'm only sharing what i know. I believe letters are being typed already and i will know more once work resumes back. Shakur travelled early last week for the muslim hols but i kno he had a group of people working on it and honestly nothing can happen unless he returns after the holidays (sad but true)
All is def completed on FCC part, DPR already sorted level placements of EH once the COC was issued, its all left to them to get the APLs ready and contact successfuls. I'm hopeful we would hear from them this month.
Pls i don't share what i don't hear directly from the source which is why i don't mention dates unless i hear an affirmative date.

All I've typed is all i know for now(pls don't flood my email, pls don't bombard me with questions) I will get back once i hear anything new after work resumes. No, i don't know if my name is on the list (LOL)
Stop worrying about local govt, merit, etc. If its yours, no one can take it from you. Afterall there is nothing you can do anymore aside hope for the best.

Also, its same tamihawtt, i contacted HRtechnique, Acmillan(you never replied) and StanUC yest!

I wish y'all the best! But you people should go on holiday na! Lol

I believe Marvel64. I noticed a little change in my portable between end of March and May.

I'm tired of any permution and combination, let them just call successful candidates so that we can rest.

Talking about average score, a candidate with 50% can still get the job by divine grace especially if other candidates from his state did not do well.

#God's mercy and grace

Position: Geophysics

1. Let’s assume 40 candidates participated in the interview for the above position are from IMO, RIVERS, BAYELSA.

2. Assume available vacancies for the position is 10.

3. Assume IMO , RIVERS , BAYELSA have 7, 10 and 12 slots respectively.

4. Now Among the 40 candidates, weed out those with course of study not relating to the position applied.

5. Use what is left to check if they came out tops in their respective states. i.e among the top 7 in Imo, 10 in Rivers and 12 in Bayelsa. Weed out the rest that don’t meet this requirement.

6. If there’s are two or more people from the same LGA in the individual states pick the best among them.

7. If at the end of the day you are left with 20 candidates. Pick the best 10 using their average score to fill the vacancy for the Geophysics position.

I hope this helps.

AIZubair:

The way you weeding people out sha

Marvel64:
Good morning guys,

Let me make this clear

The Candidates that are competing for a particular position must be among the best in their respectives states.

It’s one thing to be among the best in your state, it’s another to be selected as one of the best for the position applied for.

Have a nice day!

Bluemalam:


Good morning.

I was wondering if there are HR departments/personnel in all DPR offices nationwide, or if the function is only in existence at the HQ in Lagos?

Thanks.

pedroito:
How can one gauge how others with different course of study were rated owing to the fact that we were interviewed by different interviewers with different parameters and judgement of ratings.

Did DPR make it fair that they were standards in place for rating or grading and not basically subjective judgement.

@Marvel, please respond.

Marvel64:


Prior to the intervew start date, the interviewers were trained for the assessment of candidates. They were told what to look out for and how it will be graded on the computer system and not a subjective judgement.

Thanks so much

Marvel64:


All field and zonal offices have corporate services division.

dprpikin:


The point is, even when there are standard indices for rating individual performances, there is no standard perception index for the individual panelists. Hence, there is a high probability of discrepancy( no matter how little) in scoring an individual's performance before two or more different panels.

An individual's performance rating is subject to the perception of the panel assessing him, irrespective of the set criteria.

Hello Engineer
You didn't lose 6 mark but rather 1 mark as GT

There's a total points for everyone is allowed to reach, The points/mark has a limit let's say 10 for you to pass your interview.

Example of Points break as follows:

Only B.Sc is 5 points
B.Sc.+M.Sc is 6 points
B.Sc + PhD is 7 points
Dressing + composure 1 point
Answer to Technical question 1 point
Answer to current affairs 1 point
Readiness (coming with your pen) 0.5 point
Professional qualification 0.5 point

jidex4life:
if the OND guys were asked complete 50 questions in their exam and we graduate trainee and experienced hire were asked 45 questions and knowing fully well that DPR had banks of questions to set 50 questions for us then why 45 questions. In my own opinion am thinking the CBT test is 45*2= 90 points and interview score is 10 points making a total of 100 points

I now see that the selection process will be very stressful.
What happens if a candidate who applied for petroleum engineering position with 60% but he happens to be the best from his state. However, many other candidates from othe state who applied for this position did better than him?

Marvel64:


Firstly, the other candidates that did better than the candidate with 60% have to be among the best in their respective states.
When that is confirmed I.e if all or most of them were among the best in their states, they can now compete for the Petroleum Engineering position.

herlecks:
See analysis when they can find something better to do with their time.

frobeinus:
. if here is silent ppl like u will still talk nw is charged up with brainstorming and positive contributions yet its a problem to u, if u have anything useful doing u won't b here making unnecessary comment. my advise? plz face front with ur busy schedule and leave this thread a lone to serve it purpose.

Marvel64:


Each candidates profile had a specific number of questions and answers provided to guide the interviewer. If you don’t get the questions right or don’t answer at all, you will loose points. They were trained so the interview sessions would be more interactive and dramatic. That explains why DPR didn’t use a single panel to assess 3000+. The interviewers knew what they were looking out for.

So even if you are the best from your state you may not get the job?

If that is the case then some states may not have candidates on merit.

Marvel64:


Example

Lets assume there are nine slots allocated to Ekiti state. From the pool of candidates, nine were selected as the best from the state.

Assuming only 3 out of the nine candidates from Ekiti couldn’t compete for positions with others from their respective states confirmed to be amongst the highest. The 3 slots will vacant and given to stakeholders.
Therefore only 6 from Ekiti state made it on merit.

Onyiridike:


So the competition cuts across state?

Well nobody should boast, only God can make this work for our favour.
