Wow. Sub-surface? @OTEGA1 i thought calls had only been made for construction and marine engineer roles. Oh well, we'd try again. All the best @OTEGA1. Were your questions HR based or pure technical |

Feex:info info but yet ignorance obviously. A security man cannot give out that info. It will be very unprofessional of him. Google expatriates. White men don’t come as security personnel because they do not have enough intelligence on the security of the nation. Except you are talking CIA or FBI. Did you write the experienced hire. The white men are part of the recruitment team and whatever info they give is true. 2 to 4 weeks may be the time for completion of the recruitment. It is obvious Mobil don’t want to waste time. Don’t Honk you have any concrete info. This is a recruitment handled by top level staff and privacy and confidentiality is key. Do you think the white nan didn’t know they will be contacted before 2 weeks. Make una chill small make over Sani no kill una. 4 Likes |

mos4phy:are you the one that determines the suitability of the test you are given. What kind are you looking out for? You want to set the question yourself? Are you are recruitment consultant? Dragnet is known to have conducted test for many firms in Nigeria- multinational and indigenous. Do you think the management of these companies and the HR department of these companies don’t know what they are doing? You guys need to learn many things. Stop complaining and go prepare for the next one. 2 Likes |

If you get an interview invite for graduate engineer position, Please kindly inform us on this group. I wonder why ppl want to kill themselves on top Dragnet's questions whether it was repeated or not. Medicine after death won't solve anything. Dragnet did its job period. There are answers to the questions asked and they want someone with an high IQ to solve them as quickly as possible. Just pray the odds favor you. To be honest with you anybody can be hired for the graduate engineer position as long as you are qualified and you will undergo the necessary training to be competent. There is no excuse for failure. We just have to keep trying our best. ExxonMobil maybe jackpot to most of us here but the real jackpot is from God. Keep believing in God (Allah) and don't give up. 16 Likes 1 Share |

souljar:@ first bolded, the fact that a Joe has written the test a number of times makes him experienced in writing test, this means his skills has improved. Go on SHL you will see where they mentioned practice and practice. Again, writing tests at different times proves you are aiming at success. It’s a skill sought for. I told tell “geniuses” if you university can’t refer you for an enployement then learn with the regular joe you find hustling for jobs. The geniuses I know got referred to employers by their universities. @ second bolded, there will always be jobseekers and the situation in Nigeria isn’t encouraging. May I ask? Why didn’t you shun the job ad and face your business. Relax and chill. There is a system and a process not everyone is interested in running a business. @ third and fourth bolded, even if you do the test on your bed, some of you will still find excuses. I remember many criticizing Shell and asking what does she’ll want after they failed at the online assessment. & fifth bolded, Mobil already has a relationship with dragnet. They don’t know you. If you cannot respect dragnet that has a relationship with Mobil, how then will you respect the process in Mobil when you are employed as a “trainee”. The companies that have their own platform have a “global trainee program” this means graduates come in periodically over the globe at the same time. I believe Mobil has same but I am not sure it is applicable to Nigeria. @ last bolded what are you bringing to light? What was wrong with the t st really? Co-ordination or what? I would think There are CCTV cameras around the Centre. Dragnet won’t be silly not to behave. Whatever rants and behavior all over the media is what is typical of a Nigerian graduate. The oversabi and inability to learn and be taught by them. 3 Likes |

Re: Graduate Engineer & Other Engineering Roles At ExxonMobil by Fremaxx: 10:38am On Feb 07, 2019 |
I totally agree with you. People need to understand that we are not in control of the recruitment process so we can't determine the type, the pattern of the questions or the time allocated to the questions to be set. I didn't do well in the most of the sections and when I look back, there was nothing I could do better than that. I tried my best and I am just praying for the odds to favor me. And if it doesn't, I know that I have another path to take. So start accepting your fate and move on COOLCATS: 4 Likes |

mos4phy:Mobil recruits graduate engineer in other countries on a rolling basis. you have mentioned the reason, " due to high volume". They want to give each and every one of you a chance. Do you know what plagued the oil industry in the last 5 years. Multinational service companies are hiring but it is secretly, in house things. This means if you don't know someone who is able to submit your CV, you can't even write a test. Mobil could have decided to make this recruitment in house. if they did, will you be here complaining? now they have put everyone on the same level, you are still complaining. Why would you say dragnet is not suitable? what are your reasons? Dragnet are is a hiring and recruitment consulting company... why are they not suitable for this. You will defend your skills at subsequent stages, you will do what other guys in other countries are doing in the stages to come! 1 Like |

Re: Graduate Engineer & Other Engineering Roles At ExxonMobil by Tsound007: 11:52am On Feb 07, 2019 |
Well, I didn't want to speak concerning the suitability of the test but at this point, let me just say this. The test was not fair enough for the purpose it was meant to serve. I can boldly say that if you put dragnet boss on that room to take the test, he will perform even poorly. Let me break down my points here. 1. The verbal timing was very inappropriate for the test. For instance, we were given 20 questions to answer within 17minutes. In each question, we were expected to find two correct answers in it. This means you have about 20-25secs to find a correct answer which are not following each other in the passage. Even TOEFL don't administer their reading test like that. 2. The numerical reasoning was also not good enough, not because the questions were difficult, but because the timing was also poor. For instance, this is not a paper test where you have all the questions facing you. What I'm trying to say is that the distance from the table or chart to the questions which requires scrolling down was not fair. When you read the chart, you scroll down to see the question, you take few seconds to understand the question, then you scroll up again to correlate the question with the chart or table and you have to do this for all the questions. Remember you were given just 1 minute to go through all this unnecessary time consuming processes. 3. The verbal was out of the game. For instance, when you take some test even with PwC, you will see some practice test just for you to understand how the questions goes, until you are done practicing, you can now start taking your test. This is what is expected when you want to test the best brains to get the best out of them. You don't set questions where the past questions are not available and you made it so blurred and very difficult without a practice test for as many that would want to understand it. 4. The skill test was fair enough for people who revised their undergraduate courses very well. If your lecturers in school come to the exam hall with questions he never taught in the classroom and without any available past questions to the questions, how will you feel? Please note that I am not saying all these to say that dragnet didn't do well or not, but what I'm saying is that they can improve on the mode of operations and administration of test.

The country is so laden with people who see a problem and shrug and be like, well, it is not the first instance of the problem, so it cannot be a problem at all, and there's no need for redress. So you guys can go ahead and proliferate debatable info to sandbag the excesses. @poeticjustice, you're neither the first nor last who'ld write dragnet test and pass the first time; it is immaterial. And @coolcat, you guys have presumed sooo much...and thriving on this lot of ignorance can be really brutal; I know really smart people who were not referred by their schools to anywhere... Look I'm really tired of saying the same thing so you guys can keep missing it as basic as it is, imposing your opinions (much of which I've seen evidence to the contrary!) because you're too advanced and oversabi isn't your problem. Wow. Everybody can learn from anybody. Time will prove everything. Pls let us return to our duty posts, I'm reeaally tired. 1 Like |

mos4phy:stop showing your ignorance and get some real work experience. If you were at Mobil HQ, you will understand that there is a process and a reason why Mobil is using Dragnet for the first stage of this Graduate application. Are you saying the HR Director with over 20 years experience and other top level guys don't actually know what they are doing. Dragnet conducted the 2012 graduate recruitment, have you bothered to ask yourself why they are still using dragnet. Do you think this recruitment was made open by some graduate trainee? Go back to Texas and ask the right questions. you will understand that every global process is subject to local terms and conditions. 1 Like |

souljar:seriously, I am yet to understand what your rant is about. The difficulty, the co-ordination or the acclaimed leak test. I am yet to figure out what the problem of this test is and how it relates to the situation in Nigeria. You are mentioned Joe and Genius like you are better than the crowd that came to write the exam. Genuises don't complain over things they have no power over and I want you to learn as fast as possible. I wouldn't want you to keep complaining. I was once in your shoes. I kept complaining and the more I do, the more I see people get these juicy jobs and offer. The earlier you realise these complains are selfish and does not actually reflect the true situations of things, the better for you. 4 Likes 1 Share |
