My heart syill skips a beat whenever I recall my interview encounter. The first question threw me off balance the way you feel when you are scored an early goal in a football final. I still have shivers. The chief panelist just held up his book of riddles and asked me one as if we had a personal grudge. I was like " oga, haba mana, youre supposed to ask me to tell you about myself now? this is not how star do!".
Anyways i never really recovered and the interview was over before it started. just 5 minutes or so! I have moved on anyways, but the little faith in me tells me to hang on by a thread: the race is never always to the swift. On the brighter side. I dressed as required, got my HSE and behavioural and situational questions. Lets just wait for August .

All the best guys

did you receive alert?

Clean Development mechanism

Centre on reduction of carbon emission so as to control global warming

Stake holders are involved with this vision with NNPC including SPDC

TOSINIFE:
What's CDM?

adamx23:

Seriously... It was the first time I was hearing of it..

You were caught off guard!

Just one lady

monlawal:
They were two ladies in the panel

Chester7:
did you receive alert?

I was eagerly waiting for someone to pose this question to one of the testifiers you didn't disappoint me

Please what can you guys deduce from a scenario like this.
I was asked a behavioral/ situational question
"a personal goal I had and how I achieved it."
My first answer was about my drive to develop my ICT skills outside the normal curricular in my course. So I had to go for certification in advanced Computer networking
The chief panelist didn't accept this answer on the basis that it is a requirement for my field.
I regrouped sharply and said something about something I did to Impact in the community where I did my PPA during Nysc, but they rejected this again, insisting it must be something I did for myself and obviously not related to my course.
Finally I told them a story about how I went about buying my first laptop computer and they were interested in how I made the money.
This the panel chief accepted and we proccedded.
Meanwhile I wasn't coming up with these answers in split seconds as I have to travel down Memory Lane and also do some fine tuning in my mind.

Another thing was on a similar question on " a situation where I have to take a quick decision "
This one actually took me a lot of time up to the extent that the chief asked them to skip the question and they asked me something on safety which I answered comfortably. The chief also returned back to the question insisting that I "must " answer it. I then came up with something that happened between me and my project supervisor during my project days in school. The panel chief made this remark
" you got it, "but" why did it took so long for you to say it "
My fear anytime I recall the experience is if the delays will have effect on my score hand how much of an effect it will have on it.

Meanwhile I didn't have any problem with my field related questions.

This is also for posterity... That's why I took the time to type all these.

You still didn't give me a reason why you think question on that was dangerous

KISS

NNPC is on God factor

Point to note the major player in the panelist is not d chief panelist but is d typist that guy input has along way to go

He can represent 70 as 7 with d excuse of typing error so we all should just b praying

ChasteGhuy:


You were caught off guard!

Panel 4 is Commercial and Investment Directorate, I think. Were you interviewed with panel 4 or 6?

gbenga44:

I thought Panel 4 was for commercial, marketing/ sales!

darado:

Mine was panel 6. Though not commercial. The panelists used to be exited with right answers. They didnt hide their feelings on wrong answers. There were testimonies with our squad.

Was that the panel that asked difference between NOC and IOC, clauses in a gas sales agreement etc? For guys that did on 5th though.

This sounds like the panel that interviewed me. It was two ladies that took me up for the interview. The one that accompanied me into the room and sat behind was also a lady (she was a really dark lady)

I once had an interview with one of the new owners of the split Gencos.

The panel was made up of many of those old staff of PHCN that the new owner inherited when they bought the company, they were asking such basic interview questions and everyone of them was just nodding at my answers like I was Obama delivering a State of the Union speech.

My liver was so shook after d interview that I reached out 2 my big cousin who is a snr manager in the same Genco, after d interview 2 tell him I was interviewed for an Asst. Mgr position and I wasn't sure of my performance cos the questions were sooooo cheap. He spoke with their HR mgr and found out I was one of the best performers. I still couldn't bliv until I saw their offer letter.

Sometimes, when u feel the questions are cheap, they are really cheap. Especially when u are interviewed by civil servants who have little or no professional skills/experience with conducting interviews.

Not in a case where a lot have to be weeded out.
