GT- ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING I was interviewed ON the 2nd. "Young man, you look like a footballer" was the first statement from one of the panelists. As if he was waiting to hear me say yes, he continued; your country was defeated by Algeria. With a smile on my face, I replied; our team was defeated. That led to further conversation after which I was asked to settle down for the real interview... LOL. Who is.... my full name... ? After giving them a very brief answer, I was asked about the Nigerian Electricity structure and where/why we are facing challanges and how to fix these problems. The next question was on safety: your CV shows that you are always on the field. Are there some safety measures you usually observe? They even helped me as I tried to talk about some of these safety measures. Your CV says u are hardworking, what does it mean to be hardworking? I made reference to some volunteer jobs I did in order to achieve my goals. I was then asked to talk briefly on any formal report I've done and finally, to tell them why I wanted to work with the NNPC. Deep inside I know I didn't perform the way I would on a very good day. But grace makes me very optimistic. AUGUST IS COMING Like if you Rep the FCT 9 Likes 1 Share |

I was among the millions who successfully submitted application when the portal was first opened. Luckily, I was among the 60k invited for the test. As a nairaland indigen, I quickly find and joined the trend to gather all necessary info. Just as I did when I was seeking admission into the University, when I wanted to go for NYSC and almost everything I want to do that needed interactions.. Thanks to those who shared multitudes of past questions and answers here. I read everything like never before and funny enough, I went to the exam center with GMAT 2007. My test was scheduled at 10am, and I got to the center before 8am. I had enough time to go through the GMAT while in my car till 10am. Unfortunately, nothing like GMAT came out in the test. I was pissed off when the simple and compound interest questions I was so sure of had no correct answers. I had to choose the nearest answers. When did Nig joined OPEC, I wrongly chose 1972, the guy beside me who had made several effort to cheat, saw my answer and corrected me. He seemed to be so sure about it. So I reluctantly changed my answer to 1971. He later asked for 4 answers in place of the one he told me. As an Accounting student, I was familiar with all the history and the Mathematics questions, so I did my best and left the exam hall. My Interview Experience It was the best interview I ever had. Even though I used days to study NNPC and its subsidiaries, my prayer point was for the panel to only ask me questions I know best and can remember. I was interviewed by panel 8 on July 2nd. After the panel chairman offered me a seat, one of the panel members immediately asked for the meaning of my name and I replied [b][/b]Goodluck. Mine is an Islamic name... they are all Christians (according to their names). So I understand why he asked. My interview questions were four or five questions on accounting ( I knew everything like every accounting graduate would do.). Followed by a two questions about my consultancy firm. Why did I registered a company with such a funny name? What motivated us to do such a great job and what are the challenges we face and how we solved them. One safety question, then they asked me to share an experience about my trying time with them. I did, and I also asked them a question which the chairman answered. I asked if we will learn on the job or there is any training school for Accounting and management GT. Then they wished me a safe trip back home. I NEVER RECEIVE ALERT ( I de expect ham since sha)... Its been prayer session ever since then, not only me oooOOoo. The whole family and village people are supporting me. Everyday, my Mum will call from the village to ask if they've called me? The answer is No. She will say, Insha Allah, you will be among the successful ones. We are praying on it.... All the best to everyone. 42 Likes 1 Share |

Goldwatch:. Same thing here. I think it's the same panel because they interviewed me and two other guys (marine transport and something economics). I studied Fisheries and Aquaculture. After being asked to introduce myself in 2 minutes, the next questions were from marketing (Define marketing in your terms, List 7 Ps of marketing and how's marketing related to NNPC operations). Then came the situational, behavioural and HSE questions. I don't know why they never asked me anything in my field or what I can offer to NNPC.. In all, God's grace will speak for us.. PS: Did you take note of the Panel no? |

Wow! I came online tonight and was pleased to see that there were no BP-oscillating theories. I guess the photo I shared earlier probably inspired us to worry not. With your permission, your potential NNPC GT Geologist would love to share his own experience. (Read & be inspired) N/B Watch Out for the theme Honesty & Trust in God oya here we go I think I was one of last persons to apply on the portal because that 'passport upload' really stressed me until a faithful day when my edited selfie was successfully uploaded and hit 'Apply. I studied Dragnet plus nnpc study pack and was tired especially when I heard the number of candidates who applied . It became worse when I was 'cramin' current affairs. I prayed to God to take away spirit of error during the test and so it was that after answering question 60, i went thru again backwards and corrected about 15qstns I initially thought I got correctly. Interview Day Outspoken guy like me found myself so tensed up inside, calm outwardly but shaking inside. I read a scripture that morning (Luk.12:12) and believed it. (Do not worry about what to say , for in that Hour , the Holy spirit will teach you what to say). Interview: 8th, Room 25, Panel 22 10th floor. I was the first on the list and the other colleagues were mostly engineers. While we settled down on the seat in front of the room, our usher had gone in to submit our files...I could feel the panel drilling a guy I became tensed again lol. Ffw The panel secretary came out to ease our tensions while the guy who was being drilled was sweating and preparing to leave. After Her briefing, she beckoned on me to follow her inside (as first man ). Then I met what I would describe as the best panel anyone would have prayed to meet with. 5 Senior men( 2yorubas, 1Northern, 1Ijaw & 1Igbo(chairmo) , the sec.was the only female (Yoruba). The chairman asked me to drop my files and unbutton my suit jacket to ease off all tensions. I did that smiling. They introduced themselves and asked that I do same. While I was at it, the Chairman & a few others probed to know my part of Abia state.. teased me, 'yabbed' me, we laughed for a while..and then He asked the Geologist to pause while the safety start with me. *What is an unsafe act. (I answered). Mention 5(strictly 5) unsafe acts on the highway. (I mentioned 3, they waited...I mentioned 2 more (In my mind: so una no fit forget the 2 for me? ) *Geology. What is Migration( I answered). Mention the types of Migration (I answered and defined them). Why do reservoir rocks hold HC? (Me: due to their good porosity & perm. Chairman & Geologist: yeah we know...but...(I payed attention to their body languages) then I said due to The presence of Traps... everyone was happy in the room, including the sec. ) *Personals. Tell us a time when you had a set back in life.(I thought hard and answered) *Tell us of a time when you managed a situation under pressure. (Wait for it!) Me: I described a situation Where I led a team to rep ma department/sch in a competition at Ilorin under a short notice. We stayed up all night to study & rehearse for the presentation. Then I quickly added: We didn't win the competition but we were happy we did well & our lecturers were proud of us. The Humbling part: The Geologist said to me, "You're correct. Do you know I was present there at Ilorin (2016). Me "what if I had lied that my team won". Ffw: I got a chance to ask a question. I asked what NNPC was doing to cut down CO2 emissions during E&P. The northern panelist explained in details. The Panel Chairman teased me further, bout my people, their doings...we laughed for a while more. Then I was free to go. The sec. gave me my phone and smiled at me. I left the room knowing God was truly on my matter. I'd be delighted to connect with lots of you guys come September . Cheers. 18 Likes |

My CBT experience - 8am time. The crowd was discouraging over here in Kaduna. But I moved on, joined the queue, and took my place in the hall. In 30 minutes, I was done except for the mathematics questions which I had to settle down to redo. I tried to ‘giraffe’, only to find out that my neighbour’s questions were not just rearranged, but the options were interchanged as well. That was when I knew this NNPC and Jamb people meant business. Well, I did my best, and my lucky guess on the question on the date of Nigerian Civil War paid off. When I was done, I waited till the last second before clicking submit; they don’t award prize for ‘first to finish’. After leaving the hall, some questions I know I failed are as follows: how many Nigerian protectorates in 1914(I chose 3 instead of 2), activities of petroleum upstream and down stream sectors(I ‘banged’ that as well), and other funny verbal(interpretation) questions. But I think I was good to get 50 out of the 60 questions correctly. My Interview Experience, 2nd July. The 4 of us called out from the amphitheater were all in the same field and from Kaduna also. By the way, I’m in the medical sector. My interview was the shortest when compared to those that went before me. When it was my turn, I was ushered into the room. I asked, ‘can I sit?’ They gave me the go-ahead. Then I sat majestically. Even though I’m an EH applicant, my CV, being very concise and compressed, was 2 pages, printed on front and back of one leaf, with my references even taking half of the 2nd page. I can imagine the expression on their faces when just a sheet of paper was shared to each of them before I entered. . I didn’t have time to redo another CV. My thinking is ‘who go get job go get job’. After introducing themselves, the centre man asked, ‘We’ve gone through your CV, so tell us about yourself’. As a smooth talker, I introduced myself, and then I talked about my education and work experience. That was the only part of the interview that was smooth. Thereafter, the first question was related to my field, which I tried my best to answer, but the lady who asked the question added to my answer, and I nodded in approval. The other parts of the interview were bloody. In fact, I lost 3 pints of blood after their questioning. I never expected ‘Give me 4 advantages of renewable energy’ as a question, me being able to give only two. I can’t say if me telling them, that the 2 advantages I had mentioned were the only points I could remember, helped my course. My answer to questions on work hazards were not wholly accepted. Even my answer to a question on how I ‘handled a misunderstanding with my boss in the past’ didn’t seem to impress them probably because my answers were quite short and straight to the point. It was as if they wanted me to be a story teller. But I wasn’t going to budge or else I spewed rubbish. The centre man looked at me, and he said, ‘Sorry for keeping you till this time[the interview held 5 hours later than scheduled time]. Do you have any question?’ I replied ‘no’, and I thanked them. Now I wished I had asked them a question in a bid to impress them more than I did, if at all questions can add to one’s performance. I walked out in a somber mood, but all I know is that many factors come into play during such recruitments: factors like my CBT scores, my dressing, my confidence and composure, my state of origin my discipline, et cetera. So, I ain’t losing hope until there is nothing else left to hope on. 12 Likes |
