I disagree with you, one Mole! Nigerian recruiting agencies & companies have adopted telephone formats since, so guys be prepared! I once had a telephone interview with Unilever last year. In fact, i was in a public bus when my phone rang and the interviewer told me to continue speaking that the noise will not hinder my grades and truthfully, i was called for the next stage after that. It was mostly personal & situation handling questions which lasted for about 30 minutes. Be prepared guys, anything can happen. The aim is to catch you unaware and unprepared to know the real you. It is well! God will help us all
@One Mole. You can disagree if you want but thats the steps i saw on their website when applying. I saved the page so I'll check it up and post it here. Its about 2 telephone interview self. 2 interviews, one wit a panel and the other wit the function unit leader.
@Wolenair and Taba, One Mole was spot on. I was called for the first interview with their consultants as at last year (Kimberly Ryan) but didn't make it past that stage. During my interview, they confirmed to me that the next stage will be another interview with the BAT HR guys. Infact, I'll advise everybody on this forum to start preparing the next stage cos from last year's experience, the interview invites came in the same week the test was closed.

@woleonair, u really nid to learn a lesson in manners. I would not bandy words with you on this platform or any one for that matter. 'U can disagree all u want'...isn't there a finer tune to dat? Anyways, thanks @the pulse for educating him. I rarely comment but wen I do, it's often a statement of fact!
@at all. I'm sorry if i sounded harsh, it was not intentional. I was wrong@One Mole.
@ One mole et al,pls, kindly give the house an example of those situation-type kinda questions usually asked.God bless u.we appreciate ur contributions thus far.
Yesss ooo! @thepulse, please expantiate on the questions you were asked in the interview to equip ourself. Your answer is urgently required. Thanks.
@woleonair, it's okay bro, i'm equally sorry for my response. @ifykole, the situation type questions i talked about only occurs in the structured interview stage as evident in the link @the pulse very generously provided. i would however suggest that you focused on getting past the interview with their consultants first but since u insist, i'd give out a few i cud recall.
tell us a time when you were involved in a task that failed and how you reacted to it and all.
tell us about a time you gave an opinion on a sensitive matter be it at church, in the work place
any regrets in life?
sadly, those are the few things i could recall from my experience.
hope it satiates ur desires.
@ one mole-are u an alumni of LAUTECH?
No bro, i never visited Lautech before talk more of being an alumni. must be a case of same pseudonym.
All the best guys!!!
@One mole, thanks for the info u provided. I'm sure it'll come in handy for me;) and others that'll make it to that stage.
@Others, for the first interview stage with the consultants, be prepared to answer questions about urself, ur biggest achievement so far, biggest challenge so far and what have you. All the best guys!

Just a quick tip to those waiting for their call,
They may call you two to three hours before your stipulated time to confirm if your number is okay and maybe to adjust your time too.
Goodluck people
@ Luxyangels:are they shifting the time by hours or days?
any idea on di time of questions 2 xpekt
For those yet to do yours, its just a chat, nothing related to a real interview.
They ll call some hours before time to confirm and maybe reschedule your time by hours like i said before, then when its time they call for the chat proper.
Normal questions to expect include Why Bat and some other general interview questions. Nothing you havnt been asked before.
Now this is very important because it made my interview look horrible, if you are using mtn and its terrible in your area, when they call, give them another line . I did but they didnt call me on that line and MTN messed up my interview. Imagine having cuts during the interview...Seriously i wasnt just happy about the whole thing.Felt like crying. Anyways that was how my Telephone interview went, I hope others would share their experiences here and also tell us when they recieve feedback so i would know if am still in the race cos as of this moment, i really dont know where i stand. So please reply with your experience and also when you hear from them if not this would be my last post on this issue.
Thanks and goodluck to thhose still expecting their call.
By Hours...Quote:
