@sureboya baba sorry to ask you dis...2.1 or 2.2? cos na 2.2 me get and i haven't received any mail yet
I made 2.1
Read these from the 2012 recruitment threadFor the test; basic maths, verbal, logical reasoning; analytical reasoning, and engineering questions on pressure, fluid flow( pipes) etc.I hope this helps
@Sureboya, what course and what year of grad?
@yondaimen. Tanx alot 4dat insightful info. @all, pls let's be human enof 2avoid barraging Mr. Sureboya 2many questions. 4crying out loud, d guy jst got a regret mail. Put urselves in his shoes.
I knew that its not everybody that got the questionaire that will continue. It was in the mail they sent me when i was having problem filling d qnaire.
Infact if ur cv is worthy,they said you will be called 4 d test and u will fill your qnaire at the venue
@Sammie 77; your response has just put a rest to my worry. You just hit the nail on the heard. Thanks a million. I cant just miss this opportunity.
@jah.. Dey r free to ask any question ooo. for any1 wu cares to know, studied industrial chem, graduated 2009, made 2.1 and presently working wit an oil engineering servicing company in warri. Guess I was dropped cos am not an engineering graduate.
Bt actually am not really bothered cos I av a job at hand, jst felt I cld make it wit my little oil and gas xperience. Wish u all Gudluck
@cyrax,u dont need to doubt me. U may need 2 re-read my last post again. I said i sent a mail to their h.r as a result of my inability 2 fill d qnaire and they replied me. From the content of the mail,i could deduce that its NOT everybody that got d qnaire that will be called. I will post d content here 2moro.
I am not one of those dat come here to say trash. Peace
some other people in www..com posted same info about them receiving rejection mail.
My take on this thing is that the preliminary selection would be done based on the questionnaire. Fine! Some people that applied didn't get and that's because we can't rule out errors on the part of either the applicant or the employer.
Now if an employer wants to know your course of study from a questionnaire, it means he has made up his mind on a course-based criteria. If he asks for your grade and year of graduation, it means he has a particular set of people in mind. Not all of us that applied graduated within the last 3yrs, not all of us made 1st class. I was telling a friend dis morning that if for example Halliburton wants only 1st class guys to write the test, it means that anyone who made a grade below a 1st class won't write the test despite filling the questionnaire. That's why they asked all to tick only one option per question. They have pre-determined criteria they wld use to send IV for tests, anyone who doesn't meet it at this time would get a reject mail. I can bet that they haven't checked any of the documents we attached to our applications at this stage. Only our emails and names have been put into consideration as of now. We pray to meet the criteria they want at this time.
And keep preparing for the test. This is MY own thinking!
@ctrl07: You have a point. Nice one.
@yondaimen: Pls where do I find the stuffs 4 the test?
Your thinking criterial is discouraging, why do think they would use your email and name for now?. Just allow GOD to do his Work for us!
Kenperry: They av used, not they would use. And I wonder what is discouraging in that post there. If u allow some1's post discourage u, then it's up to u my broda/sis.
@all well I got a reject mail saying I wasn't chosen for the test. I filled d questionnaire and am a Chem engr,2.2, grad d past 3 yrs and hav xperince in oil and gas. Therefore if ur called it means u gat d requirement dey need. Wish u all d best other opportunities are still coming guys.
Gentle Men/Ladies,
Ever wondered the essence of a cover letter? They wouldn't just ask us to upload a cover letter for fun. I think its the first doc they go through before they send you a questionnaire. If your cover letter is seductive enough, you receive a questionnaire. Now after the questionnaire has been sent, they now go through your cv of the pple that received the questionnaire for further drill down on your course, grade etc to determine if you will be qualified to write the test, if you meet their requirements, they will send you an invite for the test. Its a screening process! My Thoughts.
rytguy99: Clear analysis.....but look at it this way... The only new thing we didn't see while we were applying was 'Preferred Test Centre'. My point still is: If they have gone through all the attachments we put in our applications, trust me, they would have first sent reject mails to people and all they would have asked others would have been preferred test location. If they have gone through the CVs and Cover letters as you have posited, they would have as well gone thru the degree certificates and the questions in the questionnaires won't have arisen at all. That's why I am still going to maintain that Halliburton hasn't perused our applications yet. They would base their sending of test IVs based on the outcome of the questionnaire analysis (I say again- May we meet the criteria they have in mind at this time and may God favour us always). Then after the test, when they now have fewer people, they'll take out time and implement other criteria which they'll av also preset,call some people, drop some. And the process continues till Medicals and eventual onboarding. If I were in HR any company that does public advert like HalliB, this is a simple way I'll conduct recruitment (one day I will definitely). Mek God just dey help us dey go.
Again, 'MY' thots o- it is not to be quoted. Lol
If we look at the questionnaire we were sent, we would discover that it carried our names specifically which definitely means that our application has been viewed at some point by the HR team. Also, i will like to ask why wasnt every one that applied initially sent the questionnaire? why did some receive a rejection mail after being sent a questionnaire to fill? The interview has begun already! Lets continue to pray fervently to God to see us through till we all receive our employment letter.
As some of you have suggested, we should them to their criteria and hope to be among those invited for the test. I never uploaded any document when i applied but got the questionnaire. I cudn't fill it and yet to receive any rejection mail.
@cafe123 just proved my point. Those guys haven't looked at our documents yet. Can u guess how many people applied and the job just closed on 17th of Feb?
@rytguy99: An IOC advertised for a job last year and I applied. When people were called for tests including my classmates in the uni- same course, same grade, same sex, same state and everything same- were invited for tests, I didn't get IV. I called HR, quoted my application details and told her my mates were invited for test bt I didn't get IV. She admitted it was a mix-up bt nothing could be done again. Na so I no write test. So, talking about why everyone didn't get questionnaire, error on either d part of applicant or employer could be the reason.
And the questionnaire were personalised, why not? Notice it took dem time to send all as against if they were to send a generic one. Na cos na only our names and emails dey compile for this initial stage. And u also had to login to ur profile acctto access it, remember. It is programming. IT guys are good, we give it to them. The owner of facebook doesn't know you, yet facebook interacts with you as if they have studied things about u. "Welcome back rytguy99" doesn't mean they know you. Our own naijahotjobs portal always thanks you for logging in. The owner sabi u? NO!
As they keep analysing the outcome of the questionnaire, more people may get rejected. That's the truth!
It is at the later stage they would start checking cover letters, CV and the others. Even during interviews, employers tell u to bring your updated CVs because they know there may have been changes to what u earlier submitted and it would not be right to assess u based on who u were bt on who u are.
So, I still maintain my stand! More time, bros.....
That explains Ctrl07's post that they may not have view our docs. There's no point flogging this issue further, Afterall halli will invite whomever they deem fit no matter our analysis. Lets concentrate on something more profitable.If you'v not gotten any regret mail yet then your still in the race, If you have life has to go on. Whichever class you find yourself, you can still be useful to us here. Your experience with previous halli recruitment can help a number of persons here prepare for the task ahead. It is well.I rest my case.
@ctrl07 Good experience to buttress your point, I now agree with you. I pray we all be amongst the last men standing at the end of the entire selection process. Cheers1
From what I observed, our information on the system has already been auto extracted and the questionnaire was sent to compare with earlier information you submited. Any Contradicting data will warrant you getting a rejection mail. If it Corresponds, that's when the last question becomes valid. During the data extraction process, all contracdicting data are highlighted in red.
I'm so sorry, this is the wrong thread to do this but I will rather have benefit from this.

is there anybody that has gone through halli test before or is there any staff of halli to enlighten us. Thanks
a friend posted this in a website. I think it will help The APTITUDE TEST FORMAT.
HALLIBURTON is made up of different Departments
(Product Service Lines) which are somehow
independent of each other. This particular advert is
from SPERRYSUN DRILLING PSL (DIRECTIONAL DRILLERS), In this particular aptitude test, about 3 different PSL
advertised together ( CEMENTING, PRODUCTION
ENHANCEMENT AND COMPLETION which is my own PSL).
Because of the combined nature of the test,
unconfirmed hint suggests that the setting of the
questions will be handled directly by HR. In some other instances the question may be set from the PSL
involved. Anyway the test was in 3 sections, maths, logic and
English.
The questions in this post actually came out last year For the mathematics section there are 35 questions in
all. The questions are just like the GRE/GMAT
mathematics format, The questions are multiple choice
questions and are attached to this post In the Logic section there were both verbal and
mathematical logical questions.
Q which one is the odd one out in the following
sequence 361, 800, 900, 1600?
A 800 simply because all others are complete squares
i.e 19, 30 and 40 respectively You could also be given a sequence of 3 or 4numbers
and be asked to select next 2 numbers of the sequence
among the given options. I also remember a particular question where a square
was divided into 16 equal parts having given numbers
and (3 or 4) different unknown symbols representing
different numbers. You will be given a formula for the
sum of each ROW and COLUM and be told to find the
numbers the symbols represent. These are just the few of the questions there are other
similar logical questions that came out. sample
questions are are also attached to this post The high point of the logic section is actually the verbal
section which is in the format below:
Q 24 H _, _, D
A 24 HOURS IN A DAY Q 26 L _, _, A
A 26 LETTERS OF THE ALPHABET Q 7 D _, _, W
A 7 DAYS OF THE WEEK A 7 WONDERS OF THE WORLD
A 12 SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC
A 66 BOOKS OF THE BIBLE
A 52 CARDS IN A PACK (WITHOUT JOKERS)
A 13 STRIPES IN THE UNITED STATE FLAG
A 18 HOLES ON A GOLF COURSE A 39 BOOKS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT
A 5 TOES ON A FOOT
A 90 DEGREES IN A RIGHT ANGLE TRIANGLE
A 3 BLIND MICE (SEE HOW THEY RUN)
A 32 IS THE TEMPERATURE IN DEGREES FAHRENHEIT AT
WHICH WATER FREEZE
A 15 PLAYERS IN A RUGBY TEAM
A 3 WHEELS ON A TRICYLE
A 100 CENTS IN A RAND
A 11 PLAYERS IN A FOOTBALL (SOCCER) TEAM
A 12 MONTHS IN A YEAR A 13 IS UNLUCKY FOR SOME
A 8 TENTACLES ON AN OCTOPUS
A 29 DAYS IN FEBRUARY IN A LEAP YEAR
A 27 BOOKS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
A 365 DAYS IN A YEAR
A 13 LOAVES IN A BAKERS DOZEN A 52 WEEKS IN A YEAR
A 9 LIVES OF A CAT
A 60 MINUTES IN A HOUR
A 23 PAIRS OF CHROMOSOMES IN THE HUMAN BODY
A 64 SQUARES ON A CHESS BOARD
A 9 PROVINCES IN SOUTH AFRICA A 6 BALLS TO AN OVER IN CRICKET
A 1000 YEARS IN A MILLENIUM
A 15 MEN ON A DEAD MANS CHEST
A 8 BITS MAKE A BYTE The questions are about 35 in number. Although not all
the questions typed above came out but quite a
handful of these questions came out while some
question that came out are not in the pool of questions
typed above. I guess what happened is that after the
test a group of guys working together in the same company put their heads together and came out with
this package. These questions according to the test
makers separated THE SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATES FROM
THE REST. I quite agree with them as by my own
assessment this is the most difficult part of the exercise
‘cause it is pretty difficult trying to fathom out the answers to this puzzles under an ideal test situation. The last section is the English section. It was made up of
10 questions. 5 were fill in the gap questions while the
other five were sentence correction just like the maths
they are not difficult questions and the time was quite
sufficient. Like I said earlier, the stuffs above came out in the last
test, no one can tell exactly the format in which this
coming test will follow. Prior to taking the test last year
we anticipated MATHEMATIC, ENGLISH AND ADVANCE
LEVEL PHYSICS questions which used to be the HES
format in the past. In view of this, I will suggest in addition to the
information above we should all PREPARE WIDE. I will also like to warn that NEGATIVE MARKING was
equally used as a criteria in marking down candidates
during the last test as such I will advice all not to
engage in WIDE GUESSES but rather make only
EDUCATED GUESSES (i.e screen out as many wrong
options as possible before making a guess) when it is extremely necessary.
Please House, did anyone get received a mail from Halliburton this evening on the questionnare. I've filled the 1st one now I got another mail to fill same questionnaire. Am I alone on this? Please reply.
