Even if you are Wole Soyinka the literal guru(infact Wole Soyinka's books i read were quite easy to comprehend). How come everybody does not understand what you wrote. You need to go back to school to learn how to articulate your writing and convey your message to your audience.

Instead of moving on with your NNPC job, you come here to rub it off on us that with our local degree, we wont move any forward. As if you dont know that most NNPC engineers schooled in Nigeria. If not for the recent craze for foreign certificate.....

You seemed to have missed my point. Go back, take your time to read through. The problem here is your ability to analyse textual information.

[shampoo]

Who told you people are not doing something else alongside waiting for the second list? A lot of people have advised that in the past including me and you just appear from nowhere to insult the hopefuls. I have also interviewed people in my work place and competence is the least of the criteria for entry level. My friend i advise you to google osita onuma and you will know it is not all about foreign certificate. You cant be competent in what you have never done. It seems you cant defend your certificate.

Instead of moving on with your job, you are coming here to rob it off on us that because we dont have foreign certificate, we are not competent. Whoever told you that most of us here are not working? Recruitment these days are based on who you know so if i dont get a job i was interviewed for, I dont even have to feel i am not competent. It is because I did not press the right button or better still God does not want me to get the job. The system has left us with no option than to believe that if you dont get a job you applied for then you dont know the right people and that is what should be addressed. If we begin to see that competent ones are being picked for the jobs, our orientation will change too. The system is so bad now that it is not the competent ones that get the job in most cases or are you telling me that all GEJ's candidates are competent? Our problem is not solved if we leave issues and pursue shadows. I am sure if all of us start reeling off our qualifications here, this thread will not accomodate it.
Nigerian factor is what is killing us not competence.

The fact you cannot analyse textual information is the reason you are still on this thread whining while the successful ones and sensible ones have moved on. What part of my post glorified foreign certificates ? The fact you can't even read and understand simple premises only shows why you should read and improve on yourself. My assertion stated most engineering graduates not all, so if you see the need to find that offensive, then you fall into that category. Employers recruit people based on competencies. FYI I don't have any foreign certificate, the truth they say is bitter. Put seniments aside and gear towards self-improvement, you alone can tell yourself the truth.

Many people here are just sore losers. Its common knowledge that Nigerian Universities churn out half-baked graduates every year. These graduates actually lack very good theoritical foundation. They read only to pass examinations and not really to add knowledge and value. This is typical of most engineering graduates. what they have left after graduation is residual knowledge. You see them on job boards/fora asking for past questions and test formats whenever they are shortlisted to take a test. They expect to perform wonderfully after this fire-brigade preparation approach. People are recruited based on compentencies they can demonstrate they possess, this has nothing to do with having a 2.1 or first class. You see them getting all religious, turning job vacancy threads to fellowship meetings and prayer rooms.The sensible ones focus on getting better and read daily to update their knowledge. So you believe the 595 people who got in did so with political connect? Wake up!!! Focus on getting better, opportunity favours the prepared man. Coming here to whine about recruitment policies will not make you better neither will it get you a job. Change your perception and fix yourself, those who got the jobs are humans too.

@ezme u made a valid point......yes people should better themselves by updating their knowledge BUT i think u r driving ur point with so much negativity. I'm just at a loss how u were able to conclude that people are not presently involved in one thing or the other...that people come online to post expectations on a likely 2nd list does not mean they dont have other endeavours. Personally i dont care if anyone got into nnpc through political connection (in d first place to know someone that can help u is also God's grace) BUT if some other people think that way, my brother they are entitled to think whatever they like. what they think is not my business neither is it yours. You complained about people whining...but u do d same or whats ur business with people turning job fora to fellowship centres... U made some excellent points but sincerely ur bad manners n negative personality is more striking than ur points. Work on ur attitude..u can be a better person

Mr tunapawizzy,that was a perfect reply for deluded,arrogant and haughty fellow like ezme.
He rushed to a public forum saying rubbish and generalizing. There are pple doing masters,Phd and working here. I dont know when it became a crime 4 pple air their views and frustrations. The last time i checked freedom of speech,expression and association were still human rights. Am sure if some of us here should challenge u to a contest even in areas you 'advised' about u may fall short. Pls be guided.

[JAJAMARK]

See bashing oo!
My advice:For those waiting for 'our' list,better ignore some posts and keep on praying to God.
For those who have the job already,just watch what 'we' are posting,shake your head if you do not have any info and close the thread.
Mind you,it will take some of you years to earn the kinda salary some of us 'hopefuls' are already earning even working outside NNPC.

I refuse to be distracted.
Whether 2nd list o,atomicity's dream list o, or 2013,it is a must that I will get what I am looking for by God's grace.
Letz keep the thread alive.

Maybe you expected some 'euphemism', not everyone is wired like that. Some people tell you what you want to hear, others tell it as it is. Too bad you seem to get negative feelers from it. But, remember its written and not oral, so the tone in which you read it determines how you react to it.

Please let's leave ezme alone to his views,getting a job is one tng, keeping the job is one, keeping with good appraisal is another.Tnk God most of us have jobs here and I know pple with over. 12 yrs experience in banking in this same forum living in their houses,these same sets of pple have been part of interview panels as well.this forum is not to count achievements (both academic and career )and neither is it for jobless/hopeless pple as insinuated by some folks here.There is success and there is good success,even if u are a teacher u can still achieve the later.Attitude gives over 100% .I advice that we work more on our attitudes and sky will be the begining,even if you er living on minimum wage.good morning folks.believe me,with or without NNPC job ,God will take so many pple here to great heights.do have a nice day.

FYI I'm not with NNPC, I was not part of the last exercise. I can see you really need this job and I wish you all the best as regards the proposed second list. Enjoy the freedom of speech which this platform provides. Job boards are for information dissemination not to start a pity-party like most people come here to do.
