@JediKnerd & Lanyat: I shld have put it in invited comma- 'arrears' means an oustanding debt. Yes,'arrears'! Cos BAT owes those expecting Ð invite.Therefore, I wished 'em gudluck pending wen Ð 'debt' BAT owes den is paid. Clear enuff?
Ahah!.....adelowo,i knw u wil make more clarificatn. Nw wel understood. Lol!
Praise God! I just received a call from a BAT HR official now that i shld check my email, saying i've been invited for the Interview with BAT on Thursday 28th Oct, and asking me to pls confirm my attendance. So what Next?
@Shabaz: check ur mail and send ª simple 1/2 line(s) confirmatory mail to 'em. Afterwards, read previous comments to know wot to expect cos I and some pple have said one or two things bout Ð 2nd Interview. Best of luck!!!
@all pls hw do i get to their VI office frm CMS? cos am based in ABJ
Good thing. I wished they could do a teleconference interview instead of having someone travel back and forth on the bad road or even more, on those ancient planes..hahaha ;D
@ badgirlz, if they do teleconferencing how wld they know if u re the person talkin, cos someone can stand in for u n talk on the phone.
the best option is to do the interviews in diff regions; east, west, north, south.
but the problem is, how do we suggest this to them?
Skivarge, I think you can board a bus IdowuTaylor/Law School from Obalende.
Teleconferencing, well, yes. But I guess there are a couple other factors they will only be able to observe during face to face interviews. So... ;)

I think dey shud ave jus done it accordin to zones. Sinc deyv a factory in zaira it wud ave been better for dos of us n d north to have our own interviews der. But den i gues we cant complain sha cos we dey find ds job anywher wey im dey. GOD help us.
You have a point. But the head office and consequently central function(s) are in Lagos. The H/R team is stationed in Lagos.
Only liason offices are in Zaria and Ibadan where the factories are.
I'm sure you'd agree that it's not business wise to have function teams in all the zones so hey... ;)
@jediknerd n all... For dose of us yet 2 b invitd 4 d 2nd stage, do u tink we shld stil kip our fingers crossd cos i realy wnt 2 b invitd, realy.
Yeggy, do you want me to do the maths for you again? :)
Interviews start at 10am everyday. Theyy can only take about 6 - 8 applicants daily. I reckon over 300 got to the Screening phase so it's is logical that the interview would take a long time to wrap up.
You will get communicated to. I can assure you that.
Worrying never solved anything. So just go about your normal business and when you least expect it, it will come.
Cheers and be cool okay... ;)
@yeggy calm down I'm still waiting too and its pretty annoying waiting endless
@jed do u tink we re bin called in any particular order? Or is jus random selection.
God pls answer my prayer thru BAT..................... my INVITE eeh
First I thought there was an order, now I'm certain it's random selection...
Dear Baba God,

Amennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
@jediknerd hw far nw any news 4 d haus?
Hmmn! Everybody has bin caught in the first bank euphoria and little is heard bout BAT deze days. Guess those expecting calls from BAT hav decided to pitch their tents in Ð first bank camp. Those dat had their interviews recently shld update on Ð experience so other pple can learn one or two. Deuces!
Waddup house, I had my second interview today. It was basically an interactive process so I can assure you there is nothing like practising. They will ask you to give real life examples of how u have handled various situations. Anyways they said they will get back to every one within the next two or three weeks. The interviewers actually said there was still 2 more stages after this stage. I say na wah oooooo e no even tough like dis to enta heaven.
@Conquistador: '...€ nor even tough lyk dis to enter heaven'- abi ??????! Their pay 'll definately justify Ð our Odysseus journey to BAT employment. I guess dis thread is on recession for now, till 2 weeks time. I reject Ð 'chopping board' for all of us IJN......lol. Deuces
- When did you introduce a new way of doing things?
- Give an experience that change your learning process
- When did you represent a company and what was the result?
- Give an instance when you foster development of a strained relationship...
- And a couple more competence questions. No need to lie or fake real scenarios.
About the process, it's the same process as Unilever, GSK, Reckit Benkisser so no need to judge them...
@finally got my invite
@JediKnerd: Was asked exactly those same questions.
@beesoola, did you get d text msg to choose a dept b\4 you got ur invite? besides do u know if any body under IT (business services) dept has bn invited at all?
house,i had my interview today,it was two panel interview,man and woman,first was introduction ton each other and later,and the woman said she will hand over the interview to the man to ask me some questions and the man said,he will ask me two or three questions and they are, one-have you ever done anything that someone come out to tell you,congratulations you have done well or you have done bad. so it was that answer that led to the second question-have you ever be in position to represent your team outside for the benefit of the team?what is the outcome and to what extent is the benefit to the team?and later,then some other questions that relate to your personal life and later said they will get back to us in two or more weeks time...that is a long process and they will definitely get back to us when it is time....i tried my best and i hope my god will do it for everybody,if not bat but a very peaceful and competitive (package) place .....all the best house.
@ jediknerd how come you know so much i fear you o.those were among the questions asked of me. Everybody i met was sound. It'll take God's grace from now.
@ skivarge how was the interview?
:)
I trust your interview went well Alesh. Now another waiting period begins. :D
Beeesola, yours finally came as well. I reckon next week might be the last week of interviews...
Have a great weekend in advanced y'all.
@jediknerd does dt mean its d end of the road 4 dose of us dt hvnt got an invite yet?

Success to all dose dt went 4 2nd interview.may God grant u ur hrt desires IJN,Amen
See u guys on d oda side of success cos we ALL will definitely make it one day.

Oh lyn, I said no such thing. There's still 5days next week and your interview notification just needs minimum of two days ahead. So come Monday, there's possibility for invites for wednesday/thursday interviews to go out... Just be cool. No need for anxiety. :)
@alesh hw was urs? Wel as 4 me i ll say its in God's hands now . Nice 2 meet a house mbr 2day .
@ skivarge. It was fine, and same here.all the best.
@lyn i dont really tink next week is d last week cos i had sumone help me reschedule mine cos of dist and time frame given to me and he asked me if next week were okay? i jus feel dat if next week wer the last week he wud ave jus simply told me i had only next week to choose from and not ask if next week were okay.
@ jed thanks alot i tink d ans u gave abt bein a bat staff has already bin answered by ur contributions. pple waitin keep praying This our God no dey sleep oh.
Takia all i can only now wait for the new date to be communicated to me while i pray and get ready
May God help us all amen.
OMG!!!
Is this not double jeopardy,I have been waiting for my invite for some days now.Guess what! I got the call and mail yesterday.
I guess I should be happy, but it is the same day and time(i.e monday) as my firstbank test.
Anyway,thanks to every commentator on this trend,you made me feel at ease.
And to those who are still awaiting invite,Goodluck.
