Information reaching me has it that you will need the following to succeed in the company's overall assessments, interviews and on-the -job training:

1. Good quantitative skills which are assessed through a written quantitative aptitude test. When a friend's friend wrote the test, he was given about 25 or 26 questions to solve in roughly 24-26 minutes. Pass mark was >17. I believe the pass mark still remains this figure.

2. If you pass the quantitative aptitude test, you will be asked to sit a verbal aptitude test in other for the company to assess your verbal skills. The verbal test comprises a comprehension passage (a very short one), sentence completion, synonyms and antonyms, as well as singular and plural, words and opposite. There were about 36 questions to be answered in 30 minutes. Pass mark was > 21. The current pass mark shouldn't be less than this figure.

3. If you pass the verbal aptitude test, you will be congratulated and asked to complete 3 short essays. The essay, as I heard, tested applicants' writing skills and how well they can articulate their thoughts and put them in writing within few minutes. Grammatical errors, spelling errors and bad usage of tenses should be avoided as much as possible.

4. If you do well on the essays, you will be invited for an interview with the owner of the firm and his senior employees. As I got to know, you would be grilled on key concepts that are relevant to what the job function entails.

5. If you impress your interviewers, you may be made an offer. The salary falls in the range of 65K-100K per month.

There is no need applying if you are not interested in becoming a stock person in the future. Additionally, there is no need applying if you lack Excel skills and cannot work under critically intense pressure.

If you have more questions, please send me a PM. I know someone who can provide all the answers you need.

I hope this little piece helps...

Ighoeve, your friend in the job search business.
