@oluwagbemiga Adelowo i bliv you and i totally agree with you it is best you travel by air, and dont cheapen yourself, because in the end, one might regret it bcos it may count against you. The only reason why i will advice some people to go by road, is if the distance btw where you are staying and lagos is not far, then go by road bcos i feel in that scenario that wil be the wisest decision..... But if you are coming from a place like Abuja, Kaduna, Katsina or Kano then it will be useless to attempt going by road The best thing will be to come by air.......
See you at the top.....

Unilever 3rd stage: Management Trainee.
@ toluluck, Amen o
@ Oluwagbemiga and the hand of God, which assessment una dey go for? Assessment on your travel expenses or on wat u hv 2offer to the company(lol).
On a serious note, no organisation is interested in how you came, their major interest lies in your ability to make it on that day and also proving to them dat u hv wat it takes.
@ chesonlee, am so coming by road (4rm Abia State which is my present location). Been doing so since and getting to lagos b4 5pm, so y change..travel na travel but its really up to you and if you decide 2go by road, make sure u leave with the 1st bus. B4 I forget, a hearty congratulations to you for making it to this stage and I pray we all (naijahotjobbers unilever potential employees) make it at the end. God dey...

Re: Unilever 3rd Stage: Management Trainee.
i've decided to come by air, i dont know if i'll get the job, but mk i chop frm dem first.

Re: Unilever 3rd Stage: Management Trainee.
@ chensonlee, better throw away that kind of attitude...be positive!! remember, be it unto u according to ur faith. wich levels na?? u don dey say negative things even b4 the D-day! haba!!
@ Zinggi, u are coming all the way from Abia? waow, u dey try oooo! na good news go finalise this one oo. abeg, don't try to travel a day b4 the interview date. let the journey be like 2 days b4 so that u can have ample time to relax cos the interview is gonna be like a whole day's job.
I am not sure but probably it might take this form as someone said about a few weeks ago on this forum
"its suppose to b an assessment centre where u'll do:a grp work,competency based interview,case study&a presentation but they might av changed"
and someone else also said
If u indicated the function u wud like to be during the interview u re likely to be interviewed by a manager in ur function especially finance. All u need is to just be confident, know what is happening around and basic things about unilever.
It's the last stage u should really gear up for it's usually a full day, and u wud be assessed on a lot of things, u wud be put in groups, just remember not to pull any of ur group members down or else u wont be seen as a good team player. All the best

Post by: jobhunters on September 15, 2010, 03:19:27 AM
@seyeoba01: Yes the final stage is going to be with the Unilever Management/Senior Management staff and that is where we are going to do stuffs like presentation,case study,group exercise e.t.c. The whole process will take the whole day according to the interviewers from Findajobinafrica.They also told me they will carefully be watching us to see how our table manners are,how we interrupt when we want 2 ask questions or how we speak....generally just really minute details that we may overlook bt are really important.Generally lets just all groom ourselves.Prepare for the main work most definitely bt also learn simple things such as sippin tea/coffee from a tea cup or holding a tea cup.They also mentioned how the UFLP selection process is being carried out globally as well.

@toluluck, thanks...at least now i have an idea of wat am going to face. God bless you plenty plenty.

Re: Unilever 3rd Stage: Management Trainee.
Its called an Assessment Center Exercise. You can google that for more information. Most multinationals use it to allow candidates demonstrate the skills and abilities essential for success in a give job.
Most importantly, be yourself, make contributions, don't try to be phoney and I'm sure you'll be fine. Cheers

Re: Unilever 3rd Stage: Management Trainee.
The final stage of the Unilever interview might possibly compose of presentations, group tasks, case studies, board interview and manners (for u might possibly have lunch nd u will be watched) will be checked. the most important of all is to be confident and carry urself well. Listen well and speak to the point.
-

Someone mentioned something about in-tray exercise.Guys that have theirs this week should google it oh.It doesn't look 2 easy but i believe God will be@work in everybodys life on that day.wish those that have theirs this friday the very best.

Re: Unilever 3rd Stage: Management Trainee.

@ sign, confidence is the key...even if the words do not come out smoothly, say it with confidence anyhow it comes out.

Unilever 3rd stage: Management Trainee.

If the taxi gives u a ticket wit d amnt chargd on it, maybe u cld present dat plus the flight ticket for a refund by Unilever. Hopefully, theyl refund all.

Unilever 3rd stage: Management Trainee.
@toluluck, dat means quite a number made it to this stage. How many people do they plan to take and how many are we going to be in a group, any idea?
-
Re: Unilever 3rd Stage: Management Trainee.
@ zinggi, take flight and save urself the stress of travelling by road, considering the fact that the road is bad. i've already booked mine.
book ur flight at www.flyaero.com, its abt 11k. u can pay wit ur atm card or u book on hold n pay at any oceanic bnk.
see u there.
-
Re: Unilever 3rd Stage: Management Trainee.
@All- I want you guys to take this opportunity very seriously....Make the very best out of the time given to you.. Remember you are in a competition with the very best in the country...
If UNILEVER can afford to pay your flight tickets, lodge you in a 5star hotel and give you the very best potential employee services care, all expenses paid, then think of what they would do when you become their staff
Give this opportuniy your best shot and never let this job slip you by...Most of all, be very prayerful. this is the time you need to be very close to God....
I wish you guys the very best.....Go and conquer.....God bless you

Re: Unilever 3rd Stage: Management Trainee.
@chesonlee, wich hotel will u be lodged? and again, if u dont want to pay much on taxis, i'd advise that u walk out to the main roundabout through the entrance in which cars come into the airport and take a lagos-painted taxi. The private taxis in the airport will charge you extremely high.
@biggerboyze, thanks for the advice.
@zinggi, i think there are quite a number slated for this stage. I just pray they take as much, and this interview stage will last for about 2 weeks, tho i dont know if it holds everyday in the 2-week period.

Unilever 3rd Stage: Mangement Trainee..
@toluluck, am guessing all that have been assessed were sworn to secrecy, thus no reply..so lets just prepare, go there and do our best then leave the rest 4 God.
@Chesonlee, still hvnt gotn a mail from UFLP that I have been rescheduled. Guess my date still holds.
