Skill Test

A skill test is usually administered for those who are advanced past the aptitude test; especially for Medical, Engineering, Geoscience, Computer Applications, Accounting and other Technical positions. This stage assesses the technical knowledge of candidates in their area of expertise. This test is administered by our Technical Training Unit, the hiring department, or an authorized external consultant. In each case, HR coordinates and supervises the testing. Only candidates who meet the pre-determined cut-off mark for the skill test are invited for an oral interview.

I don't think thats the case. Most people are probably still anxious and waiting to know if they called all the people they need. It's still early.You don't expect people that are still hoping to be called to start dishing out advice. By the time it's obvious they've made final selections, hints and ideas will surface. Wait till next week and people will start offering advice

I guess so too . . . but let's just say 'everything is possible'. I really was surprised that this thread has not added up to 6 pages following the invitation for skill test. Could it be the guys they invited have M.Sc, or that the test will be weekend after weekend (I doubt, since it will give those yet to write an advantage). What I think I know is that if your scores in the first and second tests are not very close (on the high side), then you're likely not getting invited. Don't even know whether the Canton Concourse is very large though.

any chemical engineer invited yet? Google Surface Production Operations vol 1&2, heard its a good text for chem skill test...goodluck 2d invited

Honestly I don't know about the abroad guys, but I choose to believe that there is a separate arrangement for them. Trust that D*r*k guy, his team is VERY organized (unless there is a new policy on local recruitment shaa).

Pls, I want to know if any MECHANICAL ENGR. Have got a skill test invite...

@AdenugaK, present sir......

If you read the posts you will see that Mech., Civil, Pet., Chem., and Elect. Engr have all confirmed their invitation.

nt my experience though bt a fellow who did d last skill test with mobil, dont b too consumed with undergraduate chemical topics,still read them though,also read abt pumps, compressors, safety etc, all in those texts which will make u excel in ur skill test, as they deal with chemical engineering application/importance in the oil and gas production....all the best!

Thank You :)

@all Mech Engrs invited, congrats for rep'ing us wella,

Just a tip from d last skills test conducted.

D Mech test consisted of abt 45 obj questions to b ans'd in 60 mins.

Topics covered were mainly turbo-machinery, as such is tilted in favour of those who picked options in Automotive Engineering Technology and Air-condition and Ref'gn Engrg.

Turbo-machinery such as Compressors, Turbines, Pumps, pressured vessels, heat exchangers etc, as they relate to oil and gas processing, storage and transportation.

These definitely have a lot to do with, Heat and Mass Transfer, Fluid mechanics and mechanics of machines where things as inclined planes and basic mechanics is invloved.

I hope this helps, I wish Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ all d best, I will update as I recall.

@ those of us still waiting for our invitation for skills, keep d hope alive, either way it turns out may God settle us this year...cos ALL things, both being called and not being called are all working out for your good, my good and our good

All d best guys
