Verbal Assessment

Passage will be followed by four (4) questions, each question has four(4) answer opt ions from which you are meant to select the two(2) correct answer options:

Sample Passage
Amendment to your credit card agreement:
As a result of new legislation, there are important changes to the default charges on credit card accounts, effective from the first of next month.
Annual Percentage Rates (APRs) on existing balances will no longer be raised for all late payments. The APR will only be increased if the minimum monthly payment is not
made within 90 days of the due date. If your APR rate increases due to payment after this grace period, it will only return to its original rate if minimum payments are made
by their due date for three consecutive billing cycles.
Please note: Annual Percentage Rates for future transact ions may be raised at any point, subject to 60 days prior notificat ion of any rate change.
You will no longer be charged a penalty fee for exceeding your credit limit. However, it is important to remember that any transaction that will cause you to go over your
credit limit may be declined. Thus, it is essential to stay aware of how close you are to your limit.
For your convenience, the payments due date will now always fall on the same day of every month. This due date will always be 30 days from the last day of your
statement period. Although your APR rate will not be affected by payments falling within the 90-day grace period, your account will still be charged a late payment fee if
payment is received after the due date.

2) Which two of these statements must be true?
a) APR rates can only be increased if payments are more than 90 days late.
b) Late payments will no longer be subject to an increased Annual Percentage Rate.
c) Prior to this new legislation, payments made less than 90 days late attracted a higher APR.
d) Elevated APR rates incurred by late payment will apply for a minimum of three billing cycles.

3) Which two of these statements must be true?
a) New legislation has resulted in more lenient terms for the account holder.
b) The changes described are intended to prevent late payments.
c) The changes to the account do not come into effect immediately.
d) New legislation has revoked all credit card default fees.

4) Which two of these statements must be true?
a) Account holders now have more time between the statement’s final day and the payment due date.

d) The account’s grace period has been extended.

Tompolo speaking from Naija Delta.

cheers

need chevron test format too

@ tompolo & Others:

Good day all,

Been getting plenty of enquiries for the Tests sconducted on 29 January, 2011.

The delay might help us in a lot of ways. The six month period between the application and the test enabled me acheive the MCSE-Security status and acquire the ITIL Foundation v3 certification. That skillset will help me in this and, hopefully, other recruitement campaigns.

Besides improving on our skills, the percieved delay could also serve to increase our years of experience as requested on the job advert(pls refer to my previous postings on the subject matter).

As you continue to improve yourself, it would serve us to constantly update our profiles on the Chevron Nigeria Jobs page. Surely, our profiles are currently being reviewed in preparation for the next stage.

Lastly, and most importantly, never forget the importance of sincere heartfelt prayers and have unshakeable faith that God will fix us as he so wishes and in the best positions for us.

Remain blessed and have a great weekend.

has anyone being contacted after the test?

@Matrix007

No one has been conducted after the test. However (and i stress: in your best interest), prepare for a long wait but include try your best to convince yourself that you ain't losing in the end. Polish your social profile though.

Best wishes to those who will be taking tests for other positions in the coming days.

We shall overcome!!!
