NNPCL Begins Recruitment Aptitude Test For 45,689 Applicants
By Trek Africa Newspaper
No fewer than 45,689 applicants are on Saturday, (today) taking part in a Computer-Based Aptitude Test as part of the recruitment process to secure employment at Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited.
The aptitude test, currently being administered at the Ansar-Ud-Deen Society Centenary Resource Centre in Maitama, Abuja, as well as at various other testing centres across Nigeria, marks the second stage of the rigorous recruitment process that began earlier this year.
It would be recall that on July 25, 2024, the company announced openings for new entrants into the company.
The NNPC spokesperson, Olufemi Soneye, in a statement, said the recruitment would be for various positions across various departments within the energy company and interested applicants to visit the NNPC careers page for application instructions.
But in a new post on its official Facebook handle to update the public on the process on Saturday, the national oil firm reiterated that only the most qualified candidates will be selected for employment at the end of the exercise.
The post read, “As the Computer-Based Aptitude Test for NNPC Ltd.’s recruitment begins today at various centres across the country, 45,689 applicants compete in a transparent and inclusive recruitment process.”
The NNPCL Group Chief Executive Officer, Mele Kyari, who paid a visit to the centre, promises a smooth, transparent, fair, and credible process.
“As an equal opportunity employer, NNPC Ltd. has made special provisions to ensure that applicants with disabilities can take the test without any hindrance.
“The GCEO reiterated that only the most qualified candidates among the 45,689 applicants will be selected for employment,” the statement added.
This may be the major recruitment exercise since the NNPC fully transformed into a limited company in 2022.
