congrats to you bro. make it worthwhile

Thanks a lot, for sure I would!

mistinu:


When was your documentation

April 12th.

shawylux:


I must look for you in Training School. Hope you are for May 16th. I want to be like you when I grow up.

Thank you for your kind words, it would be my pleasure as well to meet new people like you in Training school next week. And yes, I'm May 16th entry as well.

Guys, with all the supposed anticlimactic nature of things going on from the accommodation issue and all which is causing a lot of bellyache at the moment, I think this is for us:

*clears throat*

Yours truly is officially a staff of First Bank of Nigeria! Training school invitation came in grand style; the most awesome thing that has happened to my email inbox. All thanks to my ever faithful father; my perfect God!

A plethora of ecstasy is the right phrase to describe how I felt seeing training school mail. From then till now, my state of being elated has made my stomach oblivious of any form of hunger all day! I might even pernoctate tonight as a result of the delectation I'm basking in at the moment.

The "no accommodation" stand by our dear First Academy hit me hard I must confess, but I know we would still cross that bridge for sure!

Big congrats to everyone who took this worthwhile Odyssey which has been exhilarating all the way, and thank God it came to a palmy juncture.

To prospective First bank staff that would be reading this post years to come: give in your best during the aptitude test and assessment, and most important; believe in yourself!

To my fellow TS batch folks, I cant wait to meet you guys in TS next week, I wish us all a stellar and promising time at First Academy and a rewarding career at First Bank of Nigeria.

Cheers!
Over and out!

Wow!

Anyone(including my humble self) who comments on this milestone page 200 would definitely receive a training school invite, in Jesus name, Amen!

Playful things like this sometimes have meaning, so I would play along.

I key into this o!

Amen!

georgeaudu:
Good evening all. I just want to express my disappointment at some folks on this thread. How can u have waited for this long since 2016 only to be crying on this thread about not being called when we all know the wait can't be that long again. You come to wonder how some people even got past the AC stage in the first place with this display of childishness. See funny people with stup*d comments like "abeg HMCD should inform us to ease the tension make boys no go get heart attack. Bros if u like get heart attack die am self nobody gives a fu*k about u" First Bank does not owe u anything. Even after the TS you can be dropped if they so wish. Those people also crying about moving on if they don't get TS mail on a particular date, Bros abeg do sharp sharp others are waiting to take that space n even wait Patiently for 2yrs if it has to take that long for the TS mail to drop. FBN does not work with your calendar uncle and auntie, if u can't wait you can as well go n hug transformer. Nobody will fast-forward any process or their planning just to make you happy n besides if you really wanted to move on with your life, considering the distance this recruitment have taken, you should have. Even people that don't have any hope aside FBN are ing others to cry, move on with my life. Bros abeg just respect yourself we all feel your pain but we sure know that even if you cry for 2yrs you will keep refreshing your mail if there is still any hope to hold on to not to talk of the fact that a lot of guys have not been called, why can't you just chill. Others have turned prophets n analizers here trying to justify the suppose reasons for the delay, Bros please except you have tangible info from a reliable source we don't want to hear it. Come on guys I know how it feels to be in this condition but do we have to display our inpatience n desperation in a forum like this. Even if FBN is your only hope, believe in yourself that for you to be be called for documentation you must have something FBN needs and if it eventually doesn't come, it's not your loss, move on with your life besides a lot of people were dropped both at the aptitude test stage and the AC stage so for having come this far, thank God and appreciate yourself.. That's self worth. I know we have a lot of people that can speak English here. Abeg make una no come attack me, I no study English for school. I dey use God beg una........

Dude, you sound like you are experiencing cognitive dissonance!

First and foremost; this is a discussion forum! So what do you expect candidates of similar goals/aspirations to discuss rather than the matter at hand? Huh? Being anxious or anticipative of a job applied for isn't absurd, it shows how much you want it, and if you didn't want it you shouldn't have applied for it in the first place.

How does discussing about imminent factors now correlate to being desperate, stupid and childish as you said? Watch that bitter tongue of yours. You sound so insular and your condescending diatribes completely kill any supposed good message your post should have had.

Sorry to say, but in one word, your epistle is: balderdash!

Guys, if you are the type who has plenty girls as friends for them to show you their Facebook inbox/notifications, you'd know the type of excess attention ladies get on Facebook.

Even the ugliest girls get their inbox and notifications flooded, all thanks to stupid randy Nigerian guys who keep on licking the a*s of every lady on Facebook. When I see Nigerian guys doing this on Facebook it annoys me like mad! A lady drops a picture and you see their a*s licking comments and they also rush into her inbox as well. I tag such guys as men who find it hard getting girls, annoying set of people!

So you just used your money to buy your relationship a problem, it would take a lady with strong will not to get moved by such attention, and if its her first time getting such attention, brother you are on a long thing o!

If its just me or guys like myself on Facebook, I bet you most ladies would have uninstalled the app long ago.

Just ignore this lady, text her and inform her that you have seen she has enough attention already and yours is no longer needed, then watch, if she comes back then set standards for her to follow if she wants you guys to be cool, if she doesn't come back then smile and kiss the b*itch goodbye because such a child would only give you more headaches.

Bacteriocin:

firstly, there is nothing like customer service officer again in accion: it's now called transaction officer which is a combination of cso and teller's job. The training is always a month for all new intakes but I cant say anything about bond and salary package for operation staff. Will confirm and get back to you.

Thank you so much for the information so far. I would be expecting more information from you soon.

Hey guys, someone has been asking about this Accion job and wanting important details so he can make a decision and I searched and saw this thread after she searching.

He applied for a customer service officer role, not Lagos branch, south south region, and was called for aptitude test, please how much do they pay for a start for such position? And how much is paid after probation?

Do they go for 3 months training school as well for such position? And do they give 2 years bond for working with them for such position as well? Lastly, I kept reading about targets here, are positions like customer service officers given targets as well?

Bacteriocin, gingger; Please your contributions would be helpful. Thanks.

Don't u think at the stage of documentation,what really count is wether you are the real owner of the certificate you claim to have and not the age,wether above or below the limit.You see,i don't know why employers of labour neglect performance,ability etc to issues like age etc.Age does not always determine performance or ability.I wish employers of labour. especially in Nigeria here,should stop using this age thing to drive smart intelligent people away.

I get your point, its mostly in Nigeria you see employers pegging age limits for basic job positions, they mostly do such to reduce the number of millions that would apply, and they also feel the stated age range is perfect for them to get the best out of you during such period, although age limits doesn't necessarily affect performance in general per se but the truth is that they have a right to pick whatever age range they want.

Also, going by your logic, every body is qualified to have applied for this position then, what stops a 40 year old from applying and getting to this point and asking to be pardoned since he has proven performance is not related to age.

Like I said earlier, I'm not an FBN authority here, everyone can try any option they are cool with during documentation, its the resultant effect that would matter and Gods grace and favour does wonders I must say, so you can key into that.

ephpremvl:


Please o,for those who have scaled through documentation,what if one does not have WAEC,what about NECO result?

I'm no authority here, but from the little I know, you are expected to present your WAEC certificate by all means necessary, even if you had 9 F9's you can present it along with the NECO.

The WAEC certificate issue is no brainer, they know that's one of the most authentic way to age, because when most of us were writing WAEC; most of us were below 18 and very few would see any reason reducing their age at such time.

adedee14:

Boss can I know about career prospects. Departments within fbn and what determines the department you will be given.

Departments like: Strategy, IT, Business Process Management, e-business, Marketing, FinCon, Human capital management and development (HCMD), Corporate transformation, Budgeting, Treasury, etc.

About posting; high performers in training school get one of their preferred departments which they picked, other department posting for others is not an A,B,C affair, lots of other reasons affect department postings.

About career prospects; FBN has fair enough career prospects, especially when you are a high flyer professionally.

Mush:
Please who can provide accurate figures about the annual salary as a GT. I had decided to relocate to the States this month end. But is this job a good reason to stay? Or rather come back after 20days..Although im a contract staff in another bank presently, which wasnt worth staying back 4.

Mistmipher:
Exactly, i'm currently abroad doing my masters, do you have an idea how much they pay?

Pay after training school is between 150-175k monthly.

Valendo:


Hello, please do you think GCE is okay considering it has my age

As long as it has your age which keeps your age within the age range FBN needs; please use it.

Mush:
Im so surprised thought it was a scam mail, its been almost a year aint it. That AC was mad didnt even hav any hopes. For lagos....Men don get other job and wan relocate go yankee this month sef...any advise?

Yankee you say? I would take entering Yankee legally over almost all jobs in Nigeria. Are you entering Yankee for studies? If its for studies I would advice you stay and rock this FBN job, you'd get a lot of career development privileges and opportunities being a core staff of FBN so I see no need if you are travelling out for studies.

pearldaisy:

Hi. I sent you a pm pls respond

I have responded.

Guys, whatever you do, please go with your WAEC certificate, please!

The main source of age verification used by First Bank and other banks is that WAEC certificate, all those affidavits/declaration of age/birth certificates are mere formalities, they can be easily faked.

Whatever you do, take along your WAEC certificate for documentation.

Kentrasso:
Congrats to everyone who got called up recently. The thread is alive and kicking again

I have a question tho. My birth certificate is only a photocopy. will it be accepted? The original copy has been missing for years

Go get an affidavit/declaration of age, it would do. You have to present the originals of every document you submit.

eagledan:
Is there anyone for Enugu location? Cos am yet to get a mail

onyebig1:

i think no one ..
am with u too

My documentation mail dropped by 11:16am for documentation at First Academy Enugu for Thursday and Friday.

I don't reside in Enugu though, but that's the closest location to the location I filled when updating my location details.

Iamabraham:


Congrats bro. I'm very happy for you. Glad you made it!

Esthered:

Congrats as you deserve it with the help you rendered to us throughout the journey.

Thank you guys! God bless you all!

Yours truly got his success mail! Faithful father!

Congrats to us all, you can't imagine how utterly elated I was when I saw the email.

Mehn its been a long wait, I all those who ed me here and I kept reassuring them that more training school batches would follow, some even lost faith already in my reassurances, but like a smell of petrichor from a long awaited rain after a long dry season; the joy is finally here!

Accept my felicitations everyone; let's bask in the ambience of this great victory!

What how sex is so cheap now to get from lots of ladies, it would take only a guy with low self esteem to pay hundreds or thousands of naira for a sex doll.

This line got me giggling so bad here:

"...(she) was reportedly sold out by the “after sex” smell and condom odour that was allegedly sniffed out from her privates by her husband."

Is the husband a sniffing dog or something? These bloggers and juicy catchy writeup.

Nigerian celebs are just bunch of pathetic proud uncivil dimwits, just because they got some cash they wanna be above the law, you would never seen anything like this from the likes of Bill Gates, Zukerberg or Dangote, those are the real big boys with comportment.

AutoJoshNG or anyone else with valid information, please what's the name and model of the blue pick up van beside the Ford edge in the last photo which has all 7 Ford cars? Thank you.

awomike4u:




Please sir, how can I for the voter's card?

Proceed to the nearest INEC local government office in your area and get enrolled, and then a TVC would be handed over to you.

JusticeSeeker:
@OP how do I change my polling unit as a result of change of residence/address?

That can only be done at your present INEC local government office, you'd apply for a transfer of polling unit, and you do that in writing.

dammyloye:
mumu, dumb mofos everywhere.......there is difference between Buhari and federal government, federal government made that empowerment program so as to reduce the issues of insufficient staffs in our education and healthcare system. (a case of scratch my back make I scratch ur back)

Funny how your reason.

Isn't it Buhari's istration that engineered the program? Hence why the candidate is thanking Buhari, won't the same Buhari be referred to if his political programs turn out a failure?

The successes and failures of any istration are always attached to the president during that istration.

shaiba:
Cool, it works

Yes it does.

Good day guys,

Do you need to your voter card details or have lost your card or voter card indenification number (VIN), use the link below to check it. This would be helpful if you need to know your VIN for verification purposes and have lost your PVC or TVC.

All you need to input is your state of registration, surname, date of birth or VIN and within seconds all your verified details are shown including your polling unit.

Seriously? I'm amazed considering the OP's submission about the word "presently."

The word "presently" can be used to refer to "happening soon" and "happening now" as well. Do these bloggers have any lexical training of any sort before posting gibberish on grammar?

Lukaku and his manager are no different, his manager Mourinho never attacks big teams on the bitch; only during press conferences, that's when you see him running his mouth and Lukaku never scores big teams.

Even Lacazette that just came to England has scored Man city and Man utd.
