Cool

actually some countries issue restrictive regional or commonwealth only passport , hence the distinction .International simply means non-restricted .
amaandani , as a tz citizen , there won't be much trouble for you to get a job back home ...not to worry .

I am pretty sure the scheme is for only Nigerians and already having a cpl does not qualify you for the cadet scheme coz Y double train.. To have a valid Nigerian International passport you need to have been cleared by the local authorities (think thats y they ask for it).

Question Answers please

Hello all, I've got a couple of questions with regards to VK and their cadet scheme. I applied but never heard back from them. In order to prevent the thread from going off track, I would really appreciate it if VK insiders/staff pm me, maybe y'all could answer the burning questions I have. Thanks

I applied back in July, didn't even get an acknowledgement email from them. Now here's the kicker, I meet every requirement that was being asked for on the ad and a lil' extra. I've aplied again, let's see what will happen this time around. Goodluck to me and others in my boat.

I applied in july as well and was invited for an aptitude test which went well(thank God). was even sent a mail mid october informing successful candidates that the psychometrics assessment is coming up soon.
but there's the possibilty that the aptitude test is still being conducted for shortlisted candidates.your best bet is to call the HR unit. Pity i dont have their number but i'm sure you can find a contact number somewhere on their website..
