Ab Initio Requirements
 

hey guys n girls,
Can KQ allow you to do the tests if you dont have a degree? but have a degree equivalent?
For instance i have a diploma in engineering and a ppl,but no degree,will i be sent off during the next lot if i apply?

NEW QUALIFICATIONS
 

If the qualifications have changed then that must be goodnews...coz when the 24months elapses i'll be 24 n with a degree...hope this is not a hoax

Qualifications
 

I applieed before this degree issuie was added for qualifications,will this axe fall on me also?

changes in recruitment
 

its good news for those who had lost hope with their grades and age.but it means tough competition in the near future.for those like me who were not successful from the previous interview(s) lets get the degree and try again.wishing success to those are in their final stages of the interview.one virtue that one has to posses with kq is PATIENCE.all the best

Change in requirements
 

Moment of silence for those of us in the school of architecture. Having started campus last year, I just have to forget about the Ab initio program. I applied before the change in requirements but wasn't called. My account is still active though. They have advertised for the position and they want a degree. I feel cheated but all in all, God has a plan. All the best to those who are still in it. For those who are in the same position as me, remember Job praised the Lord even when he lost everything.

Thanks for your wishes. I also appreciate your fighting spirit. You'll make it my friend.

Double applications
 

Hi guys! I had applied for the Ab Initio program on 7th Dec last year before the requirements change. I immediately got the notification email that the application was successfully submitted. In January, 2 of my friends, who had applied after me, got a rejection email, I did not get it and my application status still remained "Active". About 5 weeks ago, they got another email calling them for the first tests. I also did not receive that email and my status still remained "Active" and is still active to date. This left me very confused. I visited The Pride Centre on Wednesday 20th March to find out what may have happened but instead I was patched through to someone in HR who informed me that there were problems with that application and that they would be opening another one on Friday 22nd March and that in this new application they would lower the KCSE requirements and they would be targeting graduates. So, first thing yesterday morning I checked the careers portal and true to their word, there was a new application posted with lowered KCSE requirements and a degree requirement. I being a recent graduate of engineering (finished in Dec, graduating in June), I promptly applied for the new application.

My confusion is that I now have two active applications, for Dec 7th and March 22nd, and I am wondering whether this may pose a problem.

Any information regarding this will be greatly appreciated.

Hey Jay36,

Do you know of specific guys who've had their accounts deactivated or received regret mails? Coz mine is still active but i dont want to get all elated just yet..... May want to be certain they have deactivated some accounts and sent regret mails.

zeus and capt scri

Yea, a close pal of mine got his terminated and received a regret e-mail:sad:.I also know of another guy whose application now reads "terminate". Let's keep the hope though.

Thanks for the information. Nothing to do now than really just wait up....hope kesho they will communicate with the rest of us so we know where we lie.

Bermuda
 

a candid peace of advice my friend.dont have expectations of that 'kesho' thing in this abinitio qualification proccess..we, your predeccessors have banked hopes on it till we were left dump! anyway, hopes pushes men and the world at large forward....

Point duly noted my man. This will be a long process that i sufficiently gathered from earlier conversations on this thread.

Curiosity
 

Captain Sicri just read this thread from the beginning and you`ll have a rough approximate.
