The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has refuted report making the rounds that it is conducting another recruitment exercise for various positions at its recently revamped Port Harcourt refinery.

The company debunked the claim, warning the public against a fake recruitment link in circulation online.

In a statement on Friday, Olufemi Soneye, the company’s chief communications officer, said no separate recruitment process exists besides the one that began last year.

Soneye clarified that candidates who passed the computer-based aptitude test during the recruitment process have proceeded to the interview stage this week.

“The purported recruitment link being circulated in various online platforms is the handiwork of fraudsters who are keen on taking advantage of the newly revamped Port Harcourt Refinery to fleece unsuspecting members of the public with a phantom recruitment announcement,” Soneye said.

“We, therefore, call on members of the public to be wary of the ploy and not fall for it.”

Recall that on November 26, the Port Harcourt refinery commenced crude oil processing after several years of being moribund.

The refinery also commenced the loading of petroleum products for trucks.NNPCL said the refinery is currently operating at 70 percent of its installed capacity, adding that it intends to increase operations to 90 percent.
