A surge in job applications has caused technical issues on the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited website, leading to slow load times and difficulties for applicants.
According to The PUNCH, this comes shortly after NNPC announced it is hiring new workers.
The company had unveiled a significant recruitment drive, seeking skilled and committed individuals for various roles across its departments.
However, the massive response from job seekers has overwhelmed the company’s website, resulting in technical problems.
PUNCH reports a 404 error on the website.
“Due to unprecedented traffic to the NNPC Ltd. career page from applicants applying for vacancies, the site is currently experiencing slow load times.
“Our technicians are working diligently to rectify the problem as quickly as possible.
“Please be assured that the application process deadline remains August 20, 2024,” the NNPC confirmed in a statement on X.
It was learnt that this recruitment exercise could be the largest since NNPC transitioned into a limited company in 2022.
