I really wouldn't advice anyone to cross there. If you have a job currently, stay where you are. Jumia will draw you out of your current job and render you jobless. About 45 people were layed of around end of november 2012 and another set of 40 layed off end of june 2013. I can say it because a lot of my friends are victims of this employer of labour. If you don't have a job, you can take it with the mind set of contract. But if you have, please don't cross to jumia. It might be the wrongest decision u will make in ur career.

I once worked there. I had high hopes and expectations of the coy before going in because of the buzz all over the net. But I got burned and had to resign from there. Still licking my wounds and tending it to heal well. Didn't enjoy the treatment I got there nor the whole settings. If you are jobless and have nothing doing, you may go there. But please like the other person advised, I would not advice you leave your present job for this. Over time I believe the coy would get better and standardise things though. It has prospects if things are done well.

Hmmmm....
I know what the people here are saying might be entirely true...
I know the day they fired some people... My friend was scared that they though but havent heard from him...

However it is very wrong to tell people not to cross there if they dont want to get burnt... In my opinion it is not totally right.

I believe some people have been working with them since the inception of the company and they are happy... So just like any other job, understand that no one is indispensable and do your job well and be goal driven. Look for better jobs till you reach where you are happy and comfortable...

Also have dreams and personal goals... Not just to keep working for someone. Build yourself wherever you are but at the end of the day, the information here is just an information and its left to individuals to make their choices.

The ball is in your court.

If you're sure you completed your application, then check your inbox and spam mail. Applying again might come across as multiple entry though there's nothing about it in the advert. #JustSaying

I applied and wrote the interview yesterday. I passed each level of the interview and watched others being screened out as the interview requires you to pass the current level before qualifying for the next one. after about 3hrs. only seven of us made it to the final level and we were told to read a paper containing different words and after that a girl was automatically employed and a guy was told to wait behind while the rest of us were told to go. I was pissed because after putting so much effort as well as the other people just one person was picked from the lot.

I have two friends with no degrees working for jumia. I guess they are more concerned with ur capability than your degree. A thing idea Nigerian companies should embrace.

I understand the feeling Bro. Dont allow the feeling of disappointment overwhelm you. Learn from the experience, develop your self further and explore other opportunities.
