dat u have a first class in banking and finance does not mean KPMG,shell, Pwc etc will give u automatic job, it doest work dat way. u will have to write tests and do series of interviews (note what dey are looking out for is not always intelligence, u may be a book worm and lack interpersonal skills or cannot use logic but cram ), so she shud take d job, and be applying o, there are many first class from federal skuls still looking for jobs,

Banking and finance

I just saw this.

Tell her to start ICAN and ACCA as well.

No job ke?!Wen KPMG dey there? Isalie joor
If isatrue make she apply for PG scholarship...e sure me die say she go get full funding.

Everything depends on what she wants and also her dream (s). If she is young (in her early 20s) and her dream is to work in a big coy, she should take up the lecturing job and give herself like 3 years to develop and specialize before rushing to labour market coz by that time she will be in her mid-twenties and that with good qualifications and right professional status with 3 years exp. will be a good plus.

Lecturing will give her the chance to be well grounded and also the time to take up some professional courses like ACCA,ICAN and possibly CFA.

From my own experience, some of this companies are confused and some do not have plans for trainee especially fresh graduate so it is better she finds where there will be room for constant developments. The mistakes we make in Nigeria is that we think money is everything.

I personnally do not suggest to people especially those in their early 20s to start looking for job coz after 1 or 2 years they start complaning of salaries and promotions , it is rather good for them to use the age on their side to develop themselves.

Half loaf is better than none

Everything you have said is correct but may not work in her choosen discipline here in Nigeria. If she enters a well organised company, she will receive the proper training she needs to develop herself. Infact an auditing firm will be the best for her. They will groom you to a point that after 5 years, other companies are seeing you as someone capable to become a CFO.

Lecturing in Nigeria may not equip her with jack unless she goes abroad for her masters. Wth a first class she should be targeting audit firms and investment banks. A lot will employ her especially considering her age.
