Companies need to find other ways apart from certificate grades during recruitment to get their ideal candidates . People just cram and pour because they hear that you have to graduate with a 2:1 or first class to get a good job without truly understanding what the course they studied is about. So unfortunate

In a country like Nigeria ..... I doubt, to be an entrepreneur you don't have to be intelligent. Besides there Is a difference between brilliance and intelligence

So what other ways do you suggest?

Like it is paining the op ...intelligent people also make things work for themselves.

It is painful na ... seen a lot of dem, wasting

Dear Madam,
Intelligent people are not unemployed. I can assure you that there's no unemployed intelligent person. Why? Because either they have been employed or they have created their own jobs(legitmate) and are working on it.
If the person is idle and unemployed,then he isn't intelligent.
But like you stated,you may be talking about brilliant people. That is,those who can read and retain what was read and can pour it out on exam days for high results. If you are talking about those,then there are many of them(brilliant) roaming the streets lOoking for job. And there will always be many of those till they add intelligence to their brilliance.

Maybe you are mixing it up ....

I was thinking you would say something better and 'intelligent'. Your post was far from that. You may have a point but you have not presented it intelligently. I can only see 'beef' undertone. Pls you can cram too to finish wit a 2.1 or go back to school to correct your mistake of not cramming enough to finish wit 2.1

Intelligence is subjective...when you consider all factors and various definitions. ..

And if every intelligent person is 'entitled' to a job, what should people who are not naturally endowed intellectually do?

Having intelligence is not enough to be entitled to a job or whatever is the 'prize' being discussed. There's a place of hardwork, common sense and attitude.

If my hardwork attitude gives me the drive to cram and earn a 2:1, what's your business? To me, if you can have a First Class, especially from an unmonitored environment like a Public University, it tells me more about your work ethic and attitude than even intelligence.
So let the 'crammers' enjoy what they worked for.

The bible has said it in Ecclesiastes: "The race is not for the swift, nor the battle to the strong,...nor food to the WISE (OR INTELLIGENT)...time and chance happeneth to them all...". Pray God shows you favour dear.

By the way, not everyone gets 2:1 et al. by cramming.

So much for intelligence. ..

U never read your bible. The race is not to the swift,bread to the wise (intelligent)..... time and chance happens to them all.
