People need to STFU about 2.2 graduates being screened out. Any mediocre student can graduate with a 2.2 grade in Nigeria.

Considering the average Nigerian graduate is barely educated, i see absolutely no reason why a requirement of 2.1 and up should not be used as a screener.

Granted, a 2.2 student might be intellectually superior to a 2.1 holder. HOWEVER, what sets them apart is "hard work & dedication." This is way more valuable in the workforce.

The same dedication to studies which resulted in a 2.1 is what would be applied to the job. Also, the same excuses, procrastination and low motivation which led to a 2.2 will also be brought forward to the job. If you owned the company, which of these would you want?

Reality over sentiment.

This is a torture. I was very optimistic of getting this job because it is my field and I have sufficient experience on the job, But my application was abruptly decline by the ATS because I had 2:2.

Frustrated. Maybe I should start doing some white lies about my grade. What do you think people.

Write them a polite letter telling them why you believe you're better than their type of candidates. Some companies do reconsider. I've seen it before.

Word of advice..

Get your stuff together. Having a 2-2 might mean that you cannot be short-listed for certain jobs but it does not mean that you cannot go on to do what you really want to do. In what country do you live?

I have discovered that in some countries, the grade 2-2 might not be as harmful as in some others. When you do a masters degree (or get an MEng degree). Things can only get better for you as a 2-2 graduate, especially if your masters is in a sought after field.

Do not waste time crying. Always check for requirements before applying. Do not waste your time applying if you do not meet minimum requirements. Never hope on 'luck' or 'God' if you have not done your homework. You'll be wasting your time.

Not everyone is destined for 9-5 jobs. What skills do you have? If you insist on getting a 9-5 then study further. Simple.

Hope that helps.


Got your story.

But God did it for me the fist time and second time.
I worked for MDGs and Central Bank of Nigeria on a contact and I gained my experience with such huge organisation. It was the same 2:2 that got me those. I understand clearly that it is not Gods will for me. I never bothered myself about job before. I just apply and that is it.
At the moment, I am handling more responsibility and I cannot afford a delay.

But God is on it.

Don't lie about your grade. A Grade, in most cases, is not a function of one's level of intelligence, especially now that students pay for grades. Don't ever think about denying who you are for anything you need or want. Love who you are, focuse on improving your talent (we all have talents, just try to discover yours and it may not have anything to with the course you studied at school), work hard, be patient and one day, you may own a company bigger than the one you applied to. Money is never the issue, it about ideas and your readiness to start small and ignore every negative remarks from friends and loved ones, they will never see what you are seeing with your eyes. I wish you the best.

My dear don't lose hope or be frustrated, yours will come. Even if you are very qualified: with enough experience and a 2.1, if they still don't want to take you, there is nothing you can do.
Are you telling me they must employ ALL the candidates with 2.1 and adequate experiences about the job?

sorry@op.



but seriously,we Nigerians are really the ones spoiling/corrupting this country.
All this preference for ist class and second class upper should definitely stop.those who had lower grades might even be better than they.

As far as am concerned,a 2.2 is not a lower grade.

@op,God is preparing your testimony,just keep trusting in him.

One thing I hate seeing in nairaland is this issue of 2.1 and 2.2... Wats the difference between both is 0.01.In some courses this 2.2 is not easy to come by I tell you. This topic really kills the moral of 2.2 graduates especially those that gave in their best.
Nigeria kills talents. What courses this rubbish is just this high rate of unemployment

I talked about the dire plight of 2.2 grads in nigeria just recently and one guy was arguing with me. Nigeria is a country full of injustices and lop-sided-thinking leaders. For example do you rate a 2.2 from a tough school like FUTA with a 2.2 from Kogi State university or Abia state university? Organizations that have called them to interview can tell u, even a 3rd class fro FUTA or FUTM will shame a 2.1 from most of these mushroom state universities and yeye federal schools. Our educational sector is pure pure trash

I will encourage 2:2 holders to work and gain experience and further run a masters course in the field of experience...you would never regret such move..it puts you at par with even a 1st class or second class upper graduate with an Msc...

For all those yearning to start with there undergraduate studies I urge y'all to be serious and attain a first class or a 2:1 because even the least company that wants to pay you 2naira per month requires you come out with such grades...
