Nigeria's unemployment is huge, we all know that, partially because of our high population, also traceable to high rate of corruption and nepotism; you will also agree with me that despite these social enemies some people still get their dream job irrespective of the high competition as well. Can we just close this topic by saying they were just lucky? Or is there something different they did? Before I go into details I will like to share my story on the “search for job” I hope I will be able to summarize it effectively.

My story-“After my high school I was so idle and bored, a jambite, sit at home no job, chase girls in the neighborhood becoming troublesome, I knew it is not a life I wanted, though I wasn’t practically broke at least had a saving of N8,400 one morning I went out and accidentally met a girl I liked a lot, she likes me too so after we greeted she decided to buy an airtime for N100 from another friend of mine who sells recharge card, so quickly I offer to pay and she let me thanking me. 100 bucks is small money for me even if I wasn’t with cash there, so I told the recharge card seller that I will pay him later, then I rushed home to get 100 bucks from my over 8k savings, guess what the money was gone!

While in school my hunger for job was still burning, so what I did is, I pick another job during semester breaks, my new manager liked me so much he let me come each time am on break, though we had our little fights at times. I successfully saved more money, pay for my rent, bought myself expensive snickers and jean wears, and bought my first HP laptop pay all my bills.
