• Shows increase in ICT applications

According to a recent affiliated report from the Nigeria Bureau of Statistics (NBS), and online recruitment service, Jobberman, the number of applications in the third quarter of 2016 dropped from 266,797 compared to 815,163 applications in the same quarter of 2015 culminating in a 67. 3 per cent relapse. This is despite the slight increase in vacancies to 14,112 compared with 14,005 in the third quarter of 2015.

The reports indicated that in July, there were 86,643 applications, which rose to 93,164 in August, before falling to 86,990 in September. This implied a total of 266,797 applications during the quarter compared to 213,922, 287,547, and 313,694 in the same three months of 2015, a total of 815,163.

From the report, the top five most popular industries to receive the most number of applications accounted for over 70 per cent of total applications: Trade/Services received the largest number of applications with 40.7 per cent applications, a slight increase relative to the same quarter of the previous year, when the industry accounted for 40.2 per cent of applications.


Also, in July and August over half of all applications were made to the Trade/Services and Consulting industries, although this fell to just under half, 48 per cent in September. In July, August and September, this industry received 35,596, 39,261 and 33,690 applications respectively, which is equivalent to 41.1 per cent, 42.1 per cent and 38.7 per cent of the total number of applications in each month.

In July and August, Consulting was the industry to attract the second largest number of applications, and accounted for 15,102 in July, and 11,939 in August, or 17.4 per cent and 12.8 per cent respectively. However, there was a drop in the number of Consulting applications in September to 8,867; 10.2 per cent of the total.

However, there was a simultaneous increase in ICT/Telecommunications applications, which led to the latter industry being the second most popular for applications in the month. Nevertheless, consulting accounted for the second largest number of applications in the quarter and accounted for 35,908; 13.5 per cent of the total.

Also, by location, Lagos recorded the highest number of active applicants with 41,839 equivalent to 56.4 per cent; an increase from the proportion of 53.7 per cent in the previous period, followed by Abuja with 7,624; 10.3 per cent of the total.
The proportion of applicants who were based outside of Nigeria also remained similar, at 4.3 per cent, compared to 4.4 per cent in the period considered in the previous period. Yobe, Jigawa and Zamfara were the three states to account for the smallest number of active applicants, with each state accounting for less than 0.1 per cent of the total.

The youths of today are generally lazy. They only have the time to moan online.

Moaners and wailing zombies have forgotten they need to look for job as they use their day and night to wail.

With the high rate of scam and fraudulent job offers nowadays, one cannot be surprised by the gradual disenchantment of applicants.

[quote author=MrPresident1 post=52521031]No one knows the exact day that Jesus Christ will come back, but the Bible gives us the reference period when all things MUST be concluded including the establishment of the kingdom of God here on earth.

In the Book of Daniel 2:44, we are told that Christ will come during the days of trying to mix iron and clay. Now the incoming rulers of iron have said that they will not have anything to do with clay when they come in, and Daniel tells us that it is in the days of trying to mix iron and clay that the kingdom of Christ will be set up.

The days of trying to mix iron and clay ends on the 20th of January 2017

Let us all prepare to receive our Messiah, Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in our watchfulness and sobriety. He will be here on or before Tuesday 20th of January 2017[/quote) should sango talk about things like these? Perhaps you should talk about mixing thunder and iron. Loool

It is well.

Meanwhile, A new transportation startup is looking for drivers that are willing to join the company and coordinate some of its first rides. We offer rides to workers leaving their homes to work every morning and bring them back and we want drivers who can drive our buses and take these people to their destinations.

Looking for the following in a driver:
-courteous and intelligent
-ability to seize initiatives
-Possess a driving licence
-Sizeable number of years behind the wheel

Renumeration
-Payment is based on how many passengers driver is able to convey each morning. Payment is a percentage cut of fares paid by customers.
