I woke up this morning with the news that FCSC has shortlisted lists of successful candidates in the ongoing recruitment exercise by the Commission in various Federal Ministries.

Succinctly, I have a friend who studied Business Administration with 3rd Class, while I have Msc and Bsc (2.1) all in Economics. Both of us applied for the same position (SGL 09) in the Ministry of Trade & Investment. Perhaps, to my greatest perplexity, this guy's name was shortlisted while mine was conspicuously missing. Just a few minutes ago he opened up to me that the father made "some calls" on his behalf prior to this time.

For your information, we are of the same age bracket, applied for same position, from the same State. So what criteria could have been used to disqualify someone with Msc and Bsc (2.1) and someone with a 3rd Class was selected.

Holding other factors constant, I am so happy for him and I am so expectant that mine is coming. But this has kept me in an awe position, as the whole scenario depicts lack of correlation between merit and success in this entity called Nigeria.

WHAT A COUNTRY? So help me God!


I have an explanation sir. You are over qualified and they believe you may be poached by the more organised and better paying organised private sector.

Otherwise why?

This just shows how screwed the country is and a place where things that defers simple ideology are done.
Wait interviews are based on mentality nd not mainly on grades.. if a 3rd class mentality fr a job is better than a 1st class den why nt giv it to wu can do it better.. nd evn dis is a country wir people's mentality are based on aving d best grades secures u job.. NO
Dats y most graduates in Nigeria cnt secure a job.. seeing dir grades as a guarantee to securing a job. in developed country ur ability secures job for u not Grade... have a change of Mentality an also GRACE speaks.. d G factor

I don't understand......Are you guyz now saying those who graduated with first class should be preffered over third class? Haba!! Where una wan make 2nd class and 3rd class people go? Everyone cannot be as bright as those who are graduated with 1st class. Abi 3rd class no be result?
Employment is not only meant for 1st class graduates, it is for everybody.
THIS IS NIGERIA!!!

This way of thinking is why Nigeria is still backward in almost all facets when compared to other countries. So merit should be set aside, right?

Seriously, I'm not saying merit should be set aside. In fact, those with first-class should always be considered first but those with third-class, are they not humans? I made that statement cos most comments were pointing at first-class, meanwhile everyone is in the game regardless your grade. For the fact that there are first-class graduates doesn't mean that lower grades should not be considered as well.

Sorry Op, but you sound ignorant and arrogant. Instead of protesting the lack of transparency in the shortlisting process you are contesting why a third class should be taken in your stead. Civil service dont use grade, thats the bitter truth. Once you have the degree, you are qualified. If you have a higher degree it is disregarded except where it is demanded as a requirement.

You should be concerned that not all applicants are being given the chance to go for interview but a handpicked few.

My brother, I feel ur pain. But remember that we are not one and may not be in the nearest future. We all are in one way or the other divided along political, tribal, social status and class, religious, cultural and regional lines.

To my fellow citizens,
If you are a son of just an average man or worst still a poor man and u are busy preaching, believing or fighting over "one Nigeria", My dear wake up cos you are only dreaming.

One Nigeria is only being practised among politicians and rich class irrespective of their tribes, religion or geopolitical zone. They share their juicy jobs and appointments among themselves but some very poor people will be here fighting each other over them.

Can I hug you? Nice write up.

There is nothing spectacular about federal jobs if your agency ain't generating revenue or isn't a special agency.

God has something better in stock for you.

Finally, forget this your 3rd Class versus 2-1 thingy.

So you have a 2.1 and an Msc in Economics and you want to waste your time with civil service job. What happens to applying to International development organisation.
Try contributing articles to International economics journals and you could land your self a job.
