Hello guys, my name is Fabian, a graduate of surveying and geoinformatics, now a graphic designer. I have worked with many companies here in Lagos. Companies i have worked with. i got through this forum. Thanks to Nairaland.

I want to switch back to what i studied but i am confused. Last month i went for an interview on the island, after the interview, the HR of the company told me that he would advise me to go back to the east and practice my profession because surveying is very lucrative there. On that note, he didnt give me the job haven passed the interview.

The HR said he too studied surveying and he is regretting why he didnt practise but advices people who studied same to go practise.

Because of this, I am now thinking if maybe i am wasting my time in what i do since what i studied as he said is lucrative.

Please i need advise on what to do.


Mr. Seun, please help me. I really need your advise and the advise of others.

Thank you.

You musnt really practice land surveying because for you to get registered you have to write a professional exam (I expect you to know that) but you can get a work over their in lag in construction, oil, offshore companies or even surveying firms.

Or you can simply enroll for your pupilage... Or continue your graphics work

I know i would av to write surcon exam before becoming registered, and i wish to write although i am nt yet financially ok to take the exam.

Before i switched to graphics i had looked for survey firms in lagos to work with and all i get from those firms is, there is no much job here. For me to enrol for pupilage, wont i work under a surveyor?

What do you really want? Why did you switch to Graphics instead of other skills?…could be passion. Why did you study Survey in school?…could be desperation for admission. Do what your heart really wants; Graphics design could be your goldmine, Survey could also be your pot of gold. Some interviewers have a way of intimidating candidates by passing their regretful past onto their candidates. No need to fret.

....... When you finally reached the East ......... Abeg join the Palm Wine Institute of Eastern Nigeria. ..

what is confusing you there

Another fake story...pay per click story

At a cross road
Dude thought graphic design is quite lucrative but now he's not making much from it, so he wants to return to his profession.

Guy man up and be ur own boss

But run to your profession if be ur own boss is not paying o

The grass is not always greener at the other side of the fence,It is greener where you watered it.JB

Now saying your major is lucrative in the east could be true,but what are your chances when you finally go back to the east should be your chances.Mind you,if it were to be so,you wouldn't be the only person with that mindset.
In all, I'll just tell you to turn your passion into your hobby, don't leave what you are doing because someone suggested something,it's your life,not theirs.If he really wanted to help he should have offered you that job and not tell you to go back to east.

Take your time,do your surveys,get informations
and pray about it.
Best wishes.

don't mind the HR man oo! he no want give u the job? why didn't he relocate to the village or east? but in lagos? he no like money abi? dnt mind them that's how they behave when they don't want to help you. just like pple overseas telling don't come here, this place is hard, yet they don't come back home

Hmm... . You need to do a thorough research before you jump in. There's really no guarantee that you'll do better in the new field you're considering.

Ok

typical thinking of a Nigerian... he has cars and so on.... the OP now will think it is an easy venture .... just start and in a short period of time you will buy a car.... Lol... Op you will need perseverance , handwork and dedication.... Success is a gradual thing.

U need deliverance sir

A bird at hand is worth 100+ in the bush. If it was that lucrative, why did he not quit his position and go practice

Bro can you link me with any of the companies you worked as a Graphics designer? Will really appreciate

as far as I know, quantity surveying is a very lucrative course...I have seen so many rich men in Warri here, they are all surveyors. some work with ministry while some own their own firm.

my advice is practice what u studied. sometimes changing environment is very necessary. it mustn't be Lagos.

See The way this bastards take deh confuse people... Op follow your mind, dnt mind one useless HR telling you to go back to the village.

hmmm....
