how come its difficult 2 get a job wit a 2.2, which is not a bad grade, cos its like most companies employ pple wit a 2.1or is it by luck. lots of love

Third class honours get job. You may really have to equip yourself better, most times is not the issue of grade but an issue of selling yourself when you have an opportunity to attend an interview.

i agree with mypeace.the question is can you sell yourself?a 2.1 gives you an audience but a 2.2 means you have to make sure you have an audience.when you finally get it, what do you do with it?

True words, but i wonder why they like to make life look difficult for we nigerians

i wonder-o they are just making life miserable for people. anyway, we will get there one day sha.

Landers,
Why do we chose to argue over split milk.Does anyone here want to go back to school to make a 2.1. The truth of the matter is that 1st clss or not does not give you any job.it only avails you the opportunity of meeting with employers.Thats all. The reason behind this 2.1 2.2 thing is just a way of managing the crowd not that anybody is better.
Just keep praying and working hard
GOD IS ABLE

Become your own Boss instead of wasting time looking for a job......Cosmetics Business is booming please take advantage!!!

Why is it difficult to make a 1st class in University.

And beside I made 2.2 in Poly but I tried my best ooooo.

But to God be the glory, I got work on nairaland.

You can see I have resumed to my work.

In my honest opinion;
There's no reason in the world why any University student should graduate with less than a 2.1.


So if you couldn't excel in a University,

No employer believes you will in his business.

What does Buhari has that he become President? Does he has WAEC but he become President? I does not knows why people does not believe that you can does anything in Nigeria.

Competition. Duh.

you can create a job

It is because there's no job for even first class...... Maybe you should ask the federal government sha.

Competition.

The pyramid is broader at the bottom.

yes! I booked space...see my signature.

Is 2.2 actually a good result?

grade is rubbish. show us wat u can do, shikana

OP go and learn skills and stop asking silly questions. Practicals is not theory. He who gets the work done,gets the job. Unless na connection.

...

Simple reason is...

with 2.1, it means you are improving. That is, you are excelling. from low IQ(2) to high IQ(1)
So employers can take you.

But for the 2.2, it shows nothing but stagnation. u re stock in 2 (where the 2.1. guy has left).

its not only 2.2 ooo.i graduated with 2.1 yet i have been unable to get a job for like two month plus .

Has nothing to do with your grades, there are basically no jobs.

There are lots of first class, 2:1, Msc and even PhD owners looking for job, don't go the victims mentality way.

Because there is a difference between them
I think HRs use it as a means of reducing their own workload. It's all about the competition, few jobs...so many applicants.

2.1 doesn't give you a job, but it makes you have more shots at getting a job. If you eventually don't get one out of the several opportunities, your village people must be involved.

It is already a lot difficult to get a job with a 2.1.. Even First class sef... In your next life, try and make a 2.1.

coz no jobs even for 2-1....create something for yourself

You have 2.2 and you are computer illiterate then who gonna employ you

Try harder to master some skill very well

Forget grades

Some employers looks at your person as a whole

Nigerians should stop having this mentality. Having 2.2 doesn't make it difficult to get a job. You won't be given any job if you don't impress the interviewers. Your poor performance during interview is not as a result of your 2.2.

In my office, many 2.1s and 2.2s are employed as long as you passed your interview.

Why is your opinion always different from others?

Why will someone graduate with 2:2 in the first place? Of course, getting a job is hard even for the First and second class upper graduates but being on 2:2 places one at a greater disadvantage unless of course you know the higher ups.

because employers dont want olodo.
btw, i graduated with a pass. mind you pass is lower than 3rd class
and i presently employ all those book worms.
i make them know i am a pass holder and there are worthless

Because they'd rather you create jobs.

2:1 is a way of managing the Public, i have seen 2:2 employing 2:1 at the end........

HushPuppi doesnt knw wat a 2:1 is, but the main reason they deal with 2:1 mostly is cuz they believe thats where good people belong........does who flirt and do cultism in school end up with 2:2 mostly and you wont want such people loitering ur work space.

If You can't excel in School, how can you excel in a Competitive Working Environment.
