Waiting in The Waiting Room For 3:30mins by abjonline(m): 10:07pm On Apr 27, 2023
Guys, why are recruiting firms in Nigeria this wicked? I was invited for an interview which was to start by 9am. As at 12:30pm, I was still in the waiting room.
Why can't they give time to each person instead of inviting everybody to join at the same time?
Eventually, I had to log out when I was tired.
This is wickedness oo

The problem is that most recruiters see themselves as semi-gods. You can easily perceive the air of pride & arrogance all around them. This is not a test of patience but sheer irresponsibility.

In Nigeria, human dignity is never respected, especially towards Job seekers. It is inhuman to keep people waiting unnecessarily without a reason or an apology

Know this and know peace, we are what we are by the Grace of God.

Recruiting firms that already have their own chosen candidates for the Job grin... The Interview is mostly to keep up an appearance of a legit selection...

Nigerians accuse Buhari of nepotism and corruption, while most Nigerians are terribly nepotistic and corrupt even in their small roles.. Buhari is the true personification of the average Nigerian..

To show how bad the situation is, even sharing rice in a Nigerian wedding is aggressively controlled by Cliques and Caucuses, friends, committees, Church groups, etc.. If you attend a Nigerian wedding without belonging to the dominant caucus there, You will watch people get their 3rd plate of food while you are left with Eva wine and Bigi Cola grin

It is an annoying situation but you got to keep applying to other jobs and message or call the company to remind them of the interview

Have had these experiences on 2 different occasions, those guys feel like small gods,thinking since you're needy,you would await till whenever they are ready.
Nigerians are naturally wicked and full of pride especially when they possess what you need.

Just use it to learn perseverance. But that is wrong on their part.

We should treat people with dignity regardless.

That would be a very stupid thing to do though, why make people pass through cruel ordeals to test them?
If I could hazard a guess, I would say the company in question isn't worth the stress but OP is only trying hard to find a job that he would later regret.

needed to be sure you are not engaged and trying to attend their interview then still go for half day job in your suspected current job. Get it? It also means you have no option and so could be cheap.
