@Poster, do not Ι“e discouraged. You are not the problem you employer may just have rethink about it.

For you to attend interviews with others and came out victoriously means you are good. So, don't doubt your strength.

Things happen for reasons and its just a matter of time. In future, you will remember it and laugh by the grace of God.

Cheer up and believe in your self.

Intellectuals and the good people of nairaland. I just experienced one of the biggest shocks of my life.

As a student of the federal university, I saw a publication for the post of a front desk at a big cyber cafe close to the north wing of our school gate. I applied and followed the recruitment exercise which took 3 weeks of test and interview.

Out of 15 of us that applied for the job of 25k per month, I was picked. I loved it because it only start from 4pm till 9pm. Normally our lectures is from 7am till 1pm. I was happy because it will help me save for my school fees and I hoped to liaison with the students there to learn graphic designing. A skill I love but finance is a burden to enrol and to get a PC.

I was told to resume on Monday. I went there in the evening and the owner came and say my services are no longer needed. I was shocked. I asked him what I did? He didn't answer me. It was the other staff, the manager that told me he will communicate it to me. From Monday till now, I didn't hear from them.

Please, what should I do? I am confused. For those who had similar experience what was your cause. I am so so sad with this. My hope is dashed.


Don't think about it. Move on and keep trying. Don't stop.

Ogbeni, some Pple (Graduates) still do 17K Jobs!πŸ˜’

Many Polytechnic Graduates in my Hood are IDLE!. πŸ˜”

Either They Do it or Go into YAHOO or Bet9Ja Hustle!. πŸ˜•πŸ€¨

This is very depressing.

I see things like this and I genuinely hurt. Makes me feel like being in a place where I can reach out and give helping hands to capable young men suffering out there.

If you know of any such graduates with the intellectual efficiency to get things done, have one or two of them mail me here. I can offer them free training on the skillsets listed in my bio for a month or two, then give them the extra benefits of exploring my existing contacts so they can start up on their own.

It's unthinkable for a graduate to be earning 17K monthly.

The company might have taken a financial blow that very day.

I know it sounds far-fetched, but shit happens.

It most likely has nothing to do with what you said or did.

1. Its your first day, why didn't you go earlier?

2. How did you dress?

I can go on on on...

Just save yourself the stress and ask the manager. They owe you an explanation.

I will advise Nigerian youths never to apply for a job at integrated service. Coco warehouse in ladipo oyewole. Off oba akran Ikeja, directly opposite Guinness. That man can hire you now and fire you in the next one hour. If you manage to stay for at least 3 month I promise you that man will give you BP.

If you didn't get it... It's not meant for you.
I admire the fact that you want to work and earn a living though.
May God bless your hustle... Amen

When you were employed, was the resumption time duly communicated to you if yes then you've nothing wrong but if no,you should have ask for written documents like acceptance letter that states clearly what's expected of you.
Just calm down something better is always ahead.
