I think it works out cheaper to use the Nigerian (International ) License first before Switching to the Full License than using the Provisional. For me, it was also about £1200 for the 1st year and Subsequent year was about £630 (I did the automatic test and also pass plus ). Pass plus will give you some discount but check with the insurer first. Tier4Dependant: 1 Like 1 Share |

It seems insurance price depends on the type of car someone drives too… Is insurance price the same for all cars? Cos I remembered when I was using Lexus IS230, I was paying £160 monthly, switched to BMW series 1 then tax became £30 for a year then insurance got reduced to £92.8 or something a month… The same can’t be said for those using 2020 and up Audi, Benz or BMW domin8: |

I think your provisional might be cost-effective if you are hoping to save some money. They'd expect that you would always have an experienced driver with you when driving. My premium with provisional licence was £553 and it increased by £222 when I passed. Tinyemeka: |

@Aphrodite007, @Lagosismyhome, @heroshark. Thank you for bringing up this convo about PSV and everything you said is valid. However, there are many layers to it and I have questions @aphrodite007 - are these people getting good jobs, but not with sponsorship or they are not getting jobs at all? I asked because there were so many jobs and not enough people to do it as of January and that dwindled as the fin year ended. If they had a "good enough" job, and performing why would any sensible HR let them go knowing they would spend more to backfill the role? As an aside, on the issue of "big boys" in Nigeria - sometimes 'big boy' can make things clumsy. I saw the CV of two of my husband's friends - I wouldn't interview them with that CV tbh. They had loads of experience and had everything on their CVs. I got a headache from reading the 4 pages CV. CV got revamped, one got a job 2 weeks after and the other has been getting calls and now interviewing.' @heroshark raised some valid points about upskilling, preparedness etc. There are lot of students around me and many of them got sponsorship whilst my brother is in a care job. A lady whom I accommodated interviewed with a lot of big firms but didn't pass their interviews. We all know there is a lot to interviews beyond skills. From day one, she knew what she wanted and went for it - it was a matter of time. She eventually got sponsored by NHS. Whilst I am helping other people rewrite cvs, prep for interviews, upskill and motivate them, I have never seen my brother's cv or heard him say he has an interview somewhere. Even though he studied a lucrative course - add a bit of Excel proficiency, and SQL for beginners, the guy will be hotcake but I have realised not everyone is driven. I told a guy to send me his cv and portfolio so I can refer him to recruiters especially the ones interested in black/minorities. The guy hasn't come back till date. I have met people who got sponsored jobs before they finished uni. I can go on and on. There is luck/grace and whatnot but there is something the 5% are doing that the 95% are not doing. I have seen it over and over again. It takes dedication and grit and not everyone has it. I may be wrong - happy to learn because the tuition fee my brother paid still dey pepper me. 21 Likes |

Good evening guys, Quick one please, is an employer required to demand sick note for just one day leave considering the person has been overstressed and doesn't want to put her clients at risk. I mean not being in optimal condition to carry out duty effective? Because going through gov.uk and other websites, one doesn't require to show it unless you are off work for 5 working days/1 week. The employer is just trying to prove difficult because the person is question said she can't make it for work the following next due to work and exam stress. How can one get sick leave (self certified) or what else can be done? |

GPs will only give sick notes for sickness 7 days and over. If you want for less than 7 days, i think that comes at a cost. Self certification is just you letting your employer know that you're sick and unable to come to work while complying with their policy on reporting sickness - some have forms for you to fill while others will take your word for it. Some will have you fill out a form upon your return to work so you'd need to find out what the process is with your employer. You can also download the self-certification form online and complete it if that is what your employer wants =>> https://www.google.com/search?q=self+certification+form&oq=self&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j69i57j69i65l2j46i199i433i465i512j0i67i131i433i650j0i67i650j0i131i433i512j0i20i131i263i433i512j0i512.1985j0j7&client=ms-android-samsung-ss&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8&chrome_dse_attribution=1 OmichaelO: 2 Likes 1 Share |
