Good morning Everyone. Job seekers can search Facebook for a group called "Job Links Nigeria". It always has information on the latest job openings. It's very helpful with FREE materials, Dragnet, SHL, Workforce, Assessment day, GSE, Etc.

Information is key.


Cheers.

Lemme go ahead and answer the question.

#180K will do it for me

If u have really experienced what is job hunting,some of you here would embrace even 30k job for a start.its not easy once u re inexperienced so start from somewhere first to gather the experience.

Yall are funny peeps. Millions of people applied for the immigration job and the starting pay was around 70,000-100,000 naira.
Yall have to understand the realities on the ground. Get whatever you can to build experience.

Very well said Sire.. But realities or Not, I believe there are hundreds(I repeat, Hundreds) of companies in nigeria that pay fresh graduates #200K and above. It's another reality you need to put on your Cap.

peeps are landing massive Jobs, why can't we aspire to join the train.

I'm reading all the responses and smiling, my first salary was 32000 per month, before tax and pensions(including housing allowance),
this was back in 2010, it was a one man company in Abuja...was staying with family so I didn't have to pay for accomodation, them days were tough o...didn't have time to be forming love with anyone's daughter, everything about me was low key...lol.

A fresh graduate is a fresh graduate, you do not have anything to offer. You will be retrained.
Yes , there are hundreds that pay 200k and above, there are also millions that are looking for that job and cant find it . The realities on ground is not fair.

#200,000, but I dey school for France.

As a fresh graduate , never tell the interviewers an amount . tell them as it is on the company's payroll for your level . if you are further pressured , tell them you can come to an agreement after an offer has been made and that you are keen on developing yourself and adding to the company as you are being developed. its always a turn of for employers when fresh graduates without experience starts talking money knowing fully well the company would be training and adding lots to you . So , Mr OP if you are still a seeker , never tell the a figure. you may ace other questions but I bet you will never get the offer if the interviewers are not ok with your answer to this question.

on the other way round you can give them figures, but not an outrageous one that will scare off your potential employer! This shows the confidence you have in your self and doesn't make you look like a desperate job seeker bro.

abeg how much diamond bank dey pay graduates.

I know of persons who have graduated 7 years plus. earning 50 k in Victoria island.

So when I see some figures here I wonder how real they are.

Abi no be this country I dey?

Rexphobia:


Oga, my first job for bank na N3.4m per annum, so I no know Wetin u dey talk again o

Oga which bank? The highest paying bank for entry level is AccessBank and its almost N3m per annum. And since you said its your first job, it's definitely gonna be entry level.

Oh well I'm no longer a fresh graduate so make una dey talk make I read

Never give figures as a fresh graduate . ofcourse there are ways you can let the company know your worth and confidence and that not by telling them figures .you can let them know your worth when you are asked " why should we hire you "' or why do you want to work for us " . at this time you can sell your worth and confidence . you are a fresh graduate with nothing to offer . its a turn of when you start mentioning figures. your confidence tells in your answers in other questions too but never in the salary question as a fresh graduate. if you may know , your desperation does it as a fresh graduate.

#120,000 as a freshman, in the next two years #450,000 (monthly)
*hides face*

Coz I've gat no experience and I'd be developing myself... I'd start with 150k but my minimum is a 100k! Nothing less or I go learn trade in drugs... drugs as in medicine o!

Victoriousvic:
N80,000

Why did u seal ur mouth?

No crime in even doing a job for free if you are sure the experience you will get there will help you climb the career ladder. i have done some voluntary IT jobs before getting my a proper IT job. got my experience and then moved on the the next highest bidder.

Experience is much more important for a fresh graduate than salary.

During interview, you can call any reasonable offer. you don't want to sell yourself short. Maybe a research on the company can give you an idea on how they pay their employees.

petra22:

As a fresh Nigerian graduate, you are worth nothing. Get off whatever you are smoking. That's the reason they train you. YOU ARE ONLY WORTH WHATEVER the company is willing to pay you

OP , A structured company will not even put that question the way you have put it as a fresh graduate ." how much will you like to be paid ?" is like they have millions to pay you These questions come this way ,
what are your earnings/ salary expectations ?
what do you epect from our company as it concerns renumeration?
how much do you expect to earn?
They will never want you to think they got millions to give.

#500 000 per second.

I am not arguing with you, but there are factors such as age, marriage status and in few cases your class of degree.

shrimati:

whats the name of the company ? I just said a structured company ? Not every company is structured or have got an arranged system of functions.
